Context matters. I have no problem with men who are into wearing make-up and 'feminine' clothes. Anyway, where does one draw the line? Even Scottish men wear skirts. War-paint is also make-up. It is a style objection. Are we going to say that only SOME face-paint is objectionable? No, no, no so-and-so spent too many hours applying make-up.
There is also a long tradition of gender-swapping on stage (think Pantomime - as a kid, I laughed uproariously at the clumsy ugly sisters (men) in Cinderalla stage-plays, or a 'Prince' who is a lady, singing a duet with the leading lady - too funny - it's just what happens in Pantos). It even happens Shakespearean comedies. So, Lake 'having a discussion' with some painted people, is something that must be evaluated rather than condemned. Beware of labels. What were they doing to be all dressed up?
Naturally, I object against those who wave their goolies at children in libraries. Nor should children attend sexually explicit shows or perform in them.
But some of the most creative YT make-up channels are from men. And women follow them and buy their products.
Kari Lake celebrated and praised drag queens. I saw the video myself a few years ago. Don’t trust her. I’ll go with Sarah.
Hmmm, i never saw or heard that and would not expect that from her. But who knows....maybe some sauce will appear but for now i'm all in for KL as VP.
proofs? link? There are deep-fakes around too.
Yea, I’ll look tonight. It was during her time as a reporter. She gushed all over her drag queen friends. It wasn’t a fake. Its out there. Here is one: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/20/kari-lake-drag-queen/
