I picked-up on that note, but there is some historical debate about whether the translations of Alexander's relationships. The debate has not been closed, and it might be that he had affection for other men, but affection can be more than one thing. There is physical affection, and emotional affection. In many societies it is not uncommon for men to have very close emotional affection for one another without showing any physical affection.
