Is being gay an Anglo trait? For example, in Shakespeares twelfth night, Viola disguises herself as Cesario and Olivia falls in love with her… also Orsino marries Viola still disguised as Cesario. Why are anglos degens?

Literature is inherently gay. Print ink decreases your testosterone and gives you XX chromosomes. Is true

I make my wife read a book a day so her boobs get bigger but because she’s a woman she doesn’t learn anything. I make her read girl books too, like the goldfinch or some shit

Shakespeare had a secret boy lover. Also twelfth night is set in a fictionalised portrayal of Italy, which is why there’s such a prominence in gay themes

The Greeks were keen on boys long before the Saxons entered recorded history.
You’ll find more open male-male adoration in Plato than in the entire Shakespearean canon.

Wrong. Ilyria is Albania.
>>24555397
Wrong. It came from Egyptians who are Anglo-saxons (not black, not jewish), and Shakespeare was monogamous and chastepilled because he wasnt a degen nor anglo-saxon.

>chastepilled
If we know anything about Shakespeare, it’s his birthday (and death day), and that he was miserable in marriage.

Seriously considered, Shakespeare evidently thought the idea of women dressing up as men to be cute.
