Funny thing

According to Montserrat, many of the 'gay' sources on Akhenaten are VERY misogynistic, they concentrate So much on the relationship between Smenkhrae (who during the time they were written was believed to be a man) that they almost wrote Nefertiti and the other Royal women of Amarna out of the history.

BTW the reason I haven't blogged properly in ages is because i'm doing a VERY long analysis of Montserrat's book in regards to the Afrocentric and Sexuality theories.

Funny thing to, you know that youtube video where the faces of Obama and his family are compared to those of Akhenaten's family is actually very typical of what Afrocentrics do. They take images of famous black people and compare them to the faces of Akhenaten and family to illustrate the African origins of the family.

ALSO one thing i hadn't realised is the appeal of Akhenaten to black Muslims!!!
