      Probably thinks it’s just a normal servant or slave, not a sexual one.

          To my understanding, that’s the way ancient Romans viewed it. For lack of more delicate and concise words, it manly to top, unmanly to bottom. Gay sex was acceptable if the sexual roles reflected their social roles.
