@@kwonjiahn8389 I’m so glad you and @sleepvillainz discovered who you are. ❤️ In my evangelical family, I was just “creative” and “sensitive,” and later on, I “struggled” with “same-sex attraction.” That conditioning really fucked me up (depression, addiction, suicidal ideation and several attempts) until I got actual (medical), affirmative healthcare (at 27). Evangelicalism is no joke. LGBTQ education would have saved me (probably all of us) from a lot of needless suffering. We have to keep fighting for little us’s to have access to acceptance, regardless of how vehemently bigots react. Everyone deserves to know who they are.

it's because bullying works. in the US, particularly in cities, you can't be homophobic. you'll either lose your job or someone will fck you up. it's definitely different in home life and rural areas, but like Trixie said, it's so spread out in the US. You have to go to cities to be successful or even just to go to a decent bar. Some loser on the street might say a gay slur, but they're not going to do anything because they know they can't get away with anything beyond that.

As a Glaswegian I'm so sad to hear about Katyas experience in Glasgow. Scottish people are genuinely known for being super friendly and kind, but I totally get the experience of coming across a group of drunken guys (or NEDS as we call them: 'Non-Educated Delinquents') late at night can be frightening, even for us locals!

[@XxstardropzdreammxX]

I appreciate the term NEDS & feel like it needs to be used in more places 😂

[@janejanejaney]

It's not just neds though tbf. I've dealt with plenty of middle to upper class people on nights out or hanging out with family/ friends who get a kick out of mocking or questioning the existence of queer people. I find them especially annoying bc they can't blame hostile environment or lack of education for their ignorance, which is typically the case for folk you might call neds. Comfortable people are just bored of their lives and resent themselves for it, so they like to subjugate non-boring people for entertainment and ego.

[@rirerose]

Not trying to brew an argument or anything, but I was in Scotland way back in 2004, and the kids there were rotten. We were told that bullying was a real issue. Those kids would be in their late 20's right about now, and I can just picture them being the type of people Katya spoke of.

[@richiethev4623]

@@rirerose hey in 2004 America was also really rotten with bullies in particular all over Southern Cali so those kids age range's now 21-36 yes bullying was rotten ripe from grade school all the way up to high school but nowadays programs for anti bullying have been reinforced and a strong stance has happened. It's a turtle pace change but at the very least it's happening and I can say it's working because as someone who is 33 with a ten yearold son who got bullied for a rapid short period and when my sisters(his auntie's) n' nana steeped in with the school(they didn't let me go with them because they know I have a short fuse and will get loudly ghetto so yeah that is why I avoided going) they properly handled the situation with his school along with the bully and my son no longer gets bullied much better day's🌈💯🤗 I hope someday the school system in Glasgow would do something similar because trust my words the anti bully program does work and is extremely affective...

[@butasimpleidiotwizard]

@@janejanejaney they don't do it because they resent themselves they do it because they think they're better than everyone else and no one ever taught them otherwise when they were young enough to learn, they think it's funny and that people who are different to them don't matter, the consequence their behaviour has on the people they harass doesn't matter to them because they genuinely don't believe it's important or worth caring about. They aren't really suffering for their actions which is frustrating to admit but it is true, the only way to make them suffer is to make the people they bully matter.

[@beardpandaa]

I think many men are taught that violence is a way to protect themselves and defend their masculinity. I think it's a fight or flight response to people who already resort to violence to confront their fears. I think it can be sad and speaks to the fragility of identity for someone who never had to confront their selfhood when challenged (fragile masculinity as a concept). If you have to have to confront that at an early age like us out queer people, you learn early that the stability of your identity only depends on your ability to accept yourself and not on the opinions of those around you or society's expectations. That's not always true for all queer people but I think it puts us at an advantage in that way to get started earlier on being able to confront our identity sooner. Some people never form a distinct personhood or come to understand identity and just conform to what's expected of them. Some people just fit in to what's expected of them, are never challenged, and never have to think about identity in that way.

Not just for males tho. I’m bisexual and mostly feminine. Whenever I go to straight clubs with my boyfriend, I have a very violent mindset.

@@stevennguyen4993 it’s almost as if Pride was curated to include all walks of life from all communities to gather together in their authenticity and not be judged. After being silenced, either socially or put to death for being gay, Pride is for everyone to be loud and proud about who they are. As you said, most people are private about their personal lives (which I’m sure you said that to focus the value of “privacy” onto straight people who want gays to be quietly gay) but the thing is, behind closed doors, regardless of sexuality or gender, people are doing things that you wouldn’t approve of if they were made public. Everyone has a right to be loud and proud about who they are, it’s not gay peoples responsibility to make straight people comfortable and it’s not straight peoples responsibility or right to choose how gay people express themselves. You can simply mind your business or at least be educated if you’re going to insert yourself into a persons life

I accidentally came out to my mom and brother a week or so ago… my brother was being homophobic. Saying something about how he wouldn’t go to a gay person’s wedding. And I just felt so hurt and offended and before I realized it I said “well I’m bi. Would you not come to my wedding if I marry a woman?” And he said “no, I’d come to yours, but I’d sit in the back.” And he was serious. I feel lucky to have the support of my mom. She doesn’t do the warm and fuzzy emotions thing. She would never be one of those moms at a pride parade. But she’s very vocal when she doesn’t like something, and she was silent. My coming out story is so much better than a lot of people’s, and I feel grateful for that. But I think the shock of not only my brother’s blatant rejection and accidentally coming out like that I’m just kind of off kilter. Not great. It helps to watch videos like this, and I love these two fine gentle ladies. I try to remind myself that I can be quietly proud and not outwardly talk about it even though I’m technically out now. And that’s okay. Anyway, sorry. Blabber mouth.

im so sorry that was their reaction! u deserve better. many would and will love u just the way u are

Please upload the full version day-until-noon interview, I do really enjoy both of them so much!

[@SuperOMGFTWBBQ]

Provincetown is one of the most magical, open, accepting, inclusive, beautiful towns I’ve ever been to. I have a summer vacation home in cape cod and I make an effort to visit Ptown every year. This year, they had carnival, which they haven’t had in a while due to covid, and it was AMAZING. First time ever being there for it and it was literally the most eccentric and spectacular day I’ve ever had. I always recommend people put it on their bucket lists

[@cookieslarue3023]

I feel like they think we wouldn’t want them to be this chill and casual for their show but idk, the vibes here are immaculate

[@ddjackso26]

Not Katya being that kid you can’t take anywhere and Trixie giving her the mom eyes… like girrrl, don’t start no international incident😂😂😂 or “f” up the gig 💴. Swear Katya is me, what comes up, comes out. Love this interview. Love love love ❤️!!

[@joemanu96]

born and raised in Ireland and i always have heard "oh were very friendly people, if your nice we accept anyone" yeah for like a day, far from it. how insecure people are here, if your a dude wearing a normal pink/salmon shirt/tshirt and take one wrong turn your gonna get soo many eyeballs and decent chance of being called the F word from the other side of the street. not even with drag, being a guy and wearing a lick of nail polish in public. just black, let alone a colour, feels like you got a knife at your neck here in the UK/Ireland. doesnt stop me tho hahaha.

[@jamesb4729]

Yeah I don’t get that Ireland is full of friendly people stereotype. I mean sure they are chatty, and not very reserved, but they’re not particularly nicer than people anywhere else.

[@alexysq2660]

That really is a bloody shame, particularly when you consider that Ireland is - as far as i'm aware - the first and still the only country on the planet to have instated marriage equality by large-ish majority vote in referendum 😕😔....

[@joemanu96]

@@alexysq2660 wasn't one of the first to legalize it. But I remember it was first to say it was fully protected by law though with like a 65% majority in like 2015. I'm under the assumption that it along with gay people in general are more accepted in the Republic where this happened. But where I live which is in the North it was only legalized in like 2017 and only because it was more pressured from mainland Britain cause the North is part of the UK. I say this because the political party here thats always held power due to majority populuse voters is against it completely for "religious reasons" if It wasn't forced in by England it would still most likely be illegal here... Not to mention we got heavy religious roots, then also the due to us recovering slowly from the Troubles, which happened here for decades so most people are still have very backwards mindsets here in general.

[@alexysq2660]

@@joemanu96 Oh, yes i know actually; i am a Brit in fact, although of largely - but not 'exclusively' 😏 - Irish ethnicity and heritage, born in Manchester and raised in ( outer west ) London. And, yeah, i did also know about Ulster's having been, sadly, quite a bit 'behind' when it came/comes to a lot of pro-lgbtq+ legislation/'acceptance'/inclusion, etc. Are you from Belfast, btw ? From what i know of it, having been a few times ( had relatives in [ County ] Armagh and in Dunmurry [ BT ... who aren't even Protestant 😯😆...! ] ), BT seems to be the more 'progressive- ish' portion of the region ( oh and, by "BT" i do of course mean Belfast [ city and district ] as i realise that it is also actually the Post Code designation for all of N Ireland, yes ? ) But, yeah: the rather rapid change in social and 'religion-rooted' mindset in the Republic ( Eire ) quite surprised and favourably impressed me, considering just how much were their own deeply-ingrained RC 'religious' inculcation and belief system ( those bleedin' "papists" 😂: i was raised RC incidentally, my school and all [ only just primary though, thankfully...! ] but not at all 'obsessive-compulsively', am happy to recall 😌.... ) so the way they've managed in so relatively short a time span to pretty much throw-off t h a t yoke, especially younger people oc, is truly an impressive achievement well done and very much to their credit. Hopefully that 'attitudinal sea-change' shall soon also begin spreading up into and throughout Ulster as well 🥺.... ~At any rate then, cheers and thanks very much for having replied to what i'd commented😊; do keep well 💚💖...!

I went on a date with my then boyfriend, we were gonna get Japanese food and the go hang out at a bar and listen to the live bands. On the way to the Japanese place we walked past some queen’s on their way to a gig. I was like ooh pretty clothes, and this one brought backup hair and I turned to my then boyfriend to say about how much I liked their outfits only to find him on the other side of the street. We broke up pretty much right after that date. I dunno what he was so damn scared of.

I remember meeting Trixie out of drag at my Gym in Cardiff! She was doing her one woman show at thr St Davids Theatre! He was so so sweet and kind, he did ask Is it OK to wear his Workout outfit to train as he wasn't sure how safe from homophobes, but I assured him Cardiff is a pretty safe places and the Gym itself was VERY LGBTQ+ Friendly! I wish I had more time to talk but I'd finished a night shift there and needed to go sleep 😅
