- W2474889709 abstract "��� Emilie Spencer Deer was an accomplished woman from an accomplished family. She was born in 1893 in Oakland, where her father was professor of Greek at California College. Later, her father accepted a professorship of philosophy at Denison College in Ohio, eventually serving as dean and acting president. Emilie's sister was the first woman to earn a doctorate in library science. Emilie's husband, Roy Burton Deer, was successively a pastor and executive at the state and national levels of the American Baptist Churches, USA. Emilie herself was for three years a music student at the Conservatory of Music at Denison College, but started her family before graduating. The Spencers and Deers, like many in the professional class, were committed Republicans. In 1948, however, Emilie Deer let her family know that she would vote for President Truman instead of Thomas E. Dewey because she did not like Dewey's mustache. 1 At first blush, this appears to be an absurd reason for an educated Republican to favor the Democratic president over his Republican challenger. Taken in context, however, and considering the role that mustaches played in the social symbolism of her time, Mrs. Deer's decision is understandable. There is, moreover, plenty of evidence that she was not alone in her thinking. She was reading the masculine code: a clean-shaven man was sociable and reliable. A mustached man, by contrast, demonstrated a willful independence that did not engender confidence in Emilie Deer's mind. The purpose of this article is not to rewrite the history of the razor-close election of 1948. Instead, it is to deepen our understanding of twentieth-century masculinity by considering the performative function of facial hair. Gender theorists, whether they focus on gender as an organizing principle of social power or as a component of individual subjectivity, agree that gender concepts are historically constructed, and that they find expression in both social discourse and physical presentation. Indeed, for the theorist Judith Butler, these verbal and physical presentations are inseparable from gender identity itself, which, she argues, “is performatively constituted by the very ‘expressions’ that are said to be" @default.
