Drag Bans And LGBT Youth: Which Matters More?

The Huffington Post/by Lola Olson       07/29/2015

"I say this so often, I'm starting to feel a bit like the ghost at the feast, but it bears repeating.

In the last few weeks, despite being fairly unplugged in some areas of social media, I've managed to hear about the now infamous supposed decision to ban drag by Glasgow Free Pride. Before I say anything else on the matter, I'd like to point out that Free Pride have released a statement regarding their decision and where drag stands now which, if you haven't read already, you should read Free Pride's statement.

I'm not going to talk about where drag stands in the LGBT, or even specifically within the transgender umbrella or community, if you consider there to be one. I'm not going to hash that out here for two reasons."
