Agrippina: Rome's Most Powerful Empress?
Betwixt The Sheets: The History of Sex, Scandal & Society
Agripeina's Rip
In a lot of the modern like film adaptation she's actually seen having an incestuous relationship with her son. Incest is a thing that gets thrown around loads in the Roman Empire and if you don't like somebody you accuse them of sleeping with their sister. Anytime you see a woman in power and there are men near her it kind of doesn't matter if she was sleeping with them because they definitely got something other than sex out of it. As long as she didn't seem to have a problem with it then fine but she did have this power and she does have this influence that they can use.
