Drag Queens & (Trans) Women

"There was quite an inflammatory thread on our boards recently about drag queens and crossdressers who dress in over-the-top ways, and it's gotten me thinking. I've often heard that feminists hate drag queens because they mock women, which has always baffled me, for two reasons: (1) I don't think all DQs are mocking women, and my guess is that most are not, and (2) I think there's about a million feminist issues to deal with and that the relative powerlessness of your average DQ is hardly a major problem."
