Pfft...why?Please pray for me I am bisexual.
I am try sexual. Try anything sexual!I'm waiting for the trisexual's to make their debut.
With respect to you and @VoidCat, she wasn't LGBT or mentally ill. That's just modern people trying to fit her into a present day mold. If she were that mentally ill, she wouldn't have been able to function so well and it's not like people haven't had an idea about psychosis before the modern day. They knew about "madness".She was also most likely Scizopherenic too, at least by today's standards
look I'm just putting forth a theory I heard. It may or may not be true. It's a theory among others that I heard. I'm actually not very well versed on Joan of Arc and history. I just know a lot of folk who believe she may have been lgbt or mentally ill. Whether she was or not I do not know. I just put forth that information to show @Frank Goad that it's possible to be lgbt and christian. if it wasn't then folk would not be debating if she was or not lgbt.With respect to you and @VoidCat, she wasn't LGBT or mentally ill.

Just because you have religious visions, that does not mean you are mentally ill. Psychotic delusions are fairly obviously delusions.
And the LGBT has even less of a leg to stand on because there's no evidence of it at all. She had to wear male clothing because she was going into battle. They didn't have female armor and war clothing.
Wikipedia suggests Joan had spiritual reasons for her cross dressing rather than just the practical reasons that would come to mind.She had to wear male clothing because she was going into battle. They didn't have female armor and war clothing.
During the trial proceedings, Joan is not recorded as giving a practical reason why she cross-dressed.[317] She stated that it was her own choice to wear men's clothes,[318] and that she did so not at the request of men but by the command of God and his angels.[319] She stated she would return to wearing women's clothes when she fulfilled her calling.

Well, her calling was to lead the French army into battle...Wikipedia suggests Joan had spiritual reasons for her cross dressing rather than just the practical reasons that would come to mind.
No, it's fine. No worries. These are ideas that have been going around for awhile.look I'm just putting forth a theory I heard. It may or may not be true. It's a theory among others that I heard.

Trained professionals are supposed to account for religious and cultural contexts. It's not delusional to feel your deity communicates with you. It also has to be something that is negatively affecting the quality of your life.I was very careful to say "by today's standards"
If I said God talks to me I wouldn't become a military leader I'd find myself on a psychiatric unit......
Right.I am watching a documentary about her now so don't know too much about her although I'd agree that saying she was trans is very problematic
They were very insensitive when that happened to me and these were people who should have known betterTrained professionals are supposed to account for religious and cultural contexts.

I'm sorry you were mistreated.They were very insensitive when that happened to me and these were people who should have known better
Someday robots are going to replace women and nobody will need them anymore. *grin*I am try sexual. Try anything sexual!
*Drum roll Cymbal clash*
It was neither empathetic nor unempathetic. It was an inquiry based upon the OP’s history of posts during his years on the forum. I certainly was not disparaging him for being bisexual nor was I commenting on bisexuality per se.This is an unempathetic thing to say.
Damn I hope not. I prefer the company of women in general. Men are good for only one thing, beating in a game or sport, and sometimes for other things.Someday robots are going to replace women and nobody will need them anymore. *grin*
Is that something you don't want to be,? Do you feel its a bad thing?.... Is that why you are asking for prayers?Please pray for me I am bisexual.
