Oscar Wilde is a MAP as shown in his «The love that dares not speak its name» speech and other sources.

Allen Ginsberg is a MAP as we know from his membership to NAMBLA and other sources.

Are there any other famous radqueer people you would like to include in this series of real life famous radqueer people?

    There’s tons of famous MAPs, but I guess it depends on what kind of group you’re aiming for. If it’s celebrities, we can mention people like Michael Jackson and the Dalai Lama (multiple Dalai Lamas, if I’m not mistaken, including the current one). If it’s activists, we can mention Harry Hay, who was an incredible ally to all sexual minorities.

      Anyone who is a radqueer, para, or transID is welcomed in this series. Also thank you for telling me about Harry Hay, this is my first time learning about him.

    NAMBLA’s report on Alan Turing, the famous computer scientist. https://nambla.org/Turing.html

    I believe NAMBLA wrote about Sappho being a girl-lover as well.

    Lewis Carroll (girl lover), J.M. Barrie (boy lover)…

    Oscar Wilde also theorized that Shakespeare was a MAP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Portrait_of_Mr._W._H.

    +1 for Michael Jackson, I strongly believe he would have identified as transage if it were known to him / socially acceptable, and very possibly a child-lover.
