how to style a drag queen

you dont have to be enrolled in those highfalutin' gender seminars where you go over kristeva and her insistence the harsh p consonant sounds in the word papa recall the act of anal penetration to know that in most cases, a drag queen ought to be addressed as 'she' or 'her' - not he/she, it, or whatever your mind came up with given the severe constraints imposed on it by not being able to think about anything besides that penis (!!!) under the sequins.

there are a few queens in this year's eurovision, and im sure youre all stunned by my decision to back the ukraine's verka serdyuchka.  now i can get my drag prowess, eurotrash tunes, and soviet kitsch in one place.
