SHE-MAN, NANCE, SISSY, and FAIRY (pejorative) (jan 1, 1920 – jan 1, 1940)

Description:

"Most of the vernacular terms used by "normal" observers for fairies, such as she-man, nance, and sissy, as well as fairy itself, emphasized the centrality of effeminacy to their character" (Chauncey, Gay New York, 15).
