“kids today are so inappropriate with their sexting and nude pictures it’s so horrible!!” listen in the 1st century bc the noblewoman servilia sent a sexy letter to julius caesar while he was in a meeting of the senate, and cato thought it was evidence that caesar was part of a conspiracy and demanded to be able to read it, so basically cato read servilia’s sext to caesar in the middle of a goddamn senate meeting, so this isn’t really anything new
someone asked for a source so this is in both in plutarch’s life of cato the younger and in his life of brutus
The best part?
Servilia was Cato’s half-sister and Brutus’ mom
