What was life like for an LGBTQ+ person living before Stonewall? Good question. Let's meet some eighteenth-century examples of queer pioneers. Delving into her niche interests (*cough* obsessions), Sam tells Lauren all about female husbands— people assigned female at birth who lived as men despite tremendous risk— and, of course, the women who married them. Grab your plus one, put on your dancing shoes, and consider this episode your cocktail hour.
