For folks that keep trying to insist transsexualism was a thing that was invented in America in the 1950s, keep in mind that the Chevalier D’Eon had her name and gender marker legally changed by the court of Louis XVI in France ten years before the United States even had a Constitution.

Her chosen name was Lia De Beaumont. Can people lease stop dead-naming Chevalière Lia? She is a very important historical trans and intersex woman. She didn’t just get her name and gender recognized, she blackmailed the king of France into recognizing her name and gender and paying for her an entire new wardrobe. In addition to being a knight she was a secret agent so she had all kinds of dirt on the king. Later in her life she moved to England, wrote a memoir, and opened a fencing school.

holy shit??? #womenwhoneedmovies

She was also a spy in Catherine the Great’s court!

Yeah it’s cool to pretend you hate this site despite logging in via oxygen mask every day like a coward but I’m gonna miss this site when it tanks. Never have I interacted with a piece of media that is this entertaining and outrageous. It’s historical.

Tumblr’s polarity is truly only outmatched by Twitter to me. There are amazing and creative people here and then there are demons and scoundrels and the insane amount of micro-societies created by both would make any sociologist have a field day. You are always two degrees of separation away from mind-blowing confusion if you click any link on your dashboard. The constant stimulation…is terrifying.

This boy is trying to get a nude from my friend but she’s just acting like she doesn’t know what “a nude” is.

Lawful chaotic
