Caesar had a tendency to read in silence (ie in his head) which was unusual in Roman society, being seen as furtive and secretive.
Now that’s fascinating, I’d never heard that. I suppose it might have derived from earlier times, when the nobility wasn’t necessarily literate itself (and so would have a scribe reading aloud)?
Anyway, the chicks sure loved that combover. (Or maybe it was the insane wealth)

Not sure about the exact origin of it, but apparently it influences the composition of Roman prose. It’s meant to be read aloud, and the cadence of the original Latin is made for it. Literacy was expected of the elite at least since the early Republic, so the tradition would have to pre-date the Republic entirely.
The Romans were an extremely non-private culture, so it may just be an outgrowth of that.

Caesar was a major slut before he became fabulously wealthy (or bald, for that matter), so I guess that gilded tongue had uses outside of the political arena 😏

Sadly unlikely. Cunnilingus was seen as degrading for the man.

So was bottoming, but we all know Caesar was the Queen of Bithynia!
