Ralph Kerwineo (April 1876 - 1932) was an American who became notable after a 1914 incident in which Mamie White, the woman who had lived as Kerwineo's wife for over ten years, revealed to the local police Kerwineo's "true sex" (female). It was supposedly in retaliation to a legal marriage of Kerwineo and twenty-one-year-old Dorothy Kleinowski, and resulted in a police arrest and trial for disorderly conduct. The Milwaukee press followed the case with keen interest, however this local coverage did not pathologize Kerwineo, but preferred to describe a story of an upstanding citizen who donned male dress to support female partners. All charges were ultimately dropped.

dbo:abstract
  • Ralph Kerwineo, né en avril 1876 et mort en 1932 est un Américain qui est devenu célèbre après un incident de 1914 au cours duquel Mamie White, la femme qui avait vécu comme épouse de Kerwineo pendant plus de dix ans, révèle à la police locale le «vrai sexe» assigné à Kerwineo. Il s'agissait pour Mamie White de représailles à la suite du mariage légal de Kerwineo et de Dorothy Kleinowski, âgée de vingt et un ans. Kerwineo est arrêté par la police et poursuivi en justice. La presse de Milwaukee suit l'affaire avec un vif intérêt, et cette couverture locale ne pathologise pas Kerwineo, mais préfère décrire l'histoire d'un citoyen honnête qui a enfilé un habit masculin pour soutenir ses partenaires féminines. Toutes les accusations ont finalement été abandonnées. (fr)
