Havin' feelings about them again (the galli, priests/priestesses of Cybele who were assigned male but presented femininely)...

Smolder: Bullshit, one month.

Silverstream: Nah, month and a half.

Ocellus: (sobbing) WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL?! PRINCESS TWILIGHT JUST DIED!!

Rainbow Dash: Hey, can I get in on this action?

Ocellus: PROFESSOR?!

Rainbow Dash: Kid, I’ve known Twilight a lot longer than you. I’ve done this song and dance. Anyway, put me down for three weeks.

Soundwave, I platonically love ya man but that was a massive mistake you just made there.

I’ll give you points for recognizing Vinyl as “the cool one” though.

A wild Sewpronia appears! She's here to kick ass and trans gender!

Sewpronia is a gallus, a devotee of Magna Mater from ancient Rome. The galli originated in what's now Turkey - or maybe Greece, or Mesopotamia. They arrived in Rome during the Second Punic War, after a prophecy declared the Romans couldn't win without the help of Magna Mater.

Galli were assigned male at birth, but they dressed femininely. They may have been what we'd now call transfeminine, nonbinary, or a "third gender" in Roman society: "They say they are not men...they want to pass as women," as Firmicus Maternus said.

It's always messy to use modern identities for ancient cultures. But for our purposes, Sewpronia is a trans gal. Her name is a pun on Sempronia the conspirator from Bellum Catilinae, because every woman needs to commit a little treason sometimes.

Her white and purple tunic, yellow shoes and makeup come from a description of the galli in Apuleius' Metamorphosis, the black and bronze jewelry are based on a gallus' grave found in northern England, and her long bleached hair follows the description in Robert Turcan's The Cults of the Roman Empire. Underneath, she has a strophium (bra/chest wrap) and subligaculum (loincloth).

Roman women wore this bikini-like outfit when exercising, as shown in this Sicilian mosaic:

The galli had a curious place in Roman society. Men who were seen as too effeminate were looked down upon, and being compared to a gallus was typically an insult. I'm also not sure whether Roman citizens could become galli, or only non-citizens could, or if this changed over time. But everyone accepted that there was a place for the galli and their goddess in Rome - even Cato wouldn't have disputed that!

Please excuse any historical inaccuracies or poor styling choices I made - and send me any good sources on the galli you know so I can learn more! In the meantime, I'm going to make Sewpronia more cute outfits. She appreciates them much more than Cato the "shoes are modern decadence" Yarnier.

Sewpronia and Cato are based on Allison Hoffman's AmiguruME doll pattern. Happy Trans Day of Visibility, everyone!

When Gallus gets defensive, he goes a bit primal.

Smolder: Damn, Gallus, your parking job is as straight as I am.

Gallus: ….. I know I should focus on the fact that you literally just came out to me for the first time, but how dare you insult my parking job?!
