God didn't tell him to put on a dress. He stole the idea from a transwoman who was doing comedy skits. This is all Tyler's doing. However, he is a great businessman. I will definitely give him that.

Never did like Tyler’s movies…not a good move for the community 😑. It’s embarrassing that black entertainers stoop so low.

[@annap9702]

I thought men playing the role of women was common early in film or theater because they didn’t allow women on stage. How have we turned that into the emasculation of men? It’s role playing/acting!!

Flip wilson said the devil made him do it

[@Pierrecousteau]

Explain Flip Wilson? is it different??? I don’t see it!

[@anthonysalas6690]

Flip Wilson was a black comedian from the 60s who had his own comedy show. He had a character in drag named Geraldine Jones.

[@Pierrecousteau]

Was there a question of him being gay? Or was it just a different time?

[@anthonysalas6690]

@Pierrecousteau not that I know of. He was a big star, had a wife and family, I believe, but was big cocaine user. There is a biography our autobiography about him.

[@WillieJohnson-d3v]

Yes!
