Shakarian Roleplaying

one of my favorite (read: least favorite) things about how people treat cleopatra is she’s so often called a slut or is only ever portrayed as being this incredibly sexy, often scantily-clad seductress, when in actuality 1. while some ancient sources describe her as somewhat pretty, it generally seems that what was attractive about her was her intellect, charm, and voice, and the sources that refer to her as extremely sexy/slutty are specifically out to condem her, 2. she was a brilliant politician who chose her affairs as a way of securing power for her country and not just so she could have a bunch of sex (which shouldn’t be an issue anyway), and 3. one of the men she had an affair with was mark antony, ancient roman super slut supreme, a man known for his love of sex and tendency to wear extremely short tunics for the sake of showing off his sexy legs/probably also his dick

i’m not saying there’s anything wrong with portraying cleopatra as beautiful or even sexy, because she clearly had allure. all i’m saying is that, if your cleopatra is wearing less clothing than your mark antony, there’s probably a problem in your depiction of them

if you define “woman” as anyone who feels like one, or whatever, then there is no actual basis of female reality. the struggles of natal women are erased and swept under the rug in the name of “inclusion” and we move backwards.

Every Period Drama Ever!

This idea is highly inspired by Yehuda Devir’s perfect and clever piece and my own personal experiences with my husband. XD Them both are wearing traditional male and female fundoshi.

InuYasha… you…BAKA! Don’t play like that with your woman’s heart!
