    drag queens have a right to… drag? personal life doesn’t impact professional life or affect any parties not involved. People should be able to find their happiness in this fucked up world.

    And to be more clear. I’m criticizing people who have let their upbringing convince them that something that is none of their business somehow impacts their personal life

      Absolutely, it’s also completely ridiculous that she seems to recognize that drag can be fun and chill, yet continues to double down on the phobia.

      It shouldn’t, but the reality is that it does. When someone has a bad day and Karens out, maybe says some especially heinous stuff, maybe says some racist stuff. They usually aren’t at work. They are usually fine at doing their jobs but quite a few people have been fired over stuff like that. That is definitely personal life affecting professional life.

      I could keep going, but the reality is that it has become quite acceptable these days to get in professional hot water for what you do when you aren’t on the clock.

      Hell, even drug tests at work are usually getting punished in your professional life for your personal life.

        Yeah. I might have misspoke in that regard. What my ultimate opinion is that if your personal life isn’t impacted by what stranger’s do, then you have no position to properly speak on it
