"I only wanted the Happy Meal with the boy toy"

WTF made it a "boy toy"? Did it have a little penis on it or something?

How to we go from its okay for boys to play with dolls to this kind of reasoning.

Or more like "reasoning"... yeah, I'm 100% with ya there: for someone who grew up on Free to Be You & Me 1970s-style anti-genderism, this crap is BEYOND dismaying. How can we be MORE backward about this now than we were a half-century ago???

Regardless of your views on drag, the point is for a man to create an exaggerated caricature of a woman through makeup & costume. If you're already a woman..like what did you even do to create the illusion ?

Yeah-- I always picture a female contestant who shows up looking like she just rolled out of bed (hair unbrushed, face unwashed, in dirty jeans and a raggedy-ass T-shirt) automatically winning first prize for Best Womanness. Kinda like dressing up as a pirate for Halloween when you actually ARE one.

Though this gives me an idea: a Drag Race-esque show where the goal isn't to look like a woman (or rather a caricature of one)... but to instead create a glamorous LOOK that's original, compelling, full of personality, and not tied to sex, sexual orientation, or gender. Anyone-- gay, bi, straight, male, or female-- could enter, and be judged on their imagination, skill, performance, and stage persona. Maybe this could be what "drag" evolves into? Aesthetic expression via makeup etc. that jettisons the traditional (and restrictive/sexist) association with the female gender-role? And thus with women, as well as their characterization as decorative/trivial? Cuz, gotta say: despite never having seen a single episode of RPDR to date... I'd watch the proverbial SHIT outta this.
