Sissies Throughout History

Adlai Stephenson

Neils Bohr

OP

Liberace

Leonardo DiCaprio. He's just a better actor with the ability to turn it off when necessary. He's fairly queeny when not promoting.

Leslie Jordan

Snagglepuss

Peter Lorre in The Maltese Falcon

I think the term would be "Troubled Bright Sissy Boy."

Cantinflas.

Tom Cruise

John Lone, the last emperor.

The Nome King in "Return To Oz". They couldn't get the rights to the ruby slipper imagery, so they made their own. The Nome King is definitely a Datalounger.

Paul Lynde is what counts as history? Srsly, doesn't anyone read real history any more?

Go back at least a hundred years, guys.

R88, WTF?

R92 What does "throughout history" mean?

Taylor Lautner - saw him in an interview and purses were flying out of his mouth. He kept it under control when in character in Twilight (the only thing I've seen him in - and only a Mystery Science Theater, or whatever that show is with with talking heads making fun of films)

Rip Taylor

Aw, has everyone forgotten my favorite aerobics guru, Richard Simmons?

Levi Strauss

r97 Have you forgotten how to read?

Sorry, Milton (R34). I just skimmed over the list and missed your signature line. Hope you're well! I worry about you all the time.

Mr. Humphries

Wayland Flowers, even without Madame, but she is the icing on that sissy cake.

[Quote]Paul Lynde is what counts as history? Srsly, doesn't anyone read real history any more? Go back at least a hundred years, guys.

R92 You have a point. Here's Philippe I, the gay brother of King Louis XIV.

[Quote]Although he was open about his homosexuality and freely acted effeminately, he married twice and fathered several children. He was the founder of the House of Orléans, a cadet branch of the ruling House of Bourbon, and thus the direct ancestor of Louis Philippe I, who ruled France from 1830 until 1848 in the July Monarchy.

Martin Short

Are Dataloungers really this dumb? We are asked for historical examples and we post our favorite comedian or actor.

So yeah, the IQ in here is barely reaching double digits.

Jesus!

R105, history includes comedians. You sound dumb

King Edward II

James VI and I of Scotland

Little Lord Fauntleroy

Lord Alfred Douglas

Louie Anderson

R105 Your condescending attitude is very telling. This is a silly thread that people were enjoying. But it actually triggered you. We're sorry about your prolapse. Just because one door gets closed. Doesn't mean another can't open. Get a few cats and try to enjoy the rest of your life.

Ugly Betty’s nephew.

That QUEEN on I Love Lucy who was shell shocked from being a juror on a murder trial and was taking refuge in the Ricardo's apartment for the summer .

Sissy Spacek

Hello r105 here Smh.

No wonder someone like Trump got elected president. You - and you know who you are - are dumber than a box of hair. Yes. You ^and ^^. You're so dumb you don't know how dumb you sound!

But bless your hearts. Get vaccinated and wear a mask.

Mike Pence

R168 Me, having not known that E.F. Benson was gay, but it making sense that the author of the Mapp and Lucia novels was gay!

Billy Porter

Isaac Bickerstaffe

Percy Livermore

Clifton Webb

The queeniest Congressman this side of Aaron Schock

James Buchanan, the 15th President of the United States (1857-1861). He remains the only President to be elected from Pennsylvania and to remain a lifelong bachelor and William Rufus DeVane King, Buchanan's roommate and speculated partner.

Andrew Jackson called William Rufus King "Miss Nancy" and Buchanan's own Postmaster General Aaron V. Brown referred to King as Buchanan's "better half", "wife", and "Aunt Fancy"

Andrew Jackson sounds like a bitchy DLer!!!

So, I study the 1320s.

Do you think there were Sissies back then?

Gayner O. Smith

the late John Lewis

Richard I - Lionhearted Sloppy Bottom

Noel Coward

Ivor Novello

Fred Barnes

Ganymede

who was that famous sissy/pansy comedian in the early 1930s who did musical and comedy monologues? I think he was American, used to do that “oh YOU!” kind of hand gesture when getting laughs at punchlines. Very gay voice and flaming, but sort of vanished after the 1930s, probably due to production codes which forbade deviants.

R197 Perhaps you’re thinking of Joe Besser or Benny Rubin.

Switzerland

Fred Barnes sounds like he was a camp hoot

R200, damn, he was cute too. Sad ending though, taken down by alcohol (and TB which wasnt curable back then).

All the gay lives that were destroyed by society, eaten up and spat out

Oscar Wilde

E.M. Forster

Jack Deleon

Arnold Stang

I heard Oscar Wilde actually was quite butch.

Quentin Crisp

He says as he throws his turquoise scarf over his shoulder and flounces away melodramatically!

Barney Fife

Barney was a cross-dresser but no homo. And I'm the woman who can prove it.

Hmm...

Mr. Rogers, from “Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood.”

This insufferable cunt.
