Quite the tale. I think it goes a long way to defanging any questions about if he really existed or not.

That was some diligent research!

Shakespeare is that black trans Muslim who wrote those contemporary plays right?

[DeplorableTrumpSupporter]

And some 'historical experts' said he never lived... BS!!

Is William Shakespeare LGBTQ?
AI Overview
Whether William Shakespeare was LGBTQ is a matter of debate, but modern scholars increasingly argue he was likely bisexual. Evidence primarily comes from his sonnets, which include passionate, intimate love poems addressed to a young man (”Fair Lord”) and a woman (”Dark Lady”), leading some experts to label him as “[...undeniably bisexual](https://therustintimes.com/2020/08/29/researchers-say-william-shakespeare-was-undeniably-bisexual-after-27-poems-written-for-men/)”.

Key details regarding the discussion of Shakespeare’s sexuality include:
The Sonnets: Of 154 sonnets, many are addressed to a male subject (”lord of my love,” “sweet love,” “my sweet boy”), while others are addressed to a woman, suggesting attraction to both.
Scholarly Consensus: Researchers like Paul Edmondson and Stanley Wells argue that the language in the sonnets, especially 144, 40, and 133, strongly indicates bisexual desires.
Historical Context: While Shakespeare’s work features same-sex love, themes of cross-dressing, and gender fluidity, it is important to note that modern LGBTQ identities did not exist in the same way in the 16th century.
