Late to work, I sprinted across the street carefully avoiding this massive pothole in the middle of the street. After I crossed the street, I noticed something very…well…out of the ordinary.
There was a person, with a very large Adams apple, rocking big hair extensions, sitting at the bus stop, singing the words to Michael Jackson “Thriller” in an extremely low voice. This six foot tall hot drag queen, who was apparently going to work, was wearing a low cut, very revealing dress.
After admiring he/she’s makeup and pink fishnets, I noticed something that clashed with the big hair extensions and outfit of the hot drag queen. Right above he/she’s breast was an ‘I voted’ sticker.
I don’t know why I was so taken back by the sticker. Why was it so peculiar to believe that drag queens with pink fishnets in Hollywood vote and care about policies? They have opinions about universal healthcare, the war in Iraq, poverty just like everyone else in the country. It’s interesting how you stereotype individuals before meeting them, even when you consider yourself progressive.
I wonder who the hot drag queen with the big hair extensions and pink fishnets voted for. I guess we will never know.
