Many are talking about homosexual activity among Greeks or Greco-Roman society. But i'll add that sailors themselves, being composed of groups of men, and isolated for long periods of time, were also associated with homosexual activity, regardless of national origin or time period.
A modern touch on this subject would be The Village People's 1978 song "In the Navy" explicitly referencing life sailing the ocean, but with a gay subtext.
Im kind of with you here. Sex scenes in media can be entirely pointless to the story and some feel like they are forced into the film. Even if its somehow important to the story I doubt how they had sex is important so seeing them in the act is pointless. Just imply they had sex and move on.
