pallasathene82 makes an interesting archaeological find:

The label of a work I'm looking up for work is truncated by another so that it now says, "Egypt, Valley of the Queer."

I suspect this is the little-known resting place of the Fabulous.

QWP, Context would like rhinestones on its sarcophagus.

We are talking about a civilization where the men habitually wore miniskirts, as much jewelry as they could afford, and eye makeup. 'Nuff said.

Not in the Valley of the Queens, but: The Tomb of the Two Hairdressers. 'Nuff said.

Well, there was some speculation about Set -- before later dynasties turned him evil, the original Set was nicer, and may have been light in the loafers ^_^

It's very old -- even ancient -- slang for gay

Interesting- it's kinda like 'roundheels,' I guess.
