… really a man?

"Famously, despite countless proposals and opportunities to marry an array of suitable bachelors, Elizabeth resisted and her line died with her. "I have already joined myself in marriage to a husband, namely the kingdom of England," she claimed, but was this true?

Elizabeth's vow of abstinence was a very unusual one for her time, and there were those who believe that the real reason was far more biological – Elizabeth was a man…"

Ha ha ha ha. Rarely do I laugh out loud at a computer screen but this did it for me.

Elizabeth's vow of abstinence was a very unusual one for her time,…

No, it was not unusual. And, she had lovers, e.g., Robert Dudley.

– Elizabeth was a man…

What garbage!

What silliness. Elizabeth was a third-Sex Reptilian. Everyone knows that. (well, everyone except for the author of this silly piece).

How dare you assume the gender of the queen!

That is the dumbest thing I have read all week. Maybe all year.

In my own bid for fame and fortune, I'm working on a blistering expose that will prove to the world that Queen Victoria was a badger and Lincoln an aubergine!

In the interests of keeping English free of insidious French words, I would submit, Cerdic, he was, if anything, an eggplant.

God Lord, next you'll be claiming Jeff Davis was a courgette when he was clearly a zucchini.

Oh! So insidious Italian words are perfectly fine, are they?

Anyway, Davis was neither. Initial research points to him being a surprisingly spacious bijou maisonette, with good access to local amenities including schools and a railway station…

Not a well appointed bed sitting room?

Cerdic01 Feb 2020 1:38 p.m. PST

Nah. That was Bismark…

I thought she was a hamster, but got better.

L'italiano è perfetto.
