Do U Know Anything About Non-binary Genders In Non-modern History?

Do u know anything about non-binary genders in non-modern history?

I do actually <: one of my favourite examples is Her Majesty the King, a pharaoh of ancient Egypt who took over after the death of her husband and was incredibly successful as a ruler. She changed her name to the male version and wore male regalia, but still used she/her pronouns. Most modern scholars refer to her as nonbinary or genderqueer. I can't for the life of me remember her real name right now, but if I do later I'll drop it in the comments.

Thank you for such an intelligent and interesting question dearest student /gen <:

For the nosy ask post, 44

44 (again, yay <:). did you know that there was a transmasc soldier in the civil war ? he was an irish immigrant that fought for the union (im pretty sure), and when he died and the military tried to deny him the proper funerary rites, his regiment-mates fought for him and made sure he had the proper honours at his burial <:

give me a couple hours to find his name honey and ill post it in the comments <:

personally i dont think ill ever really understand pushback against using queer to describe an lgbtq+ person (especially from/by the queer community), its honestly a beautiful word and while it's been used and may be continue to be used to hurt us sometimes, i just really like that word

op you're 100% in the right here (in my humble opinion), keep up the good work <:

I hold such a special place in my heart for quote "out dated" queer language. Like now terms like transexual, transvestite and such are not used frequently or even considered totally incorrect bordering on offensive and yet... I find the existence of it so comforting. In a world where we lost almost an entire generation of queer people to the AIDS crisis and where anti-queer specifically anti trans rhetoric is increasing exponentially the simple fact we have tangible linguistic proof of history and evolution as a community is so incredibly comforting.
