[ Screenshot from History.com. ] In Brooklyn in 1913, for instance, a person who we would today call a transgender man was arrested for "masquerading in men's clothes," smoking and drinking in a bar. When the magistrate noted that the state's masquerade law was intended only to criminalize costumed dress used as a cover for another crime, the police were forced to let the man go. However, they promptly re-arrested him, charged him with "associating with idle and vicious persons," and found a new magistrate to try the case. When he was found guilty and sentenced to three years in a reformatory, the judge made it clear that despite the new charge, he was being punished for his dress. "No girl would dress in men's clothing unless she is twisted in her moral viewpoint," the magistrate proclaimed from the bench, according to a September 3, 1913 article in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.

Screenshot of a red tie with the elemental symbol for iron (“Fe”) above the word “man”. It’s meant to be read “Iron Man” but on first glance it looks like “Fe- MAN”.
