        Watch the movie, it explains it all. James Cagney gave a great performance.

        Disappointed! "Yankees" was Dutch names "Jan" + "Kees" - the Dutch epitomizing oafish provincials to the English. "Doodle" meant corpse.

        So the English were calling American colonists bumbling gay yokel corpses in our beloved "patriotic" song. Disappointed in your author, NYT!

        "Yankee doodle" was a pejorative term for a gay person. "Dandy" is still used in literature for effeminate males. I have lol-ed for years.

        I just watched Jimmy Cagney movie about Geo Cohen. Yankee Doodle Dandy was his throwback to the revolution, stage set English racetrack.
