I seriously doubt that quote can be accurately attributed to Aristotle. His writings discuss different forms of attraction and friendship, but this specific wording and concept of 'disease' related to homosexuality seems anachronistic for 4th-century BC Greece. Can you provide a specific source from his works (e.g., Nichomachean Ethics, Politics) that contains this quote?

"in Nichomachean Ethics he literally puts homosexual relationships on the same level as the cannibalism of fetuses that the greeks found on the indians of the time." - random on x
