Don We Now Our (Hopefully-Not-So-)Gay Apparel
Well, this is interesting. Guess who was behind the temporary, ineffectual ban on drag in the Johannesburg Pride Parade? A gay group that calls drag "degrading and anti-gay".
You know, I'm a bad gay. I sometimes flinch at my fellow queers when they act a little too exorbitant, even though I know I shouldn't. But bitch, please. Drag is the ultimate in genderfuck and queer spirit. "Anti-gay"? No. Only people who think drag is what gays shouldn't do are not only homophobic, but also have a flagpole up their ass. And not in a fun way.
