@Grace_OMalley_X Many Whites are too caught up in the gender wars to look at things like this with a good eye sadly.

When you read the great works of our tradition don’t just see them as works of art. See the life lessons in them and the heroic spirit that can inspire you. See Beowulf face the dragon and Wiglaf come to his aid. Look to embody this spirit.

@DobunniChvd I feel that if played right one good parry then katana guy is done

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 And even if the PIE or early PG words were neutral by the time hengist and horsa were written about the feminine term would have been cemented.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

Modern society seems unable or unwilling to understand deep male friendships. You see this most evidently in how they interpret Achilles and other historic/heroic men. To most moderns if you explain the mead hall and the heroic fraternity inherent to it they cry gay.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 Even in its proto-Germanic form it’s a female form and we’re talking about Anglo-saxons from a completely different language branch. The celts have little to do with this and broke of centuries ago.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 That’s the most retarded thing I’ve ever heard.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 I was looking for this to show that in context they had a name for male, female and nuteral horses. Making the leap from horsa/horse to mare unnecessary.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 https://t.co/f9D7rx2ylb except they have a word for a female horse.

@lovecraftiande1 mīere or mȳre is the old English for mare.

@lovecraftiande1 interpretations to be made. I’m by no means forcing it into a box I want I’m just arguing against another view to find the truth.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 You act like I’m making statements an accredited historian wouldn’t make. My post pointed out Achilles who in the source material doesn’t have a gay lover (but does get mad at his slave woman being taken). From what I could find it took the Greeks 2 centuries for gay

@lovecraftiande1 relationships”. The History of Homosexuality: Ancient Greece. I’m not going to even seriously talk about the Hangist and Hrosa thing because in most cases I’ve seen they’re considered brothers and your name translation is wrong from what I can find.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 Yeah I am going to say that because they didn’t. It was prominent at times yes but by no means was it ever “almost universal”. “The rules governing such relationships were strict. Several cities prohibited pederasty completely while others, such as Sparta, only permitted chaste

@lovecraftiande1 I’m not just “some Chud who doesn’t care about history” I’m an honors history major and plan on going into academics.

[andrew pickens @45_andrewp]

@lovecraftiande1 civilizations and cultures been shunned. My post was about how assumptions are made by moderns that have no understanding of male friendships that due to simple emotions these people must be lovers. It’s a faulty argument and is just used for political reasons.
