Because a part of me is in denial of my gayness, I didn't want to recognize it at first. Mainly I see it with advertisers. Gayness is a word that's hard to define except by example. Give an example. In the next issue, Mike and I are dressed up as women in several cases, but that's just drag.
Some woman say they find drag degrading or belittling to women.
I shouldn't use the word drag, it's more like costume, putting on a mask for a little bit. It's camp, mostly costume, not making fun of women. The spirit of gayness breaks through the judgments and rescues us from so much. We are not really attached to the idea that we are homosexuals or male lovers, but I see this a lot in others. Sometimes male lovers bring on stigma, bring on hate.
