Anne Boleyn was “transsexual coded” and would have “loved” being played by a man? Are you quite mad?
She was an intensely religious and highly intelligent woman who struggled with the uniquely female, royal challenge of her primary role being to produce male heirs, which she was unable to do, and for which inability she was executed on trumped up charges. She did, of course, end up being the mother of a great queen. And both of them were traduced and shamed every day of their lives for their failures of “proper“ womanhood.
What possible insight can some hammy, flappy, frog mouthed man have into any of that?
I havent seen Six so god only knows what historical atrocities they commit, but if I got to cast it and had to have Mulvaney play someone, I’d cast him as Anne of Cleeves, who Henry couldn’t get it up with because he thought she was a minger.
Here is my Six rant.....
It is a brilliant musical with a lot of historical accuracy. And that is why I am sad.
As well as some cracking songs it teaches you the human side of the 'divorced, beheaded, died' mantra and very much tells the story of the Queens with actually little reference to the
twit they all married.
K.Aragon was married for nearly 25 years to H8. Gave birth to many children including sons, but Mary was only surviving child. She considered herself Queen until she died at age 50. Had to watch that
large twit remarry time and time again whilst having to fight for her life as well as the life of the daughter she was never allowed to see.
A.Boleyn was extremely religious and basically taught that marrying royalty was the only thing important. Her parents raised their children to marry royalty like an Olympic sport. After only 3ish years was considered an inconvenience because she 'only' had a girl. Trans icon my
a.
J.Seymour Good family but not the brightest. Considered a good match because H8 was more educated and therefore could outsmart her. First 2 wives were very clever, educated and experienced in life and could give as good as they got. Wife 3 was almost illiterate and very meek and mild. Married her about a week after he executed his 2nd wife and she died about a year later after giving birth.
A.Cleves My favourite wife. H8 genuinely married her because she had a beautiful portrait. She came from an excellent family both financially and politically. He was genuinely repulsed by her appearance but married her anyway. He was unable to consumate the marriage allegedly because she was so
weird. More likely because he was so drunk and riddled with STDs. Annulled (so not technically divorced but that doesn't rhyme) and she actually did very well. Absolutely humiliated she had some bloody good lawyers who threatened to tell the world H8 couldn't get an erection. He paid her handsomely and she lived an incredible life
K.Howard the sadest of them all. Married about a week after 4th wife got her annulment. She was about 17. H8 was about 50. She was executed at 19, less than 2 years later. This was absolutely an abused and groomed little girl. From puberty she was passed around by 'uncles' and H8 learned of her being available. Again taught by her parents that bagging the king was the ultimate goal she flattered the
large gout and ulcer ridden slob and convinced him she loved him. H8 actually managed to consumate the marriage but he was cruel and abused her. The poor wretched kid was flattered by courtiers and abused and r*ped. H8 used this as her using witchcraft against him and she was beheaded for treason. In reality she humiliated the king so she had to go. H8 was so humiliated he decided that she shouldn't ascend to heaven in the rapture. When the end of days comes you need a body to go up to heaven so he had her thrown in the ground in the church at Tower of London so her body was next to Anne Boleyn. Then he had quick lime thrown on her so it basically dissolves and there's no chance of redemption.
C.Parr H8 was her 3rd out of 4 husbands. Very clever and navigated Tudor court like a pro. A good match for H8 as she was supportive and kept her mouth shut. Is absolutely the only reason H8 three children had a relationship with each other. Made sure Mary and Elizabeth were put into the acts of succession which not only gave them a chance of succeeding the throne but no doubt kept them alive and away from the executioner block. Was actually a very good wife and was loyal. An astute politician.
SORRY FOR LENGTH!!! But I just wanted to point out how awesome these women were and how good the musical Six portrays them. It makes it all the more sad that men get the opportunity to sing about their stories and that absolute
ducks get to claim these are 'trans'
bleeping voices. Get in the bin.
