‘“Fairies” were effeminate men who wore unusual and distinctive garb (sometimes women’s clothing, but often eccentric articles like red ties or brightly colored suits) and behaved in a distinctively “feminine” manner, including holding their wrists limply and speaking in higher-pitched voices. These stereotypical behaviors signaled their identity and sexual availability to “queers” and “trade.” Non-effeminate men attracted to other men self-identified as “queer.” “Trade” were men who identified as “normal” (and often had wives or girlfriends) but had sex with other men.’ From ‘Celebrating Our Rich And Surprising History In George Chauncey’s Groundbreaking “Gay New York”’ Posted on October 01, 2017 by Amy Heller https://milestonefilms.com/blogs/news/celebrating-the-rich-and-surprising-history-of-george-chauncey-s-groundbreaking-gay-new-york
