"A new documentary features the lives of nine transgender and drag individuals in Puerto Rico. Exclusively shown at a handful of film festivals last year, Antonio Santini and Dan Sickles' film 'Mala Mala' has premièred this week in New York. "
My opinion, and although it may not be agreeable, but I will share it, is:
I just have trouble with trans* being associated like this with drag for the public viewing because I feel it provides a perception of deligitimization for transgender and transsexual people. I understand and have no problem with drag queens. Do not misunderstand me. But, they are not necessarily transgender people and the common misconception in the public is that if you are trans, then you are a drag queen. Which, in turn, implies that you may be dressed as one gender in one situation, and another gender in some other situation, which leads to a perception that trans* are not serious about their gender identity.
