So Quintilian, Declam. III., says: Siculi in tantum vitio regnant, ut obscoenis cupiditatibus natura cesserit, ut pollutis in femineam usque patientiam maribus incurrat iam libido in sexum suum. (The Sicilians are so predominant in vice, that Nature has ceased to satisfy their fool lusts,—that males are debauched to a feminine passivity (to suffer treatment proper to women), and men fall back for the gratification of their concupiscence on their own sex).

Seneca, Epist. 95., Libidine vero ne maribus quidem cedunt, pati natae. (In concupiscence they yield not even to males, though born to the passive part).
