I feel like I should say Jeanne d’Arc here (or Aliénor d’Aquitaine or Anne de Bretagne or Marie Curie or Camille Claudel or Joséphine Baker or Artemisia Gentileschi or or or)
I hoped you'd say Julie d'Aubigny! You don't get much more trickster than setting fire to a nunnery so you can run off with your girlfriend. (Or possibly that's more "dangerously antisocial," but same difference.) La Maupin does absolutely nothing to dispel the Depraved Bisexual trope and I love her for it.
