Keywords: Boulton and Park, transvestitism, homosexuality
Pages : | 1 |
Extract from a Penny Dreadful painting a lurid portrait of another Victorian scandal – that of the prosecution of the transvestites Ernest Boulton and Frederick William Park for conspiracy to commit sodomy in 1871. Note how the ‘revelations’ here continually skirt round the question of homosexuality itself, which is deemed almost too terrible to mention directly.
