Pretty sure Loki was the mother of Odin’s horse.
And you are correct!
Classic Loki.
He also got Thor to dress as Freya to pretend to marry a giant king
I personally don’t see that is one of those trans Loki moments, because I’m cis, love joking, and identify with Loki in the tale.
If I were in that situation, I would 1000% find it hilarious to convince my best bro the only way to get their most prized possession back is to crossdress and trick a King.
And the father of Fenrir and Jormungandr!
And Angrboda I thought too
Edit: Angrboda was the momma. Hel, the protector of the underworld, was his daughter
No, Angrboda was his mate. You might be thinking of Hel, whom I also forgot to mention.
I’d avoid mentioning it unless you want the ire of the Trickster God.
They’d kidnap and enslave them just like everyone else; true egalitarians!
tbf that’s like talking about the US miliary, who do horrible things without most of the population being aware of it
Close to 100% viking here, you’re welcome! I might enslave you though, but without prejudice.
I feel like you don’t know what a viking is.
How can I not? I am one!
BTW viking society seemingly didnt only kill and plunder ;-)
Vikings were a very particular group of Scandinavians who, during parts of the year, went on their longboats and raided villages and stole stuff to bring home. For most of the year, they were farmers and fishermen. Having Scandinavian ancestry does not make you a viking, they literally don’t exist anymore.
I’m 100% Nordic by the wayWhat about this guy then, huh?
Techno Viking is a time traveller so he doesn’t count. Fun fact, Vikings used to have a rave after a successful raid
Nice try viking. By viking law you can only keep what you kill and a dead slave is worthless, therefore taking a corpse as a slave has no standing. You will just have to settle for the plunder and be on your way.
You forgot the most important Viking law:
I, for one, welcome our new, tolerant, Viking overlords.

I’m 90% sure vikings would have been more than a little excited by the idea.
You’re just saying that because of Scandinavia’s track record on trans people
Actually modern day Scandinavia’s attitude towards trans people needs some work.
Loki turned into a mare to get properly fucked by a stallion, get pregnant and deliver an 8 legged super horse (Sleipnir) that Odin proudly rode around… yeah, they are very fine with gender fluidity
I’m sure a whole lot of people where fine with it until the christofasciast colonisers and occupiers had their way

He’s a war-god, but also a poetry-god, and he has prominent “effeminate” qualities that would have brought unspeakable shame to any historical Viking warrior.
cal tradition known as seidr, of which Odin and Freya are the foremost divine practitioners. In traditional Germanic society, for a man to engage in seidr was effectively to forsake the male gender role, which brought considerable scorn upon any male who chose to take up this path. As the sagas show, this didn’t stop some men from practicing seidr anyway. However, even Odin wasn’t exempt from such charges of “unmanliness,” and was taunted for adopting the feminine traits and tasks that form part of the backbone of seidr. Saxo, in the passage on Odin’s exile alluded to above, relates that “by his stage-tricks and his assumption of a woman’s work he had brought the foulest scandal on the name of the gods.”[16] Note also the reference to being “fertilized” in the verse quoted above – while this is certainly a metaphor, it’s a metaphor loaded with sexual implications that would have been immediately recognizable to any Viking Age or medieval reader or hearer of the poem.

Canonically accurate.
Edit: Huh, you’re going to have to open the image in a new tab to actually read the comic.
Vikings also fucked their friend’s wife when he died. Also were supporters of slavery and have abused their slaves. Am failing to see the point?
She’s probably taking on those hyper masculine white nationalists obsessed with their viking ancestors, not on vikings to be cool again.
Kind of weird post then, not to include the origin of the argument.
Twitter
Are there any supporters of slavery that haven’t abused their slaves? It seems to be part of the whole deal.
who said they wouldn’t
Historical fact, most of the surviving written records about their society, etc.
I’m pretty sure modern day viking descendants are ok with them.
Our very own VikingHippie is fine with them, at least.
Long as that bussy tight
The vikings only cares if you behave Viking. Ethnicity don’t matter. Sexuality don’t matter. And I can’t fathom that they’d care for how you dress. As long as you have Viking values you are top notch
Or actually they might care for how you dress as they were very vain and loved to dress up. Quite fancy
Frøya from Norsemen demonstrates this in pretty shocking way when she face rapes some dude for challenging her Vikingness.
Viking virtues like staying true to your word, even if that means death. A deviation of this is the stoning of men that tried to flee from combat - by their wives.
Viking society was very gender based with clear roles for man and woman, and while being a bottom would hurt your manly rep, being the active partner in a homosexual relation would bolster it.
Children still had top prio, so without a wife being too didn’t make the cut.
I’d have let her do it, not that I’d have a choice, but I’d rather be willing, conscious, and proven a fool than unconscious and left only with the smell of her victory.
Let your freak flag fly!
Pretty sure they all got drunk and high and fucked each other in the forest irregardless of gender, to praise their gods.
