    Tom Hanks had a TV show about two guys who wear women’s clothes so they can live in a female only residence.

    Ran from 1980 to 1982 and it was never a big deal with the Christian Nationalists then.

      Some Like it Hot came out in 1959, and is about two guys who disguise themselves as women to hide from the mob. It did gangbusters despite not being approved by the Hayes Code, and is considered today to be an all time classic.

        Mr. Television, Milton Berle did drag; as did such popular stars as Flip Wilson and Jonathan Winters.

      Never seen the show, but isn’t this an instance where cross-dressing is seen as a gag and not necessarily an acceptable and normal thing to do?
