SACRAL MYKONOS – MOUNT ATHOS HOMOSEXUALITY UNDER COVER OF CELIBACY? Byzantine Tower of Prosphorio in Ouranoupoli, the ferry port for visiting Mount Athos monasteries on the Holy Mountain, Greece, photo by Ivan Kralj In the times when Byzantine architecture was popping up on Mt Athos, some women managed to avoid the Byzantine Avaton more easily than today when the Empire is gone The story of women and Mount Athos is constantly raising controversy.
Some female prime ministers in the European Union, as well as the European Parliament itself (in 2003), requested to lift the ban, as Avaton is violating the UN’s core principle of gender equality.
They did not succeed. Mt Athos managed to remain probably the largest area on the planet where women are forbidden.
The first women who breached the Avaton had a lot of money.
In the 14th century, Serbian empress Jelena, the wife of the emperor Dusan, was fleeing the plague epidemics in the Balkans. Monks, however, didn’t allow Jelena’s feet to touch the ground, so she was constantly carried around by her servants.
A century later, another Serbian woman was visiting Mount Athos. Princess Mara Brankovic was granted the entrance permit because of her influence in the Ottoman Empire.
In ancient Greece, a woman was not persona non grata in sacred places. Actually, a Greek woman named Pythia became the priestess and one of the most powerful figures of her time.

Maryse Choisy, a woman disguising herself with moustache in order to infiltrate the men-only Greek peninsula Mount Athos Maryse Choisy reached Mount Athos monasteries disguised as a man. Or so she claimed Then, some women literally broke in. In 1929, French writer Maryse Choisy claimed she underwent a mastectomy and disguised herself as a sailor, only to check what all the fuss about Mt Athos was.
She ended up writing a book about her supposedly month-long undercover Mount Athos visit, “Un Mois Chez Les Hommes” (“A Month with Men”). She described how the “kinky monk” continually spoke to her (him) of his desire for making love. Maryse’s Mount Athos experience was debunked as fake.
In 1932, one woman disguised as a sailor managed to sneak in! It was Aliki Diplarakou, the first Greek winner of the Miss Europe title.
Not knowing that she was a woman, one of the young monks at Vatopedi Monastery (today unofficially considered to be the monastery with the largest concentration of Mount Athos gay priests) flirted with her. This story ended up with an anathema: Patriarch Photios II publicly cursed the miss for her act!
Aliki Diplarakou, the first Greek Miss Europe, who disguised as a man in 1932, in order to visit Mount Athos monasteries on the Holly Mountain, Greece Aliki Diplarakou learned that you can get anathematized if you breach the ban on female access to Mount Athos Maria Poimenidou, a woman from Thessaloniki, successfully disguised as a man and infiltrated among the monks of Mount Athos in 1953.
Monks had enough, and Greece passed the law that penalizes such offenses with 12 months in jail! So you’ve been warned!
As for Mount Athos homosexuality behind the walls of the monasteries, the public debated about it more than several times.
Greek press went so far that it reported about motorboats serving Athos harbors with male prostitutes, and published that young boys were even being kidnapped for the monks’ needs.
Father Michael Haztiantoniou, who lived there for 15 years, publically spoke about the cover-ups both for “gay incidents” in Mount Athos brotherhoods, as well as the use of psychotropic drugs in controlling the monks."
