Not enough people talk about the fact that Leonardo da Vinci was gay. Like, he’s literally the father of modern technology and one of the smartest human beings to ever live and I never ever learned in school that he was gay.
If all the LGBT people are as “DOOMED” as the bible thumpers think we are, hell, at least we’re in good company.
I was about to say I can’t believe I didn’t know this
and then I remembered the American education system
Yes, I can fucking believe I didn’t know this.
But yeah. Leonardo da Vinci was gay. Pass it on.
Leo painted a picture of his lover as Jesus and that’s the image we use today
White Christians would be so pissed to find out that even their false white depiction of Jesus was based off of a man who liked men
I READ THIS WHOLE THING AS LEONARDO DI CAPRIO
If I’m not mistaken he didn’t paint his lover as Jesus, but as John the Baptist?
And a lot of his facial features also match the Mona Lisa
And the “white guy” depiction of Jesus from the Renaissance era is supposedly Cesare Borgia
I mean, yeah, Da Vinci was hella gay and drew little caricatures of penises with legs running after a caricature of Salai’s ass (Salai being his lover and model) but I just needed to point this out
