The conception of #EdgarAllanPoe the #writer seems to tap into a cultural affection for outsiders, #nonconformists and #underdogs who ultimately prove their worth.

There are probably better examples for this, but: tomboys and janegirls' existence constantly showing #right-wing superstitions' wrongness towards #gender does not make #queer books nor those higher androgyny genders problems. Orthodoxy also does not determine gender (or any worldly thing, for that matter), which is why these people aren't #nonconformists nor "unnatural" nor #non-binary nor #trans (other side). Such insults can lose pejorativity, though, akin to pagan.
