Queens are thrifty AF, but I bet she dropped some cash on all that mylar.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

And obviously, they pride themselves on their attention to detail

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Fuck yeah they do.

I've quit drinking, but my home bar used to be the queer center of town. Large southern city but not Nashville size. All queer types welcome there, owner kept a bottle of top shelf bourbon for me.

Anyhow, the core of pride and drag was in that bar. I fucking love queens, they're so much fun. Gossip, sarcasm, black humor. Culture rooted in protest and free expression. My girl is genuinely big boned and tall. She was always talking clothes and shopping and makeup, has a flamboyant '50s style.

Anyhow, to all my straight peeps out there:

Going to a drag show is a fantastic date. Take a girl to a drag show and you'll have a great time. Ask around and find a small show that accepts outsiders. Don't be a total tourist, be respectful, admit you're a virgin and do the whip cream blowjob shot, it's candy flavored.

You will probably get lucky if you take a girl to a drag show. You may also have an in depth discussion about the history of queer protest or the pros and cons of assembly and C for microcontrollers. So many queer programmers, they must issue the socks along with the mechanical keyboard. You might get your dick sucked, but only if you want to.

do the whip cream blowjob shot

Uh… I think I'll pass on the opportunuty

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I looked it up, it's amaretto, Irish cream liqueur, and whipped cream. You take the shot without using your hands.

I'd do a few.

Is there an alternative for those who can't consume dairy?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

IDK, tell them your allergic to dairy and they'll mix something else.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Well I'm not a mixologist, but I'd assume you would replace the Irish cream with whisky (which is usually what Irish cream is made with), and omit the whipped cream.

The British take their kids to drag shows every Christmas

[-] [email protected] 24 points 2 days ago

Only facts here.

Seeing a man in a dress is so harmless it used to be mainstream children's entertainment.

I don't know how Christians can't see how much more regressive they've gotten in the past 30 years.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Christianity has always sucked

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Religion has always sucked.

I don't know how Christians can't see how much more regressive they've gotten in the past 30 years.

Seriously, they seem to want overshoot with some ill conceived idea.

[-] [email protected] 48 points 2 days ago

Disclaimer, this isn't true for everyone, but as somebody raised southern baptist, I think this image is missing the point.

The biggest risk for Christian parents having their kid go to a drag show is they might end up questioning Christianity, and rejecting it.

They're not wrong about that risk, just about the morality of it. They want to have their kid indoctrinated, but only into the things that believe. They see anything that takes their child away from Christianity as evil.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 20 hours ago

The ones in society screaming about indoctrination the most these days are just projecting. They want to be doing the indoctrination and any risk to that is "indoctrination".

Universities? Indoctrination. Queer people existing? Indoctrination.

Yikes

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

That's a risk for the parent not the child.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

Yes, and it's driving the parents actions.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

anything that takes their child away from Christianity

so like… thinking?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

They hate that too

[-] [email protected] 44 points 2 days ago

This.

Those kids might realize that there's people out there who don't do what the bible says - they crossdress, they're gay, they don't go to church, they don't believe in god - and yet, they're good people.

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago

This unlocked a memory for me.

When I finally saw out and proud queer people, I was fascinated. So many were nice and they were happy. I wanted to go with them!

My dad would always be fuming. "Those people flaunting their disgusting lifestyle."

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Lmfao, the same reaction came from my dad, then we got gay church brothers and his head practically exploded.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

The Bible isn't against any of those things. They chose to make their interpretation disagree with reality and now they have to constantly defend against reality.

Point is, it's a hard life being dishonest. That's why there's a rule against lying in that book.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I think your heart is in the right place, but the perspective may be a bit off, or I misunderstood you.

Saying that "the Bible isn't against those things" is kinda the same thing. In this instance, you may be an ally, but in some other topic you can be on the opposing end.

The heart of the matter isn't one of interpretation.

It's about seeing the bible as a rulebook, as a set of laws. That is the issue.

Choosing to see it as a collection of stories instead, from which one can reflect on and come to one's own moral values, that's something I can appreciate.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

We call people who don't do what the Bible says Christians.
