Drag culture is gay male misogyny.

It's basically blackface except harmful stereotypes of black pple aren't the costume. Harmful stereotypes of ALL women are.

Their characters are vein, innept, hysterical, self absorbed, stupid, untrustworthy, over the top, emotional. All that
These are literally the stereotypes women have spent literal CENTRURIES running away from.

These stereotypes where used as VALID reasons as to why we didn't belong in places like the work force, the medical field, STEM, the military, school, the voting booth, the office room
The truth is we're never going to have an honest conversation on how insulting this "artform" is 'cus we're in denial abt gay misogyny since we see gay men as our "girlfriends" & it's hard to confront them on their own misogyny since they' Re victims of misogyny too.
Drag is an insulting parody of womanhood. It honestly disturbs me to find out that this is how men see us.

I look at it & I'm honestly disturbed with how men see us & choose to portray us.

But gay men are going to fight tooth and pedicured nail to keep this going aren't they?
