Every time I think of this moment
I make this face
no matter where I am
I stood at my stove tonight cooking spaghetti
and made this face for a solid five minutes
I’m really glad my roommate wasn’t home to see

To the Anon who asked about Jefferson and his views on Homosexuality: (Cont.) The more "lenient" punishment clearly showed that he did not find it a damnable offense. However, given the society in which he lived, if he had said that he did not want any punishment for these "crimes", it would not have gotten passed. Since Homosexuality can be seen as a religious matter, perhaps it is not a far stretch to think that he would take the, "it neither picks my pocket, nor breaks my leg" mindset.

(This is part 2.)

Basically you cannot forget the time period he was living in and from that standpoint, this is your answer. But I agree with your statement at the end, I feel he would have been more open the same way he was to religious differences.

To the Anon who asked about Jefferson and his views on Homosexuality: When Jefferson was governor of Virginia, 1779-1781, he authored a bill penalizing men who committed "sodomy" to be castrated and in turn, also penalized women by cutting the cartilage off of the ends of their noses. This was a very liberal act since the penalty had, or was usually, death. By looking at this bill, it seems that Jefferson was of a different opinion than most men of his time.

(This is part 1, thanks for the answer!)

I knew the death bit from English law; the rest sounds vaguely familiar, I presume coming from the period where all the Virginians laws were being rewritten.

Anonymous asked:


Does Thomas Jefferson support equal rights for homosexuals?

To be quite honest, I have never read anything about Jefferson that ever touched on the subject either way. If the question is would he in the modern day that’d be an interesting debate, but I don’t know if that issue ever came up in his writings in his own time. Has anyone else seen anything?
