A groundbreaking study has suggested that a 1,000-year-old burial in Finland may belong to a non-binary individual, challenging traditional gender roles in early medieval societies. The remains, discovered in 1968 at Suontaka Vesitorninmäki in southern Finland, were found with items typically associated with femininity, such as jewelry and woolen garments, alongside weapons like swords, traditionally linked to masculinity. DNA analysis revealed that the individual likely had Klinefelter syndrome, a condition where a person has an extra X chromosome (XXY), resulting in both male and female physical traits. This discovery implies that the person may have identified outside the traditional gender binary. The high-status burial, with valuable grave goods, suggests that this individual was a respected member of their community, possibly due to their unique gender identity or other distinguishing factors. This finding provides new insights into how gender may have been understood and expressed in early medieval cultures.

The difference is that he is shopping at Dilliards this year vs shopping at Marshals. I'm gonna wait and see if the extra NIL money does indeed get us there. This team this year was really just missing a PG (Sears didn't work out) and rim protector (he got hurt)....at least missing from the point of making the NCAA Trny. I'm actually excited about the transfers....to go with the players we have returning. SEC is now brutal (in most every sport) so I'd be good with a 9-9 sec record and likely 6 seed, for next season.
