Week 3- Socrates (Rejection)

The reading for my group project was actually very enjoyable even if it had some disturbing parts. I thought it was funny how Alcibiades showed up to Agathon's party completely hammered and attempted to seduce him. It was interesting to read about how Alcibiades switched to seducing Socrates as soon as he realized that Socrates was there. It was interesting that the longer I read, the more I realized that Alcibiades was a very obsessed stalker of Socrates. It even mentioned that he had beat Socrates before which was not what I expected from educated men of the time period. The craziest part of the story had to be at the end when it was made clear that neither Alcibiades nor Socrates were drunk at any point in the conversation contrary to what they attempted to make you think.
