    at 22:57, the particular wording here definitely reminds me of handfasting! a celtic marriage tradition that includes literal tying of the hands with ceremonial cords to symbolise the strength of the relationship, its a really interesting tradition that i think is ultimately very lovely

    as a non binary english perosn who loves history (especially the history of royals) i love videos like these. i was wondering if maybe you could do a video on (possibly and verified) disabled people in history? i have autism and i recently discovered there’s a very high possibility that isaac newton was autistic, which made me weirdly happy. and it made me wonder about all the other disabled people in history that didn’t know they were disabled at the time/were ignored and painted in a negative light because of their disability (ie, richard III)

    • @georgiamarie_
      @georgiamarie_  Před 4 měsíci +2

    Through DNA and documentation, I have discovered that I have strong ties to England and the early Kings of England. I always listen for the names Georgia drops to get the tea on my former ancestors. Especially, if I hear of anything on the Tudors, Ladys, Baronesses, Knights, Sirs, Etc
    My nickname among my family and friends is actually Lady Gray. Since Gray is my actually last name

    Georgia, I enjoyed your video this week and more and more than usual. I always do but such a fascinating subject. Not likely to find anything so well researched and constructed with good taste and humor.
    With letting CZcams ads play and from habit of playing video as I go get a drink or whatever the case... I have a few CZcamsrs that I know are safe to play in whatever company))) even company at work. I went for a drink and came back to point of vibrators with thumbs and clitoris and I just sat down. What else could I do? Lmao
    You have a new subscriber I think and I have had an interesting day. 😅 I just had the opportunity to return and listen to what I missed. I ended up being the last to know the offer in full. "I thought you said that was true crime?" I said weird random things. Like, Yeah she does... "she somethings, she, it she varies on topics or whatever." "Not just true crime, we take breaks" "heavy material and people getting slaughtered... No idea where that came from... I just stopped talking.)
    All I wanted to say, History also. lol
    Thank You for your content all together. I have enjoyed it more so lately. Tks

    @smedleyx Před 4 měsíci

    Very fascinating subject!👍
    As an entry in the Hitchhiker's Guide mentions: "the best way not to be unhappy is to not have a word for it." ~ ~ A major drawback to a bountiful vocabulary in an organized society is that once you have a word for something, they can finally write a law to make it illegal. (However I do find the contemporary terms for identities pretty interesting; apparently I'm a heteromantic asexual in today's nomenclature, but I tacitly knew that from the get-go)

  • @Van_Rattus
    @Van_Rattus Před 3 měsíci

    I find this so fascinating. There are so many factors in trying to evaluate historical figures through modern lenses.. Its so hard to know with many historical figures.. Were the tabloid of the time trying to smear their character for any plethora of reason? were rumors of gayness spread by their political rivals, in an attempt to turn favor against them? How much of the whisperings their of gayness indicative of actual queer attraction?

    Sorry, don't want to be that person, but I think you got mixed up because James was the 4th monarch, he was James 6th of Scotland and 1st of England not James 4th of Scotland and 1st of England. (That looks really weird not in roman numerals but I it's probably easier to look at given 4 is IV and 6 is VI 😅)
