If I am mixing up stuff on the timeline, please correct me...
But didn't greek older men fuck younger men? Usually teacher, student thing... If I remember correctly... But those athletes probably had a teacher...
So these Athletes weren't just nude, they probably had gay sex.
The gay sex they did back then is what we would call rape today. It usually was pederasty. The young men was often a teen.
I am sorry if I made it sound differently. I intended to hint at that in regards of the "trans people are groomer" folks... I am sorry if I failed.
For anybody wanting to know more about the history behind this from /r/askhistorians' Iphicartes:

Roman yes. Greek I don't know.
I'm sure they oiled up each other.
