In 1617, Ethiopian noblewoman Walatta Petros left behind a traditional heterosexual marriage to become a nun. Alongside her life partner, fellow nun Eheta Kristos, she founded and led seven religious communities, and maintained her Orthodox faith in the face of Portuguese attempts to convert Ethiopia to Catholicism.

Happy birthday to Alexander the Great born (or at least close to it) way back in 356 BCE. Alexander is famous as a general, conquering lands from Greece to India by his early 30s – but he is also known for his close relationship with his companion Hephaestion, which many commentators since have understood to be romantic and sexual.

This is Nellie Small, known in the first half of the 20th-century as one of Australia’s best jazz singers, but barely recognised today.
Nellie performing in male dress, sporting a wardrobe of at least a dozen tailored suits, ranging from bright crimson to pure white. From the late 1920s, Nellie lived with her manager Edith Meggitt, and Edith’s family. The two women were extremely close, and Nellie was considered a part of the family.
