A British academic projecting “trans theory” onto the past has claimed that the graves of Anglo-Saxon warriors indicate that some among their ranks were transgender.

James Davison, a University of Liverpool PhD candidate and tutor of medieval history, has asserted that examining the graves of Anglo-Saxon warriors through the “lens of transness” suggests that there may have been trans warriors 1,500 years ago and that so-called transgender women may have been exalted in their society.

“Using approaches from trans studies – which acknowledge the potential for genders beyond a male-female binary in historical cultures – allows researchers to approach these burials more critically,” he wrote according to The Telegraph.

Davison claimed that deploying “the lens of trans theory and the 21st-century language of ‘transness’ has the potential to improve historians’ understanding of early Anglo-Saxon gender”.

“Presentism”

Yep, many Anglo-Saxon warriors were Trans and/or black Africans. Everybody who goes to the movies knows this.

With the Hollywood writers' strike, there is going to be a huge need for TV content coming up soon. If they are in need of a good comedy, putting this guy on TV to explain Queer Dark Ages Burial Studies would be laugh riot.

That’s why I don’t go to movies..................

And Richard III was black...................

I keep hooping “institutions of higher learning” have hit peak stupid but doesn’t look like that’s going to be any time soon.

Odd that none of the Piled Higher and Deeper candidates in the UK (or anywhere) ever note that Muhammad was a mass-murdering pedophile.

[Da Coyote]

Yeah, riiiiiiight.
How low “academia”has gone.

[Ex-Con777]

Obviously they transitioned back after death or this “scholar” wouldn’t have been able to tell male from female. Lipstick and makeup don’t last that long.

Perhaps they were actually a mix of Zulu and Incan ancestry.

Slow news day.

Clearly you weren't paying attention : )

Too lazy to post the “Sure, Jan.” .gif in response to this, but it seems most appropriate.

[Right Brother]

Even in the ‘Christian’ series The Chosen, Jesus’ father Joseph is portrayed as a sub-saharan black. Didn’t know the line of David originated in Nigeria.

Such insanity

Celtic women went to war with their men as a matter of life or death

Sure, put on your trans-colored glasses and then tell us how the Anglo-Saxons appear to you. 🙄

And people used to tisk-tisk me for listening to Air America back when it was on.

It was the best comedy on AM radio.
