The thing I promised earlier.
So, I don’t know how many of you keep up with Neil Price (I’m going to jump out on a limb here and guess that the answer is not many), but since there seems to be so much interest in shieldmaidens (no doubt cultivated by the fictional depiction of this archetype on the TV show Vikings), I’ve decided to post something particularly interesting. To me. I think it’s cool. Some of you may not because it sort of takes women out of the role of swinging swords at people, but I think it’s awesome. I think it’s better.
I’m also planning to go back and edit my undergraduate thesis and put that here as a huge post on gender roles and sex reanalysis, but that’s for laters.
