Have you caught wind of the latest TikTok trend where women ask men when they last pondered the Roman Empire? Surprisingly, a significant number of men confess to thinking about it at least once a week. But why is this the case? While the exact reasons remain unknown, there is one intriguing theory.
One straightforward explanation revolves around notions of masculinity and authority. The Roman Empire conjures images of warfare, politics, dominance, and elite power—attributes traditionally associated with masculinity. Perhaps this historical fascination stirs thoughts of grandeur and authority among modern men.
So, if you’re curious, why not ask the men in your life if they, too, harbor thoughts of the Roman Empire? Who knows, it might unveil a latent desire for world domination encoded in their DNA.
