Today In Gay History


July 16, 110 - Antinous was born in Bithynia. The Emperor Hadrian was smitten with him at first glance. Antinous was 15 at the time. From that time on he never left the emperor's side. On a trip to Egypt he drowned in the Nile. Some say it was because of a prophecy that had declared the Hadrian would die unless a sacrifice were made to the river.
