LGBTQ vs Realism

The problem is, you’re perceiving the past through the lens of modern history-making. From the 1700s until the recent past, history generally but pre-modern and non-European especially was written with a very specific set of cultural and gender assumptions. Over the past few decades (what someone in this thread derisively called “Revisionist History”), historians and archaeologists have tried to stop working from these assumptions, and look at the actual evidence.

Jason just posted a good post on this issue which I’m going to cross post here.
