    This is a really important conversation to hear right now, and I absolutely loved what all the speakers said. Love seeing Bob the Drag Queen coming in with the facts about the anti-trans rhetoric and transmisogyny at the heart of these attacks on drag queens and on the LGBT community more broadly. Thank you for having this important conversation.

    The video just started and Bob is already initiating drama 'we are crackers' 🤣🤣🤣
    Edit: Fantastic conversation between Bob and Roy (as well as with the 2 other guests: Channing Joseph and Frank DeCaro). It was super interesting. And yeah, these drag names are amazing (Beyonda Scenes).

    They ain't going "miles and miles" out of their way to do what they think is right. Their traveling to where they believe society's approved scapegoats and victims are going to be to have what they think of as "fun". Think about "hunters" (like Donald Jr.) who flew all the way to Mongolia to shoot an endangered Argali sheep for kicks and his trophy room.
    We are talking full on psychopathic bullies, whose motto is "Cruelty is the point."
    I love Drag Queens. I've only been to a single show many years ago, but it was wonderful! Such incredibly talented and beautiful people!
    The most fun part was when I hit the ladies' room during the break and found several 6ft. tall, deep voiced, gorgeous women in there with me. I loved it. It was great seeing them up close and personal and to hang out a little bit.
    Never have I felt such cool and positive vibes in a public bathroom either before then or after.
    Thank you for this.

      @Puddock
      Calling it Reading is a term from Black Culture as is a lot of things used and not given credit. It means to give someone a listing of what is ultimately wrong they are doing or portraying etc. So maybe you might want to find out some of these things. Dances, music speaking patterns and words and other things. You unknowingly insulted a community. But you didn't know that but now you do. It's a learning process ask why things exist before you decide based on not understanding. And that's how we learn, understand and not insult
