As much fun as it may be to make blanket statements about still highly contested mythical races. It would be nice to stay on topic and perhaps open another thread for the other topic.

I'm not so sure it's off topic. The Amazons were, as he says, real, not mythical, and I'm quite sure they indulged in lesbian sex, as well as heterosexual when they wanted children. Nor were they the only female warriors in ancient times. From what I can recall (no citations, though, sorry) homosexual warriors, both male and female, were at one time considered superior warriors.

I agree with Ian, they are not a myth. Don't know about his details though.
