I am about to say maybe the dumbest thing you've ever heard but this is actually very serious!
I love Drag Queens......I know I know calm down don't leave! Each drag queen I watch has taught me something, it's also a huge comfort for me to know that I am not the only one that feels lie they are hated. I started watching drag last year I was 12 and I didn't realize it was a man in a wig. I watched at least two a day, I became very addicted and then i realized that they were men! Crazy!!! So I watched makeup tutorials by them and after a while I was watching about eight to ten videos a day. I got very depressed one day I had just had a fight with my cousin some terrible hurtful things were said and I was laying in my bed thinking "Well I don't know what to do. I can't talk to anyone." After an hour I decided that I would just watch some Drag. Why not? I watched it for three hours and that's when i realized watching Drag was my safety blanket. It made me laugh I watched beautiful people for hours and fantasize over their makeup what else could I possibly ask for? I was doing homework one day and I needed a break and so I watched Drag and I came across a song that one of them wrote and that lead to a album and from there I only listened and watched drag. Forget the Chainsmokers and Lady gaga I was listening to Adore Delano and Sharon needles I was content. After a while I realized that I had been watching Drag queens since I can remember it just was never this serious. When I was around eight I watched "Big Mama's House" on a loop from that I turned 11 and watched Tyler Perry's "Madea" Non stop. That's when I knew I had loved Drag queens since FOREVER! I still to this day watch Drag on a four hour loop in fact I watch it so much I remake their videos on YouTube. Watching drag has taught me many lessons. To be yourself, to stand up for yourself, never let anyone tell you you can't be something, follow your dreams no matter what. I will probably always love Drag that's one thing that will never change but as long as I am happy and content and they teach me to be myself and love everyone who has done me wrong, than who am I to say I should stop? Who knows maybe I will change Drag queens lives just as they have changed mine!
