First sentence, ok I'm with you.

Having sex with other men (topping specifically) was just something that men did

And the bottoms were not men then? I understand what you're referring to, you just need to think more critically about it.

I'm not really a scholar, but it seems to fit to me.

Sounds pretty gay book bro

Maybe i should have specified 'straight' men (as in the culturally assumed 'default'), but all I've heard about ancient sexuality has been through an incredibly homophobic culture, so you might have a pretty good point there.
