As someone who isn't into drag at all I might be in the wrong here but... I think using a female persona only as a fantasy and a performance isn't bad. It's not like they think they're real women. They like the extravagance and like I said, they're living out a fantasy and they acknowledge it as such. As long as the people doing it aren't misogynistic (which I can imagine some of them are), the drag itself isn't. Women who are heavily into make up are into it as well but they don't think it's what "makes them a woman".

Would you feel the same if the things that were used as a fantasy were disability, race or sexual orientation?
