[Anonymous]

It's called "sex", not "gender".

100% this. Kids don’t need to be exposed to drag queens at all. No place for it in schools.

What other groups of Americans do you think high schoolers should not be exposed to? Just for reference.

As a woman, I find drag queens offensive. They use hyper sexualized clothing and makeup to imitate and exaggerate females for humor and entertainment. It is degrading.

Yeah, No. 1. Not all drag queens wear revealing clothing 2. calling drag makeup hyper-sexualized is the most palpably incorrect statement I’ve ever heard. 3. Drag queens DO NOT exaggerate/mock women, they mock the concept made by society of how women “should” behave. If you don’t get irony, you won’t get drag. And 4. Drag queens actually respect and admire women. Educate Yourself.

Edgy and deep, just like blackface.

Except blackface is mockery, drag isn’t. Gender and race are 2 different things. Use your brain.

Insults don’t work on me.

Make your case that drag is not mockery and produce evidence that drag queens “respect and admire women.”

From one of the best! RuPaul - "Gay men don’t do drag to mock women, we do drag to mock the cultural concept of identity. If you don’t get irony, you don’t get drag."

Does he also believe that “white people don’t do blackface to mock black people, but to mock the cultural concept of identity. If you don’t get irony, you don’t get black face”.

Sex and skin color are both immutable physical characteristics.

Drag and blackface are quite literally the same thing.

That article is nonsense.
“
Minstrelsy was being performed by whites in positions of cultural and local power, whereas drag is performed by a marginalized group who are subject to fear and repression,” Brundage said. “To be a drag queen is not an act of privilege. It’s just not comparable.”
“

False. Drag is performed by an oppressor class, men. And appropriate and mocks a historically oppressed class, women.

sex is biology, drag queens don’t change their biology while in drag, because obviously that’s physically impossible. They dress hyper-feminine, (like how society thinks WOMEN should be) so yeah, in this context it’s “gender” not “sex”

Oh great. Another bigot-filled thread.

Stripping isn’t mentioned, bondage isn’t mentioned, the only time they use the word kinky is when referring to the boots. None of the actors are dressed/ dancing provocatively. I get that some people may be misinformed because they’ve only seen the broadway version(if that…) , but a HIGH SCHOOL version of the show isn’t going to be as mature as the broadway version. Thought that was obvious.

Because the bigots hate LGBTQ.

No, it’s more than gender. Try again. Drag queens adorn fake breasts and padded hips and buttocks.

Literal appropriation of women’s sex characteristics.

Tell me again how this is different than appropriating black skin for “entertainment”.
