Uh didn’t ancient Egypt still have pretty “traditional” gender roles? Not sure what this meme is trying to say

Yes. I think whoever made the meme just saw that upper class men in ancient Egypt wore eyeliner, and assumed that meant they were non-binary?

Also ancient Romans, just like ancient Greeks, had a long tradition of materialism as well. Plato always had people criticizing his idealism, and this continued into the Roman tradition as well.

i made this meme, and tbh i just sort of chose a random culture because i’m certain nonbinary people have existed in pretty much all of them since the dawn of time

apparently Anicent Egypt had a third gender, originally thought of as being similar to eunchs but after more in depth research it was found to be too complex to be simply that
