When Drag Queens Were King

With the conflicts about LGBTQIA+, it is fascinating to look back at the history of gays in American history. Once, not only accepted but widely celebrated, drag was a prominent face in the entertainment industry.

During the Shakespearean period, in the late 16th century and early 17th century, women were not permitted to perform on the stage. Men played the female roles. While this wasn’t exactly “drag”, it’s possible gay men took advantage of the opportunity to express their feminine sides.

Originally, drag was not only applied to men performing while dressed as women but, any performer dressed in costumes other than their own gender. In fact, the first recorded drag contest and “ball” in America took place in 1867! Men and women performed in Harlem, New York. There were drag queens and drag kings. Notable during the 1880’s and 1890’s was William Dorsey Swann. Known as the Queen of Drag, Dorsey was more than just a drag queen. An African American, born into slavery, was known for holding secret drag balls. The “Queen of Drag”, Swann, is believed to be the first person in the United States to lead a gay resistance. He held secret drag balls in Washington, DC. One part of the drag balls included a competition known as a “cakewalk”, originally held on plantations by slaves. Couples would dance in precise steps and formation. It is believed to have been a way to subtly make fun of the formal white dances pre and post emancipation. As dance contests, the winners were awarded with cakes!

The Jazz Age (from 1920 - early 1930’s) in large cities like New York, Chicago, and San Francisco saw the popularity of drag performers rise. Minstrel shows, vaudeville, and burlesque provided drag entertainment. Unlike many drag performers, Jean (Gene) Malin was not trying to impersonate a woman. During Prohibition, the days of the “pansy craze”, Malin was openly gay and proud of it. Described as flamboyant and effeminate, he entertained audiences with a wonderful sense of humor. At six feet tall and two hundred pounds, Malin had a lisp that delighted his fans. He was capable of defending himself when needed. He performed in high end nightclubs and was featured in films and on Broadway.

In 1920 Drag Balls and contests were so popular they were even represented in film. Men were referred to as “pansies” or “sissies” and were often portrayed as clothing designers or tailors, hairdressers, or choreographers and dancers. Flamboyant and effeminate, they added humor to films. Women were portrayed as more masculine and dressed in male fashions.

There were actors and actresses who were known to be homosexual, if not to the general public, usually within their professional circles. In 1930’s, Marlene Dietrich, who made no secret of her bisexuality, had the first passionate same sex kiss in a film. However, that wasn’t the first same sex kiss in film. In 1922, Cecil B. DeMille directed a silent movie l, “Manslaughter”, that included an orgy. Although the first same sex kiss has been attributed to the later film, “Wings” in 1927, it was the earlier silent movie that broke the mold.

Drag has once again become popular in America with shows like RuPaul’s Drag Race. On the other hand, the country is in turmoil. The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer/Questioning, Intersex, Asexual+ (LGBTQIA+) community is already beginning to feel the change in the air, from the White House to every house, apartment, mobile home, hotel, or tent. The president has already signed several executive orders that will negatively impact LGBTQIA+ communities across the country. We can’t allow America to return to days of the Hays Code. We’ve too far to allow it to slip away.

Yeah i like the cat cult comic

it's @jumalanpelko if you can't tell? i loved drawing this it was like sculpting them. these designs are super strong

[tommyssupercoolblog]

Right so I had this daydream thing where I dreamed up this random Tumblr user who was mad at me and Seàn for keeping our source names and said "HOW WOULD YOU LIKE IT IF SOMEONE NAMED THEMSELVES TOMMY "TOMMYSSUPERCOOLBLOG" MCLOUGHLIN???" And I reblogged and said "??? I wouldn't care lol" and then later they actually fucking did it and they posted the legal papers and @ me like "WELL NOW I'VE GONE AND FUCKING DONE IT FOR REAL. YOU STILL OKAY WITH IT BIG MAN???" and I reblogged with a drawing of me with a very neutral face and giving a thumbs up with the caption "congrats on the name change"

And then in my dream I made a post and I said "okay wait we should all start naming ourselves after internet users we hate so we can make evil clones real" and then I realized this would make a badass Tumblr post in REAL life and so I thought about what it would be like if people named themselves after things they hate. And I imagined posting "imagine you're at a party and you meet a guy named FRED Vriska Rose Quartz Onision Mabel Pines The Click DougDoug Jerma and you ask him about it and he says "I fucking hate all of them , so I stole their names to maintain the balance" and he puts a cigarette out on you and leaves"

And that got me thinking about asking a trans person where they got their name from and they go "so I had this FUCKASS history teacher-"

And THAT made me imagine someone named Mosquito who, when you ask them how they got the name Mosquito, says "something good had to come out of those goddamn things" in a dramatic and haunted voice like a soldier talking about the war

So what do you think about that
