1992 The Garden of Priapus: Sexuality and Aggression in Roman Humor , revised edition, Oxford University Press, →ISBN page 88 :Most of the twelve Caesars were rumored to have been licentious as both adulterers and homosexuals (not that the two were mutually exclusive, as will be seen), and Gaius and Nero were both supposed to have been adulterers, active homosexuals, and pathics. According to Suetonius, Julius Caesar was cuckolded by Clodius (Iul . 6, 74) but was himself so noted an adulterer that Pompey (lul . 50) called him "Aegisthus" (mock epic again); and his foreign affairs were the talk of Rome and of the army (Iul , 49–52).
