Teaserama

Film poster for Teaserama

  • ... that Teaserama (poster pictured) featured a man in drag dancing in a manner erotic to heterosexual men?
  • ALT1:... that the 1955 film Teaserama (poster pictured) featured a man in drag as "gender sabotage" against the prevailing sexual norms of the time?

Long enough, new enough, no image issues, offline source accepted in good faith. I like ALT 1 best.--Ishtar456 (talk) 21:52, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

  • Just to help verify, here's the quote from the book.

    "Lynn's drag numbers in Varietease and Teaserama are presented with the same degree of sensuality and tease as the strips by women. [...] Vicki Lynn's two performances [...] were by no means isolated instances of gender sabotage in the burlesque film metatext."

That page is not visible in the preview of the book, thus, accepted in good faith.--Ishtar456 (talk) 23:24, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
