Here’s another book about the myth focusing on the seasonal religious and liminal rites. Here’s a whole bunch of myths and hymns that talk about her Queen of the Underworld badassery!! Here’s a link to another book that talks about Persephone’s rise to power as a result of her willingly eating the pomegranate seeds. (Which sounds a bit like Hades and Persephone to anyone who’s ever dabbled in things like explication and context) Here’s a whole book on the subject of Ancient Greek wedding custom and its conflation with funeral rites. With the father’s permission, which Hades got before he took her away. So here’s some info on Ancient Greek wedding traditions which ( oh my stars and garters!!) included abducting the bride.

Including the… epic hymn that first told this story? You know what’s in that original source material… right? Is OP aware that oh so many books exist on this subject?Īnd that almost universally the ones authored by people with doctorates in classicism and mythology disagree with OP? I’m not sure whether I should laugh or cry. So the next time someone tries to tell you that being LGBT is wrong because it goes against traditional Chinese values, tell them to go fuck themselves with 3000 years of Chinese queerness. So they adopted Western ways and discarded their previous attitudes about homosexuality. And the Qing government was so anxious to seem modern and be seen as equals to their Western counterparts. That’s because of the late Qing years where Western influences entered the country and brought their gross ass homophobic attitudes with them. “But WAIT, Modern China is a hardass about homosexuality!!!! How do you explain that!” They didn’t care about the gender of the emperor’s favourite lover but rather the fact that the emperor was too horny to get shit done. That’s right - the issue wasn’t homosexuality but rather the hormones of the emperor. The lightest sentence you could get was slavery where you were bound to the army.Īlso scholars wrote essays criticising the boyfriends of emperors, saying that they distracted the emperor from work blah blah blah but THEY ALSO DID THE SAME FOR THE CONCUBINES. Have sex with a minor, you die regardless of whether it was consensual. Rape was punishable by death, regardless of the gender of the victim. There were also really strict laws about male rape. These laws were passed to stop the spread of prostitution and laws targeting prostitution in general were pretty common in Chinese history. These laws were outlawing homosexual stuff were all very specific.įor example, there were laws banning male prostitution, but no laws against homosexuality. What’s the best part? All the laws and criticism about homosexuality in Ancient China were all about shit like prostitution and rape.


In fact homosexuality was so okay that in Shiji, which is basically the Bible of Ancient Chinese history, there is an entire section dedicated to the gay lovers of emperors. Like we have gay emperors and feudal lords, lesbian princesses who were girlfriends with their serving maids, gay ass poets who wrote lots of poems about that one courtesan who played the guzheng so well. Ancient China was super chill about homosexuality okay. NO OKAY THIS IS REALLY COOL SO SHUT UP AND LISTEN KIDS.

The Jungle (personally I don’t like this formatting, but the site doesn’t look sketchy so…) - there’s also this which is the proper book format in a pdf, but it’s directly photocopied so it might be hard to read some of the print
