‘Which is the rooster, which is the hen?’ Female Masculinities in the Gay 20s
Laura Doan is Professor of Cultural History and Sexuality Studies in the School of Arts, Histories and Cultures at The University of Manchester, and serves as co-director of the Centre for the Study of Sexuality and Culture.
She is author of Fashioning Sapphism: The Origins of a Modern English Lesbian Culture (Columbia UP 2001) and has co-edited several volumes exploring aspects of sexual history. This talk tracks some of the changes in female fashions from the Great War to the late 1920s, to think further about how we make sense of sexual lives of the past. Some forms of ‘female masculinity’ that suggest ‘lesbianism’ to us now might have looked quite different at earlier points in the 20th century – but how can we tell?
Confusion about gender reigned supreme in the Gay 20s. Examining London in particular, Laura will explore sub cultural lives in the first few decades of the last century as a way to consider larger problems of how we write our histories of sexuality for both women and men.
