An Edwardian woman dressed the part of a handsome Dandy writes a message to her lover,  “Hello Kid:- How you be? I am Fine don’t I look it. You know you must not set this card on the switch board where you do your others”. What an intrepid romance it must have been.

“Pachucas broke taboos of their time by wearing men’s-style pants sometimes and appearing in public often with their pachuco boyfriends; at the time, a “good woman” was considered to have her place in the home. They defied gender stereotypes and roles in Mexican-American culture in much the same way flappers had in European-American culture in the 1920s.“ (x).
