Same sex marrage is still illegal in the Phillipines and homosexual rights, protections and public opinion in the country are NOT very high or very secure. The need for a queer language in the nation is unfortunatley still there until these things change.

Lesbianism was not illegal in England. When the law against homosexuality was written, Queen Victoria did not believe women would “do things like that.”
Interesting phenomenon! I think the official term is "sociolect", and many languages have one or two among their social outcasts. That story sounds similar to "Rotwelsch" and "Jenisch", which are German sociolects and also were influenced by Romanes, Yiddish and Criminals cants (but had no influence on German Gay culture, as far as I know).
There.s a similar language in South Africa called Gayle. Was used exclusively by the LGBT+ community. One can still hear some people using it, younger LGBT+ people use it less though. Again, it came about to make sure members of the community could communicate without incriminating themselves.
In Hong Kong (a former British colony), I used to hear people describing feminine men as "cam". Little did I know it's actually a Polari word "camp" with bad pronunciation.
I'm "about 60 years old" and I remember knowing of and even seeing "Punch and Judy" puppet shows in the US when I was a child. I even remember my mother telling me that they glorified domestic violence.
I'm really glad that more and more countries have come far enough for people to be themselves, and to see the decline of the use of secret languages like Polari, despite their linguistic intrigues.
Fun Fact, Polari is far from the only example of a Cant used specifically by Gay people, There's a good Otherwords video about the topic in general (ruclips.net/video/UjqKcvu3Ycs/видео.html), but I'd like to specifically bring attention to the Gay Lingo of the Philippines, Also known as Swardspeak, Which is still used today and spoken by a friend of mine, Which has some pretty interesting etymologies of words involving borrowing from various different languages, For example apparently the phrase "New Guys" can mean "Things", Because the original Filipino word "Bagay" eventually morphed into "Bagong Guys", With "Bagong" being Filipino for "New", And then I guess that was translated to English as "New Guys".
Great video, I know you focused on Polari and British English but it’d be cool if you’d do a follow up on American (specifically Black and Brown) contributions to the lexicon of “gay words”. Shade, beat (as in makeup), tea, snatched, kiki… those are just a few words of the top of my head that come out of black and brown gay communities in the US that have jumped to being understood in the broader culture. And also how white gays have scooped up words and terminology from Black and Brown members of the community and “mainstreamed” them. Not a criticism but it’s important to document!
In Brazil we have Pajubá, with lots of words coming from African and Brazilian Indigenous languages!!! In a similar case to the US, Brazilian queer culture came mostly from afro-american communities. They were more accepting of gender non-conforming people because they would fuse the European imposed christianity with their original beliefs. Sending gay hugs from Brazil!
Missed opportunity for etymology- "drag" surely must have a connection with the Dutch "dragen", meaning "to wear". For example "Ik draag kleren" means "I wear clothes". The mnemonic I use to remember the verb is to think of drag in the sense discussed in this video.

I remember, when I was in the Army 40 years ago, lesbian friends in my unit, used the word "family", when referring to lesbians. For instance, they might ask a female, if they were "family", if they weren't sure, if she was a lesbian or at least cool with it. Back then, homosexuaity was technically against the rules but the rule was seldomly enforced. In the seldom case, that it was enforced, it was used to get rid of a problem soldier, that had other issues that were more difficult to prove or as part of several different charges, rather than a stand alone charge. Even so, it wasn't okay to be too obvious about it, because promotions & career success was based on what supervisors thought, so it didn't pay for a soldier to totally thumb their nose at the rules, even if eventually, everyone knew who was gay, since units were pretty close knit. Did you ever know or hear of the term "family" used in that context?
@@sparky6086 Wow that’s super interesting! I had no idea of that term! Thanks for sharing that with me.

No, what you're talking about is probably based on humor and the strong determined message that gay people will never go back into the metaphorical closet. There is a particular drag queen in my area whose name is "Safonda Peters", which sounds like "so fond of peters (slang for male genitalia)".Another example might be, "Anita Mann" ("I need a man").

Julian and Sandy - the introduction many had to Polari on _Round the Horne_ in the second half of the '60s. We were all avid listeners, gay or otherwise, and started to use Polari at school.
Many years ago I met a lesbian and we became friends after we exchanged numbers (before email existed). She handed me a pre-printed card she normally gave to women, it said, "Lez be friends!" I also got along well with her friends and they made me an honorary lesbian for a while. Those who needed to be seen with a man to hide their lesbianism referred to me as their "beard". All of us gay men and women were "friends of Dorothy" (reference to Dorothy Gale, the character played by Judy Garland in The Wizard of Oz). We had all kinds of code words back then.
@@blank_3768 Both The Bible and The Quran confirm that Sodom has committed homosexuality, and both scriptures confirm that It's forbidden. Some passages refer to the topic: [Jude 1:7] (As Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.) [KJV] [Quran 27:54-56] (And [mention] Lot, when he said to his people, "Do you commit immorality while you are seeing? Do you indeed approach men with desire instead of women? Rather, you are a people behaving ignorantly." But the answer of his people was not except that they said, "Expel the family of Lot from your city. Indeed, they are people who keep themselves pure.") [Saheeh International] Don't be ignorant, Homosexuality has been through history one of the worst sins, and only a few nations had the effrontery to commit it as it wasn't that famous, That's why the scriptures didn't talk about it that much, because no one (except the people of the 21st century) imagined that happening. but at the same time, God informed us of the story of Sodom to show how bad that sin is.
I'm excited for the moving front of social liberation to progress to the point where it decriminalizes people that love, grow, and own certain plants and fungi. Illimitable millions have been incarcerated where they have been perpetually brutalized, humiliated, and traumatized, having their entire lives destroyed all for the offense of needing or requiring, or adoring the positive affects of certain natural chemicals found in what would be rather inocuous plants and fungi. To this day (not merely in the 1960's) millions of human beings are locked up in steel cages for the harmless lifestyle they often times are not even afforded the option to "choose," given that medical necessity or finanical imperatives dictate their needs that are defined by centralized authoritarian Statists as "illegal." That would be a truly "Liberal" and "Progressive" society when clearly and obviously the most oppressed among us have the same rights as those that now have open parades.
@@DrWhoFanJ What's ambiguous about: "It was the doing of certain things that was illegal. (I could never understand why.)"? Saying that "Homosexuality was illegal' is false and misleading.
when for the last thousand years you where told to be ashamed for it, no it isn’t stupid. it’s also not just a sexual habit, that’s reductive. habits are chosen you don’t choose to be gay
Well when people stop trying to criminalize us we'll stop shoving it in people's faces. But so long as homophobia exists we don't really have the option of staying quiet, lest we die in the dark.
Queerness and pride is about far more than the sexuality aspect. And no, it is not stupid to be proud of one's community for enduring and continuing to fight for a more accepting and loving world. We are proud of the unique facets each and every one of us brings to the face of humanity. To say that pride is stupid would be akin to telling an artist or a poet they can't be proud of their work, or anyone proud of living a life that fits them, and telling people who face and endure horrible things in the world can't be proud of that.

and yet straight people have been wearing wedding rings just to point out their sexual habits for centuries. They seem to be pretty proud of it.
@@otsoko66 wedding rings have nothing to do with pride. It is a sign of commitment to your spouse.
Queerness and pride is about far more than the sexuality aspect.
And no, it is not stupid to be proud of one's community for enduring and continuing to fight for a more accepting and loving world. We are proud of the unique facets each and every one of us brings to the face of humanity.
To say that pride is stupid would be akin to telling an artist or a poet they can't be proud of their work, or anyone proud of living a life that fits them, and telling people who face and endure horrible things in the world can't be proud of that.
