Drag Queens I have Known.

(2 minute read)

 Wear a dress, go to jail.

            Guys wearing dresses really really, really triggers Neo-Republican Fascists.  Triggers them so badly that NRFs in Tennessee are making it against the law.[1]  A second offense for violating the new law is a felony.  The law also criminalizes doctors providing care for transgender youth.  So much for parents’ rights.  Tennessee Governor Bill Lee is signing the law.  Here’s a picture of him dressed in drag.

Old Queens.

Dressing in drag is nothing new. 

            It seems like the first guy that I ever saw wearing a dress was Uncle Miltie, a.k.a. Milton Berle.[2]  It was on a black and white TV in the 50s.  There have been a host of others over the years.  Bob Hope and Jackie Gleason.  Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye.[3]  Flip Wilson.[4]  Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon.[5]  Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari.[6]  Patrick Swaze, Wesley Snipes and John Leguizamo. Jeff Bridges. Tyler Perry.[7]  Robin Williams.[8]  Dustin Hoffman.[9]  Rudy Giuliani. (Donald Trump guest appearance.)[10]  Jamie Farr.[11]  Dana Carvey.[12]  John Cleese et al.[13]  Bugs Bunny.[14] 

OMG!  Were they all pedophile groomers?

Jesus wore a dress.

            The point is that none of this, this being men dressing as women, is new.  In Shakespearean times women weren’t allowed to be actors and all roles were played by men.[15]  Jesus may have worn a one-piece tunic (John19:23 ESV)[16] BUT today’s Conservative Christian Nationalists would consider that a dress.[17]  Jesus would end up as a cross-dressing felon in Tennessee and soon in red states all across the great Christian nation that they are trying to create in their image. 

            I’m trying to imagine how 30-year-old never been married or dated Jesus would be received at CPAC if he showed up in a dress wearing sandals asking for little children to come to him.[18]  How would a dark-skinned Jesus in a dress go over at CPAC?  

Shades of McCarthyism![19]

            NRFs just have dirty minds.  They see what they want to see AND they see pedophiles and groomers everywhere.  They also see Marxists and Commies everywhere except for their special commie Putin.  He’s the smartest guy of their Putinista wing except for Trump of course.[20]  Now they’re doing the same thing only hiding behind children to cover their agenda.

They’re the groomers.
