https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enaree I was just reading about the seven sages and stumbled across this gem.
Not even the only example of transgender people being associated with divinity.
Always remember what they stole from you, for ye were gods and remain gods.
I’m a goddess and I use capitalised pronouns because fuck the patriarchy and fuck cis grammar
We’ve always existed, and often we wind up existing in similar roles. The gallae of Rome are another example, though not respected.
Also, yeah the Scythians were cool as fuck
We’ve always existed
Incidentally, We Have Always Existed is an enjoyable YT channel discussing trans people in history (mostly classic antiquity).
Thanks fam, looking forward to watching it.

Ah, I have a little bit of knowledge on a little part of this - namely, use of cannabis amongst the Scythians!
The Scythians then take the seed of this hemp and creep under the felt coverings, and then they throw the seed upon the stones which have been heated red-hot: and it burns like incense and produces a vapour so think that no vapour-bath in Hellas would surpass it: and the Scythians being delighted with the vapour-bath howl like wolves.[72]
Who are the Scythians?
They’re the original people that the Greek myths of Amazons are based on. Basically what I’m saying is, Wonder Woman is a trans stoner.
