- Description
- The author explores the popular press to analyse how women's cross-gender bevaviour and same-sex desires were presented to working-class and lower middle-class people. She describes the changing perception of female cross-dressing and its relationship to contemporary ways of writing about gender and (same-sex) desire in the popular press.
