Title A name given to the resource Monocle-Bar Description An account of the resource The Monocle-Bar was one of three prominent transgender-inclusive bars in Weimar era Berlin, alongside its peers Silhouette and Mikado Bar. Remembered of those three as being popular with actors, the Monocle, along with its peers, rose to popularity later into its years of operation as the much more popular trans-inclusive Eldorado grew a reputation for pandering to heterosexual thrill-seekers. The Monocle especially was liked by those who felt the scene was becoming too crowded due to its "militantly gynocentric" attitude: as recounted in Mel Gordon's Voluptuous Panic, "A hefty female transvestite at the door [...] holding a riding crop in one transgendered hand [...] made certain males did not enter." However, like many other popular clubs at the time, Nazis were known to have made their way inside - most notably Wolf-Heinrich Graf von Helldorff, who was ousted from his position as a head SA officer after it was found he frequented the Monocle. Members of its cabaret act recall him, drunk, heckling them with requests to play the Horst-Wessel-Lied.
