The term Parthenon comes from parthenos which means virgin, the Greeks dedicated it to Athens, and both the Greek Orthodox and the Roman Catholics dedicated it to the Virgin Mary. The place also served as one of the garrisons of the city, which was quite defensible, when Rainerio Acciaioli laid siege to the city with the help of the Navarrese, the Catalan garrison resisted for three years in the Acropolis. R10 Actually the Parthenon has been both a church and a mosque, under the different polities that occupied Attica, it went from an Greek Orthodox church, to a Roman Catholic, back to Greek Orthodox, and finally an Islamic mosque. His opponent reacts with disgust, and shames Socrates for bringing such things up, and attempts to say that's "something different", which Socrates knows isn't true. Socrates isn't only humorous, he's also willing to be indecorous, and as his adversary is maintaining that pleasure is the highest good, Socrates retorts that if that was true then being a kinaidos would be the "climax", that's like nowadays saying the n-word to prove a point. But the latter, the kinadoi, were considered monstrous and dangerous, one such example of this fact is Plato's Gorgias. The Greeks didn't equate the philopaides (pederasts) and the kinadoi ("faggots"), the first they considered relatively normal, particularly if that person didn't go further than contemplativeness, when they went further than touching that wasn't considered much acceptable (and could be a crime), but obviously many rich men and women could do as they please with lowly children, just as there were hetairai (female prostitutes) there were also children being sold by their parents or engaging themselves in that, both women and children were under the supervision of a police force particularly designed to suppress prostitution, which shows that adult male prostitutes weren't particularly popular, but they certainly existed (though most probably used mainly by rich women).
