From their conversation a number of nuanced insights about gender roles sex in society and the subjugation of fundamental human instincts appear. Socrates Platos teacher challenges traditional wisdom in the discussions conclusion by arguing for spiritual love as a means of transcendence. The Symposium skillfully weaves together various perspectives and notions about the nature of love whether it be as a reaction to beauty a cosmic power or a way to goodness.
