The history of homosexuality has overwhelmingly focused on the sexual aspects of queer relationships. This focus is fair due to the fact that affection, an intangible concept, is much more difficult to prove than sexual acts, a physical manifestation of feelings. In ancient Greece and Rome, ideas of same-sex relationships also primarily centered around sex as acts of care and power, simultaneously. However, as the years went on, philosophers such as Plato and Cicero began to formulate theories of "true" or "ideal" forms of friendship as non-sexual types of love that could only be experienced by men of greater understanding. The ideas of friendship as created by the two ancient philosophers carried over into medieval Europe. Same-gender sex became more vilified, but expressing feelings through a "spiritual friendship," so named by Aelred of Rivaulx, were actually celebrated. As with the Greeks and Romans, medieval people did not believe that women were capable of friendships like this. Women, despite prevailing medieval theories, were quite able to cultivate affectionate relationships with one another through spiritual friendship, an expression of their love for God through their relationship and other "lesbian-like" behaviors. This thesis will examine the non-sexual relationships of medieval women who expressed care for each other using the aforementioned lesbian-like behaviors.
