Hey folks, can anyone recommend some awesome queer authors or historical figures?

Bonus points if they're trans and ofc it'd be best if they're not a :LIB: ; big fan of Leslie Feinberg for example

    quick note about historical figures: historical figures are hard because we're kind of guessing at it in most cases.

    that said, some absolute friggin icons are thought to have been queer, including Da Vinci, Newton, and Erdös, who are all absolute giants of history.

      Ah yeah I guess I was talking about more recent people and "historical figures" is a really poor way of phrasing of what I meant. More along the lines of people of note / public figures .That's super cool though
