I don't think this is correct: "homosexuality in England was illegal, punishable by execution". Wasn't it buggery that was illegal, rather than homosexuality per se? DavidFarmbrough08:37, 29 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Not correct, homosexuality was never illegal. It was homosexual acts that were banned. The Act criminalized "gross indecency with another male, whether "in public or in private"".203.184.41.226 (talk) 22:22, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
According to Rock 'n' Roll lore, the song "Good Golly Miss Molly" by Little Richard (1956) was a direct refrence to this and alludes to his days as a drag queen in such an establishment.
You would need a WP:RS before you can insert that here, and there isn't one on that page - the only source (Rolling Stone) makes no mention of this. Mish (talk) 10:43, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I know a lot of TV's nower days like BDSM and there must have been men back then sort out suck activitys.
There are no references to any place where men could go and see a dominatrix.
There must have been somewhere, its like prostitution its one of the oldest professions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.9.121.129 (talk) 19:45, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hello everybody contributing to this page.
I'm a student from a History of English Culture class at Ca' Foscari University and as part of my exam I chose to (try and) contribute to the improving of this article.
My references for the moment are:

Hi, I know you have already been checking the Old Bailey website, but I have found this, and I think it might provide you with some new information, especially because of the introductory reading you find at the bottom of the page! Here you go: The Old Bailey - HomosexualityAsile91 (talk) 11:20, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @Asile91:, thank you for reminding me that link, it was one of the first article I read but I almost forgot it while looking for other suggestions!
Hi Pbord! I have chosen your article to do the assignment of week 10.So I hope you do not mind me offering suggestions to you. I will be just telling some of the things I would do at this point if I had to expand this article. But, of course, the validity and pertinence of my advice needs to be checked with our instructors. I really like the general structure but I would at least add more information in the sections "Famous molly houses in London", "Molly Houses and law enforcement" and "Trials related to molly houses". Perhaps, one could give more details about the mentioned people, places and acts (ex. Margaret Clap, Buggery Act 1533 and Charles Hitchen). In addition, one could report the story of one or more exemplary cases in the section "Trials related to molly houses". Thank you! Ml17221746 (talk) 15:00, 15 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @Ml17221746:, actually I'm currently working on the expansion of the sections you just cited, unluckily the difficulties I find lay in the integration of the content that was already present and my sources, and this slows considerably my work. Anyway, thank you very much, your feedback tells me I'm going to the right direction.
I have just modified one external link on Molly house. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:
