They became nobility and bureaucrats during an extremely odd deviant period of their history, during which they were a warrior class without wars and active government efforts to isolate them socially and economically. They were not the equivalent of knights and nobility for the vast majority of...

. . . That would be during the Edo period, which I specifically mentioned. Before the Edo period, samurai were no more hereditary than all occupations (including peasants or merchants or artisans) generally were, and had no special rights or privileges. They were just the warriors and ran the...

If you want to call literally every military class in world history "nobles" because occupations in all classes generally stay within families and heavily armed people are treated better than peasants, feel free as I laugh at you. The samurai were not a closed hereditary group until the Edo...

Extreme off topic, but with multiple people being wrong on the internet, a response is warranted. The Samurai were a warrior class only the upper reaches of which can be compared to European nobility. Lower ranking Samurai possessed no lands and fought for a salary. Even with your pop culture...

As if you've cited any evidence. Samurai weren't nobles btw, that's yet another blatant falsehood you've pushed, and you are flat out ignoring all the other examples of pederastic homosexual culture. Are Harvey Milk and George Takei ancient Greek Nobles? And lol no, you were the one to bring up...

. . . Also samurai, dynastic China, Afghan tribes, Victorian homosexual underground, Harvey Milk, and George Takei. Also, lol at the "nobles/well off" line as if that's not because almost all records preserved are about them. So, animals that don't care for children still don't care for...

If pederasty isn't what's hardwired, then why is the primary expression always pederasty? In any case, I don't think the homosexual umbrella is a single thing at all, that's purely an academia and media enforced construct. It's really many different disorders, with those driving pederasty being...

Calling ancient people "straight" is much of a laugh as calling them "gay". That one needed to, and had a social and familial responsibility to reproduce was uncontested for most of history, outside some religious circumstances. Pederasty was always at the forefront of almost every (I want to...

It's funny that having sex with young boys predates anything resembling the modern laundered conception of "gay" by millennia. Male homosexuality wasn't separated from boy sex until what, the 80s? 90s? Pederasty was the basic model for male homosexuality in the West, the Sinosphere, the Islamic...
