#asian drag queens

[daymarkist]

(cont.) "There's a stereotype of Asian men being feminine, being subdued, and quiet. They're seen as effeminate, you know - soft features, never in positions of authority, or of power. The irony is that here are Asian drag queens who are embracing and diving deep into a stereotypical feminine presentation, yet gaining so much power and strength and being on top. You put a little dash of makeup, a little dab of makeup, all of a sudden it's like: Wait, what just happened there? I never set out to inspire other people or try to be a role model. I feel kind of weird saying it - but only say that because other people have said so. I have met young people who have warmed my heart when they come up to me and say, 'When I watched you perform, when I saw you in drag, I came out.' Whoa! That's deep! They found a performance that I was probably nervous about, not realizing that it could inspire someone."

One of the reasons I love Marina and really any asian queen that gets on the show in any of the franchises is because asian representation on the show is so few and far between.

Like for example it's kind of heartbreaking to think that Raja remains the only asian winner of the main show.

On international franchises unless it's set in an asian country (PH and Thailand) asian queens are barely cast and if they are they don't make finale. To memory the only international asian queen to make finale is Kimmy Couture on CDR3.

#i just wanna see more asian queens on #like there was literally a point in time where an asian queen getting cast meant early elim or snatch game elim #drag race #ukvtw 2 #marina summers #bless the recent crop of asian queens showing off excellence #aurora matrix nymphia wind niohoru x

#TeamNymphia Never have we seen a queen who’s overcome the language barrier, overcome insecurities and faves us some of the best looks and moments all in the same season. This woman deserves to win and if you’re questioning her track record this is how it should have been. Win, Win, Safe, Win, Safe, Safe, Low, Win, Safe, High, Safe, High, Win.

rotating to wong foo thank you for everything Julie Newmar and Priscilla queen of the desert in my mind like a microwave

#something something different ways of presenting drag #to wong foo had the queens get in drag and stay in it for the whole film like #‘hey look it’s Wesley Snipes in a dress! hurhur!’ #contrast with Priscilla and how Tick and Adam are out of drag unless performing or practicing because it’s their job #i feel that to wong foo is sensationalising drag queens and Priscilla is actively engaging with them as complex individuals #i mean are shitty in parts too like Priscilla is really racist with its portrayal of an Asian immigrant woman #there’s lots to unpick #idk ramblings

So I'm here to declare my new founded love for Rina Sawayama cause holyfuck she's just everything. Like I had added Lucid from her to my playlist (ty Heartstopper) but after listening to Follow Me by Pabllo Vittar with Rina Sawayama I had to go and just listen to her. I haven't listened to all of her bangs yet, but as of now my favorite songs have to be Hold The Girl (cause fuck I cried watching the mv) and Comme Des Garços (Like The Boys) (cause it slaps). Thou, let'se real, they all slap. But yeah, check her out.

I hate when people think that drag queens are inherently sexual in nature! There have been literal drug parades and events that children are allowed to go to because they aren't non-family friendly and don't involve sexual themes! Drag is NOT a SEXUAL thing!!

Saw this and realized that every time a UK season had an asian queen they got sent home on Snatch Game

#drag race #drag race uk #sum ting wong #river medway #le fil #panina heals #ukvtw 2 is the first instance of an asian queen making it through snatch game in the uk #and that's only cause there were two asian queens #keta minaj

Congratulations to Nymphia Wind now for the Goddess on the left. So, as some of you know every season of Drag race that had 13 members I always did a fantasy season with Hunter and my characters where I would pair us up with the queen based on the respective personality’s and I’ve been doing this since season 12 but the last few seasons I could because they had 14 or more so I decided to add a new member. My Ground Goddess Courtney (who funny enough is named after Courtney Act) She’s Australian, Indian, White and sexy beautiful sweet kind. Her two jobs are to make the creatures of the world and to be the chef and make culinary food for all the world. She got pair with Nymphia and I’m beyond happy all hail queen Nymphia 💛💛💛🍌

Americans thinking the whole world knows their celebs, shows, food etc with such arrogance when they're ignorant af about major international stuff will never cease to amaze me in a negative way
