The Sultan of Sequins gave us Cher, Carol Burnett, Diana Ross, Tina Turner and generations of performers dressed in glamour, wit, feathers, rhinestones and glorious excess.

Thank you, Bob.

@howsexgotscrewedup.bsky.socialDYK #HavelockEllis used #eonism for all #transvestites after fencer #ChevalierdEon? D’Eon claimed to never have enjoyed #CrossDressing or sex.

@lambdalgbtpodcast.bsky.socialThis week we are talking about Iakkhos and Mise as manifestations of Gender Fluidity.
