      Yeah, sometimes people just don’t want to listen to reason. As frustrating as it is, there’s not much one can change about it. What a weird ass take on their part. How the hell do you even come to that conclusion.

        Insecurity. I’ll admit that seeing people in drag can still make me feel uneasy and insecure in myself. It reminds me of my physical flaws. Since I was a little kid, I felt that “guy in drag” is what I’d look like if I tried to be at all feminine, and seeing a guy in drag has been a reminder of that feeling.

        So yeah, insecurity caused by internalized homophobia and transphobia can lead to weird rationalizations for feelings of dread.

        Obviously, there’s nothing wrong with drag. This is a personal issue that needs to be resolved internally.
