Records show that the ancient Greek system used sex as the foundation for human identity and as a way to organize societal norms on gender. Much like the Euro-American sex and gender system, both systems marginalizes social and legal worth of human desire and intimacy. Under the social ladder of Hetero-patriarchy women, sexual minorities, and other additional marginalized sexualities are most affected in society. People who are born with a penis are expected to conform to a particular social personality and those who are born with a vagina conform to a polar opposite social personality; those who do not conform to these societal expectations are ostracized and are disclaimed as "sissies" or "tomboys."
