       historians are all “just cos he says he is a woman, has a female name, dresses as a woman and got a judge to rule that he is legally a woman does not imply that he’s a transexual as we would understand them now and that is why i decided to misgender him”

       so i mean, here’s a different way to approach history. we know, as facts1. being trans is not a choice, just like being gay is not a choice.2. not everyone who is trans gets to transition 3. there are at least 6 trans people in every 1000 people i think the way to look at history is the way we look at dark matter: where’s the missing trans people?

       I believe that unless there's specific affirmative proof that a person is cis, we should assume they are trans.That means, since in a lot of places, in a lot of points in history, we would be including people who stayed in the closet and never emerged. To prove someone is cis we must show 1. They lived as the gender they were assigned at birth2. There is specific evidence that they enjoyed being this gender: either statements on the subject in word or deed. 3. no evidence to the contrary

       @bri_seven Just to throw in my personal experience, I am he/they because AMAB, but I literally don't give a shit about my gender, so there is never a case of being happy/unhappy about it. Personally, it's pretty much the least important part of my being. Maybe this is tied to my by the minute fluidity of sexuality - which defaults to ACE/ARO, but goes to pan.So I feel that you may creating yet another artificial binary, through that statement.

       @grumpysmiffy well, yes of course I am! to prove a point about the way history is currently evaluated: by assuming people are cis and requiring impossible evidence to concede someone is trans.

       @grumpysmiffy if it’s obviously unacceptable to assume people are trans why is assuming cis reasonable?

       @bri_seven@grumpysmiffy Honestly I think most ppl dont care, dont care about their gender, sex or orientation, not to mention that this probably was even more so the case in less recent history.Yes we had gay/pedophile Greeks etc and maybe you know more about what they thought wrote about it than I do but just because biology works the way it does there is no way that they managed to sustain their kind without knowing how to and therefore categorising ppl in 2 major groups.But besides that I dont think much thought was given about the matter, especially when you talk about farmers etc they needed offspring as work labour and they knew how it works from their parents, older townfolk or discovered it "by accident", but I dought that there where more than 1% running around and "identifying" as anything(cis/nincis/etc) combined.

       this might seem radical, or like it is a joke, but I believe it is no more radical than the current standard expected to prove someone is trans.

       @bri_seven In which way? Please elaborate, I was merely opening another POV on the matter.

       @Lamdarer 1. the gay people cared if they were gay, and they existed in every era in every culture.2. ditto trans people3. ancient greek people understood just fine how human reproduction worked4. gay people know how reproduction works too, and they can do it just fine5. all of the above is stuff homophobes say all the time to gay people to shame them and say they are unnatural/weak/will go exctinct/new/weird/rare

       @bri_seven 1,2: probably less than 1% of ppl even if you count thouse in who cared but werent trans or gay, 99% where of a lower class and probably most of thouse ppl hadnt had barely any view on either side (thats what I said above).3,4. Did I state anything elseThats not what I said.I dont believe that any orientation is something we are born with, but that wasnt my point.My point was that for MOST ppl (with more in less recent histroy) it just didnt matter any more or less than any other love relationship, MOST ppl didnt had the time to be philosophic or research the human race either, etc..Tell me how that is homophobic, tell me how I am homophobic for complementing your thought process with other POVs.

       @Lamdarer 6. gay people are born to straight people all the time. even in instances like the holocaust when they were mass murdered to “cleanse” the master race, they continued to be born at the same exact rate

       @bri_seven 6 also appling to cis, if that wasn't clear to you. Same to personalities they are also not defined by your genes.
