Pride Shakespeare! 🌈
Show Notes

It's June - Happy Pride everyone!!!  Love is Love is Love!!!

That being said (even though it should have ALWAYS been love is love), in the Elizabethan times things were very different as far as the way people lived, loved, and talked about same sex relationships. In fact, they didn't really outwardly deal with anything other than the traditional man and wife (purported to be the only acceptable relationship in the fictional bible).

Except that you could be executed for buggery.  Yeah.

Soooooooo..... was William Shakespeare gay or bisexual?? It's conjecture, but we discuss.
