I think I'm gonna start using he/him for the moon on purpose now.
In many cultures the moon is a man and the sun is a woman or both are men or something like in Egyptian mythology your ideas about the inherent feminine nature of the moon are based in nothing
Yeah in my tribe the Moon is male. So maybe we're not all Romans.
I kind of want to make the sentence "so maybe we're not all Romans" into a pin.
#also its important to remember that grammatical gender does not equal gender as it plays out in real life!#like 'virtus' in Latin- which is a word thay refers to the qualities of being a man in the Roman sense (it comes from the word for man vir)#is feminine!#and theres a word in Ancient Greek for child thats neuter! not masculine or feminine!#so you shouldnt put too much stock into grammatical gender anyways
