One thing I have seen happening: in a party or meeting. Almost any female that its there has a subconscious reaction when an obnoxious queen joins an start talking and moving and you know how they do that.
The reaction its that those women will reduce and restrain their movement, speech and other feminine behavior because they will be thinking (subconsciously) dont compare me with that thing. Like I have say queens make a caricature of a woman (or what they think its a woman) and its a stereotype of being gay.
I mean, I dont get it. If gay its being a male who likes males. Its all about masculinity, why adopt/steal/pervert feminine behaviors? Many young gays get trapped in that stereotype thinking its whats expected from them.
But if those persons are indeed feminine they I dont see a problem, jsut the way they act... agh!
NO! Not that at all. In fact, I kind of find your reading of them to be offensive.
No my problem is the catty-ness(for lack of a more specific word) of them. Like I'm not saying an effiminate gay guy. Or even a drag queen. I'm saying a QUEEN.
A queen is like this hurricane of drama and catty comments that comes in. And they are worse than frat boys for transgender people, because just like frat boys, they will sit in the corner with their friends and make obnoxious and mean comments about you, or come over and talk to you in a very condescending manner. A queen thinks everyone exists beneath them, and the whole world is there for them to mess with. They are completely self-absorbed buttholes.
Like Christian Serriano on Project Runway, I would say is a Queen. Queen's in my experience also are some of the more bigoted people you'll run into in the queer community.
Like I said, I dislike them for the same reasons I dislike drunk frat boys. The arrogance and self-absorption that manifests itself in mean spirited actions is a turn off to me.

For a bunch of people who demand a hella lot of acceptance, you sure give zero.
I think I'm talking about something diffrent from Ann and Zelane. It's not the fem stuff of them that I have a problem with. Like I said, I don't care about effiminate gay guys. They are all really diffrent, so how would you even make a blanket statement. But Queen to me is a certain way of being, like frat boy, that is about a lot of negative things. It's the comments, the self absorption, the desire to put people down who are by themselves to amuse their friends. Queens are vicious! That's why they are queens. Unless the Queen is your friend, I don't think anyone ENJOYS queens that much.
