Plato not a proponent of Platonic love

ON PLATO: Saw this whilst flicking though the Herald the other day. "Plato never believed in Platonic love, says an academic who has unlocked the secret codes of the ancient Greek philosopher's writings. Despite giving his name to the notion that spiritual love without sex is the highest form of romance, Plato in fact celebrated eroticism and advocated a middle path, avoiding both promiscuity and abstinence." In other words, he simply had naming rights; he didn't occupy the building. How about that?
