They probally where! Just as there is great diffrences between you in Us and us here in Europe or between states in US and in Europe.
What goes for normal in Calefornia might not be accepted in Ohio, follow me?
Same thing here in europe. In Sweden we do some things one way and in denmark another. For example, To drink a few beer every day are in some circles here in Sweden considered to be a possetive sign of alcoholism, in Ireland it is just the way it is and noone would think it is to be a drunkard. In Sweden we tend to drink a bottle of vodka everey weekend and get pissed drunk, and that would be a true sign of alcoholism in Ireland.
In the same way the erotic standards of the roman empire most sertanly differed in different regions and classes! What went in the patrician famillys could probally be very much frowned upon in a workingclass town in Provincia Narboniensis! (Just wild guesses from my part, but you might catch my drift.)
