Author Suzanne Falkiner was doing research on the origins of St Vincents Hospital in Sydney when she came across the curious case of Eugenia Falleni, a cross dressing killer in the 1920s. Only the story Dr Falkiner tells in Eugenia, A Man is far deeper than those words (cross dressing killer) suggest. Eugenia's life intersected with another killer, Dorothy Mort, who did not need to cross dress to kill the man she loved, but feared she was losing. The dead man, Claude Tozer an honoured soldier and GP who had treated her. Tozer was also an opening bat who might have played for Australia in the summer WW Armstrong won the Ashes 5 -0. Tozer was not Mort's husband. Eugenia got lessons in reading and writing from Mrs Mort in jail. It is worth checking out the books.
Cross dressers in history are known. The bible has some soldiers cross dressing in Joshua while scouting a city they hoped to invade. During the Roman persecutions of Christians, a Eugenia dressed as a man, but was discovered and sainted. James Barry dressed as a man and became a surgeon in the nineteenth century. James performed the first known c-section where both mother and child survived. It was circa 1816 in South Africa and did not involve anaesthesia. Later, James worked in the Crimea where Florence Nightingale met and despised her. James' gender was only discovered after her death.
Women dressing as men makes sense because of the possibility of mobility and power. Men dressing as women makes sense when they are trying to hide. But it is an over reach to say cross dressing just makes sense.
There is no evidence that Turnbull cross dresses, but he isn't supporting freedom of speech.
For some, at the moment, the Sex Party has more credibility.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air
What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

It is good, but here is my response
I've finished the first book for Bread of Life compilation for populist podcasters VivaFrei, AUS, The Duran and Bongino.
In the first volume, with quotes from months Jan to Apr, I write about how Australia came to be up to Federation.
In the 2nd volume I write about Australia from Federation to Menzies (Ming the Merciless)
In the third edition I write about Australia post Menzies.
