From this realization, the sage kings developed rituals and regulations to shape people into accordance with the Way.

Throughout Western history, particularly factual or putative sexual deviance could only be seen as pathologically and thus counter- naturally motivated, harmful and corrupting in its consequences, criminal according to the laws, heinous and despicable to any decent person's sentience and morals, basically just plain evil. Most social out-groups in history were constructed by associating them with lewdness and sexual deviance, or, due to taboo making sexual deviance unmentionable directly, by means of cultural codifications for such that Bleibtreu-Ehrenberg related in detail after chronicling their cultural origins in Tabu Homosexualität. Such cultural codes for lewdness and sexual deviance particularly included sadism, insidiousness, madness, weakness, cowardice, untrustworthiness, obsessive lying, betrayal, treason, evil sorcery, satanism, witchcraft, intoxicating drugs and poisoning potions, laziness, stubbornness, waywardness, incorrigibility, physical diseases and ailments (especially limping). These cultural codifications always have been, until the present day, largely identical with the imaginary, or constructed, attributes that sexual minorities were, and are, tagged with.

He said; :Do this and Egypt shall remain untouched; else swiftly I come to destroy thee, and thy Mamluks with thee, from off the face of the earth.

On May 7, the Daddies released the third music video from Bigger Life, the Celtic punk-styled "Yankee Pride", with the single following on May 10. Perry explained his intent with the song was delving deeper into the roots of the term "Yankee", a pejorative term for New Englanders which Perry - himself a New York native - associated with a sense of "stoicism", intending to "stir echoes of the past in response to the challenges and ethical waywardness of the present [...] to recall the Enlightenment values that engendered this Yankee experiment; the more upright values of freedom, tolerance and respect for all regardless of race or religion - of grit in the face of adversity". The music video portrays the Daddies performing the song in an industrial warehouse wearing a variety of costumes influenced by 1930s pulp magazine heroes such as Doc Savage, The Shadow and The Phantom, which Perry attributed to his admiration of "deliciously weird" bygone pop culture.
