Can we add a drag queen forum?

[Julie Marie]

And many drag queens are the gateways to transsexual women...that is the ultrafemme gay male. Drag leads to transition because there is so much alienation in the ultramasculine gay world.

They have a perspective too.

And so do fundamentalist christians.

But really, you're right.  Start off as a gay male.  Then become a drag queen.  And before you know it, you're going through transition and out comes a woman.  Every transwoman I know wants to look like a drag queen and act like an ultra-feminine gay man.  Hell, if we could just get that message out there I'll bet we can get the Republicans to support us.

Or we could support everyones right to do what they want.

Or we could support everyones right to do what they want.

I think we already do.

So we can have a Drag Queen forum then?

[Julie Marie]

No need.  Everything that would be discussed in a drag queen section can be discussed in any number of existing sections already available.  If someone wants to start a blog and focus it on drag art, then please contact one of the staff.

For those supporting a special section for drag queens, if you're thinking that section will attract drag queens to come here and do Q&A sessions with the members here, I'd think again.  I doubt that would ever work.  Drag is a very different world than the world most of us live in.  Spend a little time inside it and you can see for yourself.

And with that folks, I think we need to end this discussion.  It's run its course.  Thank you all for participating.  If you need information about drag, feel free to use Google or visit your local gay bar when they are doing drag night and talk to the performers.  They love the attention.

Ok here's the deal, we already have a breakdown of areas to cover the entirety of the gender spectrum, and wherever  a drag queen fits in, they are welcome.

That being said, it is a limited interest group to say the least and is smaller than we can support individually.

I have no problems if drag queens or kings threads are started in the crossdresser forums, and if a drag queen or king wishes to declare that as their identification on their custom title that is fine as well.
