I'm in a #CivilPartnership & not a marriage because I'm *personally* not a big fan of the history of the institution of marriage. And my boyfriend is called my 'boyfriend' & not 'my husband' & definitely not 'my partner' because I have exactly zero interest in apologising for myself in any way, in heteronormativity or in sounding like some kind of gay Tory/ Log Cabin Republican. We all deserve to be celebrated for who we are, no matter what anyone else thinks. (2/2)

Same-Sex Unions in Premodern Europe (John Boswell) – So many timelines of #QueerHistory start with #Stonewall & #OscarWilde. This book sheds light on a long history of queer unions of love, but personal and church-sanctioned. With so much of our history erased or painfully reinterpreted to be as hetero as possible, this is an essential record of our forebearers' hearts & legacy.
