growing up i was told clothing styles were just a social construct and the acronym was LGB, and there were transvestites, but they tended to be outrageous male performance artists, women wearing men’s clothes were nothing unusual, not outrageous performance artists. I remember reading about a transvestite guy who just liked to wear women’s clothes and his wife, friends and colleagues just saw it as an eccentricity, the picture with the article showed him in a women’s tennis skirt, top and tennis shoes, whatever…
Lumberjacks hardest hit …
They’ll be okay.
When I grew up, some people had same-sex ‘room mates’.
Some of those women chose to look ‘mannish’. The men looked just like men.
No one I knew said anything. When I got older, I heard references to ‘the boys’.
