(Anonymous) 2021-04-22 02:01 am (UTC)(link)This, good lord. The heavy, heavy, heavy emphasis on pageant/ballroom/fish drag is so tiring, when there's so much more out there? Genderfuck is nonexistent to Drag Race, all of the weird intersections of gender performance are just... not there. And that bums me out, because I love drag, I frequent clubs and even perform myself sometimes, and it's messy and fun and trashy and beautiful. I just don't see that on RPDR. And it is bc RuPaul is a deeply binary thinker. There is no grey area in RuPaul's drag. It's either "out of drag = man" or "in drag = woman". Which is fine, but... to enforce that so insidiously is terrible.

I wish there was a show that had the gender fuckery/mess etc without the horror/goth element? Only cause it would be more mainstream--I know ppl who would be open to the genderfuck but puke etc freaks them out. And there are artists that are a happy medium that haven't found a home to be showcased, yet.
Maybe a show that focuses on a local drag place that does shows and the different sort of queens/kings/etc that come through.
I do think We're Here showed different types of drag even if the drag queens running the show were more 'conventional' -- the way they made up their focus each show was different and allowed them to do lots of gender fuckery (thinking of the Native American espiode esp where they talked about two-spirit ppl)
