LGBTQ history dates back to the first recorded instances of same-sex love and sexuality in ancient civilizations. Ancient Egyptian royal servants Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum, who lived c. 2400 BCE, are believed to be the first recorded same-sex couple in history, so you get the perspective.

Hi friends!  I hope your week is off to a great start!  I had a productive Monday, which always feels great.  My workout was just what I needed and I’m so thankful that I’ve been getting lots of good sleep lately.  Maybe because I’ve gotten Jordan back into her own bed.
