I've always been intrigued and totally support it!

He'd be out as often as he kid in P'town as Miss Ohio. He was so completely transformed -- and so in performance mode -- when in drag that I never had any idea how to relate to him.Moving with Mitchellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12954028272162285597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188983699731524293.post-76915193211103332062019-01-09T02:42:54.042-05:002019-01-09T02:42:54.042-05:00You love his book.

I was flipping through channels one night, caught the runway part and thought, "Oh, it's Project Runway," but later, caught on, it wasn't! Been enjoying the show (and watching reruns) since.<br /><br />When I first saw RuPaul, I thought, "What a gorgeous woman!" Then someone said, "That's a dude...a fine dude!" Fine indeed! There were drag queens in my remote, rural coast. But they were very down to earth, nice looking, girl next door of not proper classy lady looking. Then I visited some cousins in San Francisco, and Bam! Colorful, Vibrant, Fabulously Over The Top, highly stylized queens!<br /><br />To me, Drag is an art form. It's wonderful and entertaining performance art!<br /><br />And you look spectacular and stunning!<br /><br />eroswingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06678990077292314028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8188983699731524293.post-14114103261421015342019-01-08T23:08:06.202-05:002019-01-08T23:08:06.202-05:00I am in awe of the art of drag; all that talent an...I am in awe of the art of drag; all that talent and creativity is just stunning.<br />Also stunning, is the history you're sharing.

I find it entertaining and fascinating.
