Can confirm, although late to the party, I live near the Peak District. Very little wokeness here. The homosexual transsexuals are accepted,and themselves aren’t overly woke. The blatant AGPs are viewed as weirdos. When I left my AGP ex people were quick to voice the fact they wondered why I didn’t leave sooner, and the first thing people usually say about him is that he looks like he is trying to wear “me”. No one is impressed, and a few who know the worse details of what he did to me are the last people he ever wants to bump into down a dark alley. The homosexual transsexuals have also threatened to set fire to him. So you’re probably quite safe here.The Peak District is incredible, it’s the Midlands really, rather than the North, but it’s got a more Northern feel because of the altitude and the climate. People are too ‘no nonsense’ to be bothering with gender crap. I recommend Buxton, the White Peak villages and dales, and the Dark Peak if you like it rugged. Manchester is just a stones throw away, just avoid the students areas which I’m sure are probably a haven of wokeness.
I lost my personality and memory “just by changing words”. Until you’ve had to live with a twisted perception of reality full time, you have no business commenting on what is lost with the manipulation of language.The loudest voices don't always represent the majority. But I can very much guarantee that transgender people get death threats. The person I know, who grew up with my friend and is now 50 years of age had her car windows smashed in outside of her house.
I don't think pronouns are lying, you are just making someone feel more comfortable. You lose nothing by making someone feel more comfortable just by changing a word.
Could you post some? I’m not trying to be funny or sarcastic but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a drag Queen who isn’t making a caricature of a woman.I could post a million photos here of Drag artists not caricaturing women.
I'm sure there will be some people here who just hate drag who will look at these and go 'gross'. Drag is meant to make people uncomfortable by confronting stereotypes. But its art, you don't have to appreciate it because art is subjective always but drag isn't about men in dresses trying to invade spaces and groom children. Its a f-u to gender stereotypes and society's vision of how we should be put in our boxes based off of what we are told. Clothes are genderless. By saying these are caricatures of women you're saying that make up and dresses are just for girls. One of those pictures is of a queen who was born biologically female. Thank you for asking too! And thank you to those who said for me not to run away. I appreciate that.Could you post some?

Bimini is in drag there, where they blur their lines of their own fashion and drag is through their own choices of styling, but those photos are literally from the programme Drag Race. The lines of it have been blurred through progression, the literal catchphrase thats put out there constantly is that we are all born naked and the rest is drag. Yes in the 90s and early 00s what was highlighted in traditional media may have been the 60s doll aesthetic and what could be considered regressive garb but still club kids were drag.I used to watch Drag Race but got disillusioned with the whole thing.
I don’t think the monster get up is actually drag. RPDR has stretched the definition of drag so far it’s not actually drag. It’s interesting, it’s costume-y, it’s arty… but that green monster get up isn’t drag.
The female to male to drag queen (can’t remember their name) is just someone who gets applauded for… having a female frame. No surprise that they can cinch their waist so small.
Bimini isn’t in drag in those photos. It’s just an androgynous look for a photoshoot. Bimini would have been a New Romantic or something in the 80s.
You don’t know a lot about drag… but I have already replied about this topic. And it’s not men in mushrooms costumes who read to children….Bimini is in drag there, where they blur their lines of their own fashion and drag is through their own choices of styling, but those photos are literally from the programme Drag Race.

Also in terms of the female to male drag queen, its not the female frame of a clinched waist that pushed them forward. There is literally a biological female drag queen on the UK series and Canadian series who would be seen as a bigger queen. The name in drag for that is bio-queen, as in biological woman queen. As in an understanding that a trans queen is not a biological woman.
You can't choose to define drag in one way when it encompassing so many different styles and forms of expression. Costume is drag. The monster looks are drag. Hence what I have said about drag is not one form of entertainment, there are layers to it beyond a man in a dress. I'm sure thats easy to see and it doesn't take anything away from us in anyway as women.
I do agree that its very easy to get disillusioned with the show because its so oversaturated. On the latest series though they have that discussion where a queen thought they had to dress more feminine and reductive in order to succeed because they were being asked to show different styles and they were brought back down to earth and told that that is backward thinking, they were literally sitting beside someone dressed as a giant mushroom.
Look at the size of all of the other girls compared to him! I’m not fatphobic but lets face it, if he was female and that size, he woudn’t have even got a look in. It’s a joke tbh.
I love that they have circled them, as if every woman couldn't tell at a glance which one is the man
I think it's even better with Pete Burns as your profile picture. It just shows men can dress as they like and wear make up, without proclaiming that they're a woman.This is exactly how I feel! My mother has a similar sentiment to those in this thread and I was neither here nor there on it until I looked more into it. I’m surrounded by those who say TWAW and have been accused of being transphobic before by misgendering someoneI had never heard of AGP or anything like that before coming into this thread. My eyes have been opened massively.
Edit: just realised how strange this might look being in here with a pete burns profile picture![]()

I’ve been to one drag show years ago in Edinburgh and felt the same. It was a horrible atmosphere where women in the audience were fair game for ridicule. From a man standing in drag looking ridiculous himself! The irony. Thankfully I was able to kinda hide behind my friend so I wasn’t targeted. I was a lot more shy back then and would have been mortified. At the time I was early 20’s and I didn’t know what to expect but I was told by my friends I’d love it as it was a hilarious show. It was not. I’ve hated drag ever since.I have to disagree. I really don’t see any difference between drag and blackface. Both are disrespectful and ‘punching down’. The costumes might be more elaborate and the singing seems innocuous but it’s still offensive. I’ve only been to one drag show and I’d never go back. I felt so uncomfortable in that audience. The performer was so aggressive against women, calling out women in the audience to mock them etc. I actually felt threatened. Awful.
Exactly. In the early days of the show it used to do a send up of America’s Next Top Model, but instead of “You’ve got Tyra mail” it was “You’ve got she-mail”. But that had to go because it was too offensive. Then they had to alter the main catchphrase of the ENTIRE SHOW because it was too offensive to address the queens as “gentlemen” and follow that up with “may the best woman win”.The damn show said for years “may the best woman win”, everyone refers to the queens as she / her when they’re in drag.
Just because trans identified men have infiltrated it rather than the usual gay men who traditionally partook in drag so Ru and the rest of the panel don’t dare criticise them for not looking feminine enough any more doesn’t distract from what it is. Ru had to backpedal due to comments on trans competitors so he is not trying to upset the TRAs and affect his coins.
I saw the outrage over this on Twitter as well but they all forgot that tiny detail that he’s insolitary confinement away from all male prisoners…but of course that’s not enough, he had his fool out but poor racist, misogynistic Nikita wasn’t sent to a female prison…A trans influencer, Nikita Dragun has been but in a mens prison and people aren’t happy about it.
Nikita is known for being problematic and misogynistic to black Women and women in general, this makes me laugh. Also I don’t see what’s wrong about his sex being put as male, Nikita IS male. Gender and sex are two different things, remember.![]()

Not a single person here has said drag is about men in dresses trying to invade spaces and groom children. Stop distorting what has been said in this forum. Plenty of people have said that drag has no place reading stories to children nor children being present in drag shows. You have been provided plenty of evidence of this but instead you portray drag as what it is shown on TV which is not what drag is to the people that do drag.I'm sure there will be some people here who just hate drag who will look at these and go 'gross'. Drag is meant to make people uncomfortable by confronting stereotypes. But its art, you don't have to appreciate it because art is subjective always but drag isn't about men in dresses trying to invade spaces and groom children.

Nikita is actually post-op so he was flashing his open gape out to everyoneI saw the outrage over this on Twitter as well but they all forgot that tiny detail that he’s insolitary confinement away from all male prisoners…but of course that’s not enough, he had his fool out but poor racist, misogynistic Nikita wasn’t sent to a female prison…
"Misgendered" so they'd rather news falsely report that a woman did this? As is often done with sex offenders, or like in Ezra Miller's case where the use of "they/them" was used to obscure the fact that he was a grown man alleged to have groomed an underage girlA trans influencer, Nikita Dragun has been but in a mens prison and people aren’t happy about it.
