Consider also:

  1. “Death is as beautiful and necessary as the male body.”
  2. “Take me, who will!”
  3. Folktales from the Scottish Highlands — June 2023–April 2024, Edinburgh and/or Glasgow, UK (AB, SQ, SS ??)
  4. “The title ‘Venus of Milo’ is an argument in support of paragraphs 1 and 2, it being evident from this statement that the female body becomes beautiful in so far as it approximates to the male.”
  5. “The soul is beyond male and female as it is beyond Life and Death.”

I use affiliate links on this blog when possible. Affiliate links include Amazon, Bookshop, Abebooks; and less frequently Powell's and DriveThruRPG. I may earn a small commission if you click through and make purchases.

I run ads on this site to help pay the bills and keep the lights on, including Google, Amazon, and, a scrappy indie network, ComicAd. If you use an ad blocker, consider becoming an ongoing supporter on Patreon, Bandcamp, or Ko-Fi to chip in and continue guilt free.

Some images on this site are created using AI/ML generators (MidJourney and Dall-E) when posts otherwise wouldn't have pictures or they seem fun to me to add.
