Homos are an Abomination.

There is no way of gilding that Lily or Lou. The LGBT crowd is shoving their perversity down our throats. We need to fight back by having a short hunting season on Queers!

[fortes fortuna juvat]

Their ticket sales must really suck.

I cannot provide any detailed info, but I’ve heard that Williamsburg and other such historic venues are increasingly devoid of visitors nowadays.

[Tudorfly]

What a load of garbage and a complete waste of money for all involved.

[OttawaFreeper]

Well, glad that I went there a couple of years ago.

[KingofZion]

That was my though exactly. What is there to reenact?

[maddog55]

It’s a yuppie place to say the least so not surprising.

[MHT]

Like other historic venues, they are going broke. This is a desperate, last-ditch effort to cabbage onto the WOKE bandwagon in hopes of some sort of financial benefit. Millennials don’t care about Colonial history and are shamed by the slavery of the time. Boomers are dying off. The economics of recent leisure expenditure is focused on sports or fantasy-directed. Covid was the final blow.

Technically, this goes against their mission unless those lesbians ended up in Virginia.

We were in Chesapeake earlier this month for a family reunion. The wife and I had enjoyed a previous visit to Williamsburg and we decided to go again while our kids and grandkids went to Busch Gardens. It was disappointing to see how much it changed in the name of wokeism. I did enjoy the presentation of Patrick Henry at Charlton’s Stage. It was an informative and accurate portrayal of his life.

[Bloodandgravy]

Authentic cobblestone alley buggery.

[larrytown]

You got it. Actual history has been besmirched, and it’s the natural reaction of people to avoid that which they deem unhealthy/corrupted.

While I don't like to see people pushing absurd sexuality theories, cross dressing was not unknown in Colonial America.

"Robert Livingston, the Grandfather of his namesake, a New York Patriot during the American Revolution, was quoted as saying that hundreds saw the Governor daily promenading "in women's cloths." Lewis Morris, who would later serve as Governor of New Jersey himself later in life, and also a Grandfather of a namesake who served in the Continental Congress noted that Lord Cornbury “rarely fails of being dresst in Women's Cloaths every day, and almost half his time is spent that way, and seldom misses it on sacrement day...and this is not privately, but in the face of the sun and the sight of the town." Elias Neau, a prominent merchant who also became known as a religious educator for slaves, noted: "My Lord Cornbury has and dos still make use of an unfortunate Custom of dressing himself in Womens Cloaths and of exposing himself in that Garb upon the Ramparts to the view of the public; in that dress he draws a World of Spectators about him and consequently as many Censures.""

Since they're quoting my 8th great grandfather, Robert Livingston, and my 7th great grandfather, Lewis Morris, I find that I have to believe in their accounts. Morris, by the way, cowrote the first play written in America. I lucked out and was able to spend several days in New Jersey copying all of Morris' handwritten papers.

Lord Cornbury's reputation was the pits, agreed, but you got away with much when you had royal connections.

In 1777, Thomas Jefferson and others worked on a proposed new criminal code for Virginia in anticipation of the success of the American Revolution. The proposed new sodomy law would have eliminated the death penalty and replaced it with castration for males and the boring of a hole through the nose of a woman. The proposal did not become law, but clearly showed that women were subject to prosecution under current legal thinking.

[fwdude]

Sodomy was once considered a capital crime in Colonial Williamsburg. That’s all you need to know.

[TexasGurl24]

Yep.

Most likely, the bleed over from ultra-leftist Wm & Mary College in this town is responsible for this. Most universities infect the city they parasitize.
