Oh yeah true, but I know people dressing in drag was pretty common. I feel like people like the Catholic Church which is more of an organization than a church have taken that concept out of history claiming it never existed in their fight to keep people cisgendered (ew) and tbh I feel like the Ancient and classical world was much more open to the concept of being gay surprisingly.

1) There's a tomb of a supposed gay couple dating back to Ancient Egypt around the Middle Kingdom

2) Athens was gay man...so gay.....well gay in a sense they accepted a relationship between a younger man and an older man. Women could even be in relationships together.

3) Chinese Emperors would keep male lovers as well and look up the story of Emperor Ai and the cut sleeve
