Drag examines femininity in popular culture, not everyday life. It's a send up of the appearances, attitudes, and behaviors of female pop celebs and divas. I think the samey-ness of drag comes from the sad fact that there are very specific societal expectations of women in those roles.

I'm still confused what it's examining. It's parodying and copying, but where is the actual examination? Most of it seems to be uncritically happy to adopt the behaviors?

Would you agree that parody is a form of critique?

Parody that has something to say is a form of critique. There has to be a critical point of view, and it can't be 'this is fun and great.' Parodying something uncritically and declaring it fun and cool is just joining in.

If someone told me Drag Race is critique I'd lol
