Well before the movies, let's also not forget that Shakespeare has plays featuring cross dressing leads and the roles of women were played by men on stage.
Reminds me of a production of Hamlet I saw in SF, performed at different sites on and around Alcatraz Island, including inside the former prison. Hamlet was played magnificently by a woman, a nice nod to that tradition.
I support the message you’re trying to send, but in nearly all of these examples the character was there to get laughs at (or to be pitied for being a sympathetic straight man in a fix). It was at the expense of the character, not in support of drag. I mean, one of those shows was “Bosom Buddies.”
I have always loved drag queens. My first visit to a clandestine gay bar 1970s, I drank way too much, puked, & passed out with my head in the toilet. A queen helped me. I was 18 & that was my first interaction w a drag queen. I enjoy their shows & appreciate their steadfast defiance of the haters!
Yes... it's almost like a person can dress and behave the way they think is best and nobody else should be telling them it's wrong just because of what's between their legs.
Exactly. Would they have gone to their fainting couches after viewing Shakespeare in his era? More contrived nonsense along with completely misunderstanding DEI and using it to sell the underlying idea that only white men are worthy of their jobs

In my tiny, rural SC high school in the 80’s, they held “womenless weddings” as fundraisers. Boys would dress as brides, etc. & it was a whole big production. No one gave it a second thought. Then of course there were the powderpuff games, where the boys were cheerleaders & girls played touch 🏈.
He pretty much single-handedly fanned the flames of limiting the women to breeding, decorative objects status even further, and this would be achieved by barring men from looking like decorative themselves.
So now, what is, dressed resembling a boy? DRAB, 😆 Perfectly sums up male fashion for the last two centuries. But do you know why male Europeanclothing is indeed do drab? It USED to be crazy colors and such, right?
Just really curious, why is this a fight now? There are often more then one origin in these kind of things. And sure, Shakespeare is on paper but the connection between those two isn't. I also did not want to debunk anything, just add another theory.
Part of the problem is that many Conservatives do not see a difference between drag queens, transgender folks, and transvestites. They view them as all one and the same but only one of them is inherently sexual and typically involves straight men.
Right on! Drag has nothing to do with tanking the economy, eliminating government programs that benefit the people, threatening our national security, or robbing our pocketbooks. Stay focused Americans.
It's one more thing the GOP focuses on just like trans athletes. These issues have no substantial effect on society. They should be focusing on the promises they made to win the presidency
Flip Wilson did drag on his show and as a kid I use to laugh my ass off!! I never once thought him or Dusin Hoffman As Tootsie Or When John Wayne Did It Too!! So are they considered Groomers? HEEL NO IT WAS CALLED COMEDY AND IT WAS HILARIOUS!!

And remember, soldiers & sailors had to entertain themselves. The sailors in particular put on some spectacular shows. There’s a photo of some British sailors, in drag, manning the guns because an attack came just as they were getting ready to put on a show.
Good call. But if we're being honest, was "Yentl" really that entertaining? But thanks for not putting Adam Sandler in "Jack and Jill" on there. That definitely didn't entertain anyone.
You know the problem is MAGA secretly watches Drag Race so they have to say it is 'Research' for the next school board meeting so they can ban Drag Story Hours... You also know Red States are known for watching the most Trans porn of any state.
My daughter and I quote The Birdcage regularly. “I cannot wear shoes because they make me fall down.”
I remember I was shocked the first time I saw it that Robin Williams did not have either of the two most outrageous roles. It’s one of those movies I can watch over and over.
It’s a mean evil minded diversion to keep their followers minds off of what’s really going on. Transgender folks are not out to ruin or endanger anyone’s life. It’s this president and those he’s appointed and allied himself with who are.
I personally love seeing them at pride when it happens. Like, the way they are with kids is amazing. Like, I have yet to meet a kid who has an attack srring them. When pride events have to be canceled though out of concern for the LGBTQ+, That speaks on where the hatred lies
I think everyone should be allowed to be who they are and NOT because someone told them to be like that. If this is what make them happy, why should it bother you, your not going home with them. Maybe you should mind your own business instead, and look in the mirror before you judge anyone!

They swear drag queens are coming after their ankle biters 🙄 The real threat are those close to you. Most predators of children are someone close to them and usually of authority.
my daughter and I take a ferry to Fire Island, NY every summer; we hang on the beach, have dinner and see a delightful drag show its' a family tradiiton
I'll admit I never found it entertaining at all. That said, it causes NO harm. I will never fear people whom for whatever their reason chooses to defy norms when it causes no harm.
First drag show I ever saw was in 1985 and I was 8 months pregnant. I never had so much fun sober in my life. The Queen Mary in L.A. was so much fun that I would never forget it. Drag queens are a blessing not a dredge on humanity.
There are many of us who didn't like any of those shows. You forgot Jack and Jill with Adam Sandler, another one i didn't watch. It's not a phobia, it's like watching Black comedies or holocaust films, not relatable to me.
This movie is what made me realize that I have a very particular "type" to whom I'm attracted....Tim Curry's character in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" is SO sexy! 😍
Not to mention it was an imperative during the times when women weren’t allow to act and all female characters had to be played by men.
Feels like we are eventually go to go back to that.
There were many who wore what some would consider a dress including Romans & Greeks. Hell the main character in the Bible even did it. It’s what I call selective homo / transphobia. SMFH
Bezos made his fortune selling dildoes , pantyhose,and high heels to white christian males.Foot long cardboard boxes fill bins America wide once a week for recycling.
It’s not and never has been a problem.
Only by people defending and attacking when there is nothing to defend or attack does anything become a problem.
Thats you.

Both are simply stills from popular screwball comedy movies of ‘30s & ‘40s.
I’ll have to be more careful in the future.
Or have I dreamt it? 🤔
Charlie Chaplin:). Never thought anything of it
Wish I could remember where I heard that. 🙄

To be sure, ALL world cultures have transgender elements, just more or less repressed, because this is part of human culture.

Let's say for an example that USA is in middle of a civil war and one side begin to miss solders.
There's 5000 drags available , you will reject them because you don't like them ???????
If so, you are fucking idiots !!!
Donald Trump is crossdressing as a human and gets away with it.
You have to take both. And love both. Or fuck right off and make your own culture.

Psst ....thank you.
I can watch them over and over again. Both movies are masterpieces filled with genius actors and actresses!
That's why they hate it.

It had been a while since I watched tootsie..
