A Short History of Queer Women
A Short History of Queer Women | Kirsty Loehr
1 post | 3 read
No, they werent just friends! Queer women have been written out of history since, well, forever. But historians famously care about women!, said no one. From Anne Bonny and Mary Read who sailed the seas together disguised as pirates, to US football captain Megan Rapinoe declaring You cant win a championship without gays on your team, via countless literary salons and tuxedos, A Short History of Queer Women sets the record straight on women who have loved other women through the ages. Who says lesbians cant be funny?

I do want to learn more about queer history and this book was a good start. Loehr writes rather snarky and angry, so this might not be enjoyable for everyone. But I do get the anger queer people feel and now is finally the time to be loud. It's short, so the book can't go into too much detail, but this also helps attracting people that don't read much. Also, queers have always existed! 🏳️‍🌈
