A History of Women in Men’s Clothes - Norena Shopland

Gan dynnu ar ymchwil archifol helaeth, Norena Shopland fydd yn sôn am y menywod a heriodd gyfyngiadau cymdeithasol eu hoes trwy wisgo dillad dynion. O geisio annibyniaeth a diogelwch, i fynegi hunaniaeth rhywedd, bydd yr awdur yn datguddio profiadau’r menywod a fentrodd i fyw yn groes i reolau eu cyfnod.
