Jessica23 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Drag Queens is performance art. It isn't quite relevant in this context, I feel. Drag queens know their gender, and they know their sexuality. Transvestism is the enjoyment of wearing another genders' clothes. That is an issue of knowing ones gender but enjoying crossing that boundary, irrelevant of sexual orientation. A child not being forced to stereotype their gender role is completely new. We don't have anything to compare it with. Performance art that plays with gender. Is it really so irrelevant, in the context of a discussion about gender?

Jessica23 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Well, I can empathise with that - I loathed football (and still do). I much preferred rugby. I can see how that must have been very difficult for you. My deepest sympathies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you want to roll about in a load of mud wrestling with other men? Oh, that's a different thread one thinks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cressida Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The story is from a Daily Mail article. Are they not responsible for their own output? You don't believe the Daily Mail seeks to incite moral outrage in it's readers? The devil makes work for idle hands. and idle minds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
