Dear Tumblr, come read about ancient lesbians! This is a free anthology of Ancient Greek and Latin works by/about wlw (translated into English), and itβs the first sourcebook specifically dedicated to wlw!
The translations and commentaries are done by queer scholars, but itβs inclusive toward a non-scholarly audience. And the project director hopes that βnew creations, texts, films, video, may emerge [β¦] and contribute to forging a new LGBTQI+ mythology that would - finally - not be based on shortcuts and reductive views about women in ancient societyβ (issue 1 p. 6).
So please come check it out and then make a bunch of art or stories about it (and show us!)
I know we usually do this kinda post during pride month but every month is pride month when you're gay so...
Reminder that if you're queer and you enjoy any of the rights you have, you must be grateful for trans and gnc people of color that were in the frontlines of the fighting
βAt this point I have a request for our fans. If any of you in any way hate homosexuals, people of different colour, or women, please do this one favor for us β leave us the fuck alone. Donβt come to our shows and donβt buy our records.β
Oh no π¨people think that fictional character is queer π±I must make a YouTube video on all the reasons why they CANNOT EVER be queer π
STRAIGHT GUYS CAN HAVE EMOTIONS TOOOOO obviously that's why people think that there's no reason to do any research because there's like no possible other reasons why people might think he's gay it's not like he's a queercoded character from a queercoded book series from a time period when you weren't allowed to be gay.π‘
Obviously, he can't be because heβs not human and can't do the unholy hokey pokey (I'm trying to avoid inappropriate language bear with me here) so he totally can't be queer because relationships always have to revolve around that.π€
