It appears the Romans believed that Gender is fluid. "Romans were aware of gender fluidity".
The question I pose to YOU, why do yo not accept the fact that Gender is fluid? In the year 218AD, the Romans knew all about it.
Along with the fluidity, came the promiscuity. It is all documented.
As they say.. When in Rome... Enjoy.
A museum is to relabel its display about a Roman emperor after concluding that he was in fact a trans woman.
North Hertfordshire Museum will now refer to emperor Elagabalus with the female pronouns of she and her.
It comes after classical texts claim the emperor once said "call me not Lord, for I am a Lady".
A museum spokesperson said it was "only polite and respectful to be sensitive to identifying pronouns for people in the past".
The museum has one coin of Elagabalus, which is often displayed amongst other LGBTQ+ items in its collection.
It said it consulted LGBTQ+ charity Stonewall to ensure "displays, publicity and talks are as up-to-date and inclusive as possible".
It comes after classical texts quote the emperor saying "call me not Lord, for I am a Lady".
