Ok late to this particular party! And for the record I am most definitely not anti LGBTQ+

But as a feminist I have always found drag uncomfortable.. parodying the frivolous bits of women . My teens roll their eyes.. but am I alone?

In general, drag is misogynistic when you think about it. One of those things where it's fun and enjoyable and seems subversive but if you really think about it it IS parody and some of the lingo is pretty nasty "fishy" etc.

I saw Gia Gunn on All-stars, she is transitioning to live as a wonan whatever that means and honestly she just came over as a spiteful man performing some massive offensive stereotype of a teenage "mean girl".
