Just so you know. This is a reminder that there's space for God between us at all times.
00:01:08.220
This is the reminder. This is my chastity bell.
00:01:15.060
Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Comment Section Show starring me, your fave.
00:01:25.220
Happy spooky season, team. Here we are. First costume of the season. One of my favorite food
00:01:32.240
groups. And yes, I'm recently engaged. Oh my god, thank you so much for asking. Yes, I'm recently
00:01:36.600
engaged. Yes, thank you so much. But enough about me and my wonderful, amazing engagement.
00:01:41.760
On to the guests. Today we have the iconic, the legendary, the wonderful, the amazing,
00:01:52.920
I know, I feel underdressed. I didn't know we were doing costumes today.
00:01:55.840
I know. Mine's from Spirit Halloween and yours is clearly made with love.
00:02:00.120
I would love to know the T on your costume. This is the best costume I've ever had on the show.
00:02:04.000
Thank you. Yeah, also Spirit. I just got it today. It's crazy what they got on it right now.
00:02:08.900
It's crazy how they formed it perfectly to your figure. That's crazy.
00:02:18.740
I'm so happy to have you. I'm happy to be here. Thank you for having me.
00:02:21.820
Oh my gosh. Anything for y'all. I'm collecting drag queens like infinity.
00:02:25.700
This one at a time. You gotta go faster. There's so many seasons being pumped out.
00:02:29.100
I know. You gotta catch up. They're moving at light speed. I can't keep you. I can't keep up.
00:02:33.300
Anyways, so happy to have you. Huge fan. I would love to know, for those that don't, to give your lore.
00:02:41.380
Because first off, you're the first straight person to ever be on Drag Race.
00:02:46.020
Yeah, the first cishet man. Make sure I'm getting all the words there.
00:02:55.940
And I'm excited to have you. I'd love to know more about your lore. How you got into drag. What drew you to it.
00:03:04.000
I feel like that's such a long story that'd waste the entire podcast.
00:03:08.140
We probably have more impressing things to get to, like TikTok comments.
00:03:10.560
But in summary, I just got really nihilistic. I grew up in a really small town, like in Arkansas.
00:03:19.280
And I wasn't like the other kids. I felt a little different.
00:03:29.100
No, I don't know. I just, like, I didn't vibe with, like, kind of, like, all the box of, like, heteronormativity man southern.
00:03:35.860
And I was just like, is there more in this provincial life?
00:03:38.960
And after, like, high school, I just kind of went on this long journey of, like, anything I was curious about, try anything.
00:03:48.280
And, yeah, I didn't expect to be here. Just kind of fumbled my way along.
00:03:57.260
Because I've gotten very mixed reviews from all my friends on Drag Race.
00:04:05.180
Impactful. No, I mean, like, again, like, I was from, like, small town Arkansas.
00:04:12.400
That's crazy. That was your first time on a plane?
00:04:14.020
Yeah, because, you know, like, in Arkansas, like, the most you can hope for is to get on, like, the local news.
00:04:18.460
For, like, you know, local teen, win state spelling bee or something.
00:04:25.040
So it was, like, simultaneously, like, terrifying, but also exciting.
00:04:33.660
That's the general consensus I get from all of them.
00:04:35.980
I mean, like, it's, I'm thankful for the experience, but it's, like, I don't know.
00:04:48.420
It's not nearly as fun as it looks watching it from home.
00:04:52.080
They edit it to make it seem like it's a great time.
00:04:53.760
It's, like, they cut out, like, the six hours you're sitting, like, in a booth and being fed, like, awful, like, truck food.
00:05:01.320
Everything has so much arugula on it for some reason.
00:05:03.760
I've joked about that before with other queens.
00:05:05.780
Like, it's, like, the amazing race, but you're in drag the whole time.
00:05:10.140
You have to, like, sew, and you have to be funny, and you have to be talented, and you have to be engaging.
00:05:22.060
And now you have your own show, podcast, called Give It To Me Straight.
00:05:27.420
Well, like, when I'm on the show, obviously, like I said, I was there very briefly.
00:05:30.920
And, you know, like, they don't get to tell a lot of your story because, you know, it's in, out, quick edit, throw it out there.
00:05:37.880
And, like, all the interviews that I've done after the show, it's, like, when are you lip-sing?
00:05:48.020
And I'm, like, there's so much more than just, like, what's on Drag Race.
00:05:51.740
Like, I want to know, like, why did you get into drag?
00:05:59.340
So, I started, like, a little show and just kind of deep diving on queens and other guests.
00:06:07.880
I'd love to know, like, what the reaction has been for you personally as far as, like, online or maybe, like, from fans or maybe not fans.
00:06:15.320
Like, as far as being the only cis-hit man to be on Drag Race.
00:06:18.460
Like, I'd love to know, how are men reacting to that, like, other straight men that hate Drag Race or whatever?
00:06:27.100
Well, I was going to say, if they're watching Drag Race.
00:06:29.980
I don't think the straight guys have found out about me yet.
00:06:33.140
They've heard whispers in the trees, but they haven't.
00:06:38.700
You know, they went through, like, the stages of grief online and processing.
00:06:44.100
It's not every day you hear about a cis-hit person on, you know, something like that.
00:06:55.800
Like, how has it expanded your, like, audience?
00:07:01.700
Because they get to hear a little bit more from you.
00:07:03.780
Like, immediately after the show, I started posting a lot more, like, online.
00:07:06.180
Because I was like, well, now I get to, like, just kind of put myself out there.
00:07:08.840
You get that initial, like, runoff audience from being on the show.
00:07:16.340
Just started creating content and putting out the stuff that, like, I want to show people.
00:07:23.300
And, yeah, since then, it's, like, become, like, overwhelmingly positive.
00:07:31.220
Because things are going concerningly well right now.
00:07:38.760
Just like, oh, let's see what's going to happen next.
00:07:45.060
I mean, like, there's, like, occasional comments.
00:07:47.480
Like, the worst I get, though, it's, like, any time I post something or someone, like,
00:07:50.840
comments something about, like, sexuality, someone's just like, oh, you actually believe
00:08:27.120
Sometimes when people tell me, they're like, how do I avoid getting hate?
00:08:31.440
I was like, if you're online, let me know if you find out a way to get rid of, to ignore
00:08:37.220
Like, even like, if, if like Mr. Rogers was a TikTok creator today, there would be like
00:08:41.800
people shitting on him in comments and just being like, he's like too kind.
00:08:45.700
They're like, so there's something off about him.
00:08:54.360
You guys have no idea like what kind of person she is.
00:08:57.480
Cause you can't get it based off her just making little charcuterie boards all the
00:09:01.580
So like when people are like, I don't know, just a bad vibe.
00:09:08.520
Hey, that's really weird to see someone and be like, nah, unless they're like outwardly
00:09:14.500
I can't really imagine a world in which that makes a lot of sense to like make up your
00:09:19.400
I just can't imagine just walking through the world with so much just vitriol.
00:09:22.280
You're just like walking through like Walmart and you're just like, mm-mm.
00:09:35.520
That's contrary to what people may think about me.
00:09:42.860
Sometimes when they, when they bring that up to me, they're like, are you just like
00:09:50.700
I'm like, no, I'm, I actually never spend time with men I dislike.
00:10:00.480
And I've always said that, but speaking of comments, right.
00:10:05.640
We're going to be talking about, we're unpacking hateful hot takes on YouTube commentary shows.
00:10:10.740
So I've had quite a few men make dissertations about me on YouTube, on YouTube specifically.
00:10:20.200
On YouTube, especially because I don't really have any sort of presence there, which is
00:10:28.820
But that's just because do it on a, do it on a field where we can both come, bro.
00:10:33.280
Like I'm on, I'm on YouTube, but like, I don't really post anything there, but they,
00:10:38.000
I think also because they can make like 30 minute videos, but.
00:10:47.120
I feel like the TikTok algorithm, like comment wise has gotten worse.
00:10:50.000
Cause when I first started like making content, it was all reaching like my audience or people
00:10:54.580
And now I post something and it doesn't get near as much traction.
00:10:56.820
And then the comments are like, the fuck is this?
00:11:00.880
Like you got, you got shoved to the other side.
00:11:03.060
They're like, so I was like, are these men or it's like, why did this reach you?
00:11:09.780
Like why, why did the fucking Jerry, the good old boy from Alabama get this on his feed?
00:11:16.580
He just doesn't want to talk about why that's on his feed.
00:11:21.980
On TikTok, I always know when someone's talking about me because I'll get like an influx of
00:11:28.400
a bunch of fucking involuntarily celibate men and they're all in my shit saying shit to
00:11:37.500
So that's why I'm like, someone's talking about me and then I'll go and look in my mentions
00:11:40.860
and if I can't find it, a lot of times that means they blocked me.
00:11:43.820
But like, which I think is a bitch move to do too.
00:11:55.260
Like literally like dogs, but dogs can sense like tornadoes or something.
00:12:02.300
It's like when your knee hurts and you get too many.
00:12:06.600
When my left tit hurts, it's going to rain and someone's talking about me.
00:12:12.740
I made a video about this because a while ago, have you ever gotten like, I always like
00:12:17.040
to ask to be a little, sometimes I'll get comments that are not hate.
00:12:23.060
But they're, they're like really backhanded compliments.
00:12:27.180
That's something I didn't really experience until people started to like me.
00:12:31.060
I got cast on the season and it was, it was everyone either saying like, fuck this person
00:12:38.940
And then like some negativity, like she's not that funny.
00:12:42.620
But then the audience started to like me and you started getting all this stuff like,
00:12:47.380
Beautiful little peasant child in a 17th century painting.
00:12:51.280
Like these hyper specific, like insults that they're like so adorable.
00:13:00.080
I got one the other day that truly stopped me in my tracks.
00:13:06.900
Cause I think I screenshot it just because it really hit me that hard.
00:13:09.780
But I was like, someone was like, it was a long video that I posted.
00:13:16.180
And someone was, I know this isn't the point of the video, but I just want to say like,
00:13:20.680
please, in all caps, don't ever change your teeth because they, they, they match you and
00:13:44.620
I truly was like, when I read it, I was like, yeah, um, deleted immediately.
00:13:50.880
Um, said with all the love in the world, deleted.
00:13:52.860
I had one another time where I posted, I think I forget what I posted, but it was like strapless,
00:14:01.040
And someone messaged me and said, I love your, um, obviously I love your content, big fan,
00:14:09.100
Um, because I've never seen someone who isn't, um, embarrassed of like, uh, cause I also have
00:14:16.540
really big linebacker shoulders and I, I'm so happy that you don't care about that because
00:14:29.840
This is a thought that should stay in here and should not be shared with the person that
00:14:35.260
The fans always think they're doing something when they're like, you're so brave.
00:14:37.960
Like don't, don't ever, don't ever use the adjective brave.
00:14:41.160
Hey, don't ever use that to describe me, my body, especially don't you ever use that
00:14:47.880
In an interview, I had mentioned that the one time someone said something to me that I
00:14:52.860
Um, they called me like the pot of greed, which is like, and like I, I mentioned it in
00:14:57.800
I've like made, I've told the story to make people laugh.
00:15:02.400
Some guy was talking shit on me and then I saw videos of him talking shit.
00:15:06.820
And then I saw people in the comments saying like, Oh, she looks like the pot of greed.
00:15:11.080
And then I saw someone go, when I saw a man call her pot of greed, I never looked at the
00:15:22.320
I was talking about myself and I was all, and also that insult was written to me by a
00:15:31.120
There's no way that a straight man came up with that to make fun of me.
00:15:46.460
So that's what we're going to be unpacking a lot of YouTube commentary.
00:15:52.580
This video is a popular, ultra-conservative YouTube commentator.
00:15:58.520
And responding to the TikTok China Girls posting, here's my outfit today that the men are going
00:16:03.580
And the commentator says, this is yet another way women weirdly pride themselves on being
00:16:08.700
unappealing to men and pitting the genders against each other.
00:16:13.500
And ooh, the genders, I hate when they say that.
00:16:33.040
That's your Trojan horse thing inside the world of drag race, right?
00:16:36.800
So this one, it says, men prefer women that dress like this and not like prostitutes.
00:16:45.880
It's like, go back to like the 80s, like Baywatch.
00:16:49.680
And like the 90s, the skimpy outfits, early 2000s, like the Britney Spears, the low cut
00:16:55.960
But then all of a sudden, the gender war started or whatever.
00:17:00.400
And like, there's like this weird conservative mindset where everyone's just like, no, we
00:17:07.280
It's like, no, like don't try to act like the past.
00:17:12.380
All of a sudden you're like, I want a woman who wears a long denim skirt.
00:17:16.180
I saw, I saw a tweet recently that was like, all the, they, men want women to dress like
00:17:28.200
I don't care if you want to dress like a Mennonite, but for some reason people care if I want
00:17:32.000
I feel like, and like, what is dressing like a whore?
00:17:37.440
Like it's really seen through a biblical lens whenever they deem something to be slutty
00:17:46.000
And the dress code of horse has changed over time.
00:17:54.420
This next one says, at least that's one way to get women to dress more decent by making
00:17:58.920
them think it's their idea and a way to get back at men.
00:18:01.700
I mean, like they went out to the store and bought clothes.
00:18:07.080
That's why I'm like, it's, it's truly stripping women of any autonomy at all, including thought.
00:18:13.600
They're simultaneously saying that like men don't want to see this and then saying she's
00:18:21.340
But if they don't want to see that, then what's the point?
00:18:32.220
They're like, well, I can't see your fucking tits through that thing.
00:18:45.700
This is a reminder that space for God between us at all times.
00:19:00.760
You know what's funny is the episodes that have been going live.
00:19:03.760
Sometimes I'm talking about like one, my now fiance, but I'm saying my boyfriend in the
00:19:07.860
clips and they're like, girl, that's your fiance now.
00:19:14.740
Trust me when I say I traded out that title already.
00:19:18.820
I always felt so juvenile saying boyfriend, to be honest.
00:19:21.740
It's like at an office when someone else moves in, you like take the little placard off
00:19:24.940
the door and slide in the new one and got the little fiance one.
00:19:32.700
This next one says poisonous animals are usually brightly colored to warn off how toxic they
00:19:41.100
Oh, is this like, is that like talking about, it's the woman in the video have like blue
00:19:49.120
Like, and so they're saying like, this is just like poisonous animals.
00:19:52.760
Well, see, that's also not true because snakes are poisonous too, and they're not brightly
00:20:00.680
Some of the little poisonous snakes are, well, I guess, wait, they're venomous.
00:20:05.300
Yeah, but still, but some things like kind of, there's like some poisonous frogs that
00:20:09.340
So, you know, some girls, they can be poisonous too, no matter how ordinary they are.
00:20:14.140
Some of the worst women I've ever met in my life were plain as fuck.
00:20:20.540
The snake in the grass is a phrase for a reason.
00:20:24.840
I also think too that this, well, first of all, the person who made this video, I get
00:20:31.040
compared to her a lot because she stole the name of this show and just added an S on the
00:20:36.500
So she typically talks, she talks a lot of shit about women.
00:20:39.720
She's, it's a woman actually who talks shit about women and says that when she says women
00:20:45.400
really weirdly pride themselves on being unappealing to men.
00:20:50.660
I find that strange because what's so wrong about, like, sometimes when people are like,
00:20:56.240
when men get mad at me, they'll say things like, oh, like you're just convincing women
00:21:02.360
First of all, you don't need my help with that.
00:21:04.020
Second of all, you're going to freak out when you hear about gay people.
00:21:09.660
No, you guys, you're that general on the front lines.
00:21:14.540
If you think I'm mean, you got to meet a gay person.
00:21:17.780
Girl, when I tell you, they are on ground zero.
00:21:23.560
I'm like, if you think I'm mean, then I know for a fact you don't know any gay people.
00:21:27.620
Gay people are the meanest people alive as they should be.
00:21:31.900
Like, we get along so well because I'm a cunt just like they are.
00:21:34.860
And so whenever they say this, like, oh, some people actually don't want to be desired by men.
00:21:40.900
And I feel like that thought is, like, mind-blowing to them.
00:21:46.680
Because a lot of my show is, like, interviewing people.
00:21:52.960
And everyone's like, oh, you can't trust a straight person.
00:22:02.480
I was like, that's why I've had so many, obviously, queens on the show, yourself included.
00:22:07.780
But some of the ones I've had, like, they're some of the meanest bitches alive.
00:22:15.940
So, like, and that bitch was mean as fuck to me.
00:22:24.440
Like, we really, we connect on so many levels in that way.
00:22:27.460
But I also think, too, like, when people are not trying to be appealing at all physically to men,
00:22:38.940
And they're just like, that person's dressing for me.
00:22:42.840
It's like, because she's not, she doesn't know you.
00:22:53.000
And, like, the same guys that say that don't dress for women.
00:23:05.000
It's like, but they're like, women are dressing for me.
00:23:17.680
Like, you had to be, like, dressed up really, really nice.
00:23:21.240
And so we go, and, like, I see a lot of my friends there.
00:23:24.180
But then working with someone who I know doesn't like me.
00:23:34.620
That's a lover's spat that he and I are in the middle of.
00:23:40.540
And he, for lack of a better term, stunk badly.
00:23:45.620
And I was thinking to myself, this is a man who hates me and hates everything I stand for.
00:23:56.540
And that's not the first person who's told me he stank.
00:24:01.720
And I was thinking to myself, you guys look at someone like him, like men who hate me.
00:24:05.400
They look at someone like him and someone like me, and they're like, oh, fuck her.
00:24:13.980
Why don't y'all start doing something for us, like washing your ass?
00:24:18.120
Why don't you try, I don't know, the bare minimum?
00:24:20.720
The only thing he hits more than you is antiperspirant.
00:24:24.480
Like, soap, water, anything at all to, like, get rid of.
00:24:33.800
I just know that, like, when you adjust the suit, it just kind of wafts.
00:24:40.040
And then one of my friends, I had told her that already.
00:24:42.400
And one of my friends told me after, she goes, I thought you were kidding.
00:24:49.040
It's like when you unwrap a baked potato and all the steam puffs out.
00:24:57.860
Like, it's like, actually, I actually knew you were here, because I could smell you from
00:25:04.120
And one of my friends literally described him as the stinkiest boy alive.
00:25:09.020
Like, I brought him up to her once, and she goes, oh, you mean the stinkiest boy alive?
00:25:12.460
And I go, I don't know anything about that, because at the time, I didn't.
00:25:16.640
Now I can confirm the stinkiest boy, at least that I've ever smelled alive.
00:25:26.440
And I'm like, that's a man who literally is like, oh, look at these fucking whores.
00:25:35.920
The ones that, like, stank and can't get any booty.
00:25:38.880
The ones that smell like booty can't get booty.
00:25:43.820
I never, I think the mindset, too, of like, oh, she doesn't want to sleep with me, that whore.
00:25:51.880
If she's a whore, she's bad at her job because she doesn't want to fuck you.
00:26:01.700
I get to just, like, cosplay as one for a little bit because to be one.
00:26:06.780
No, I get to wear a stinky tuxedo and everyone's just like, wow, so great.
00:26:09.960
Everyone's going to be like, oh, my God, I love it.
00:26:15.480
In this next video, another popular YouTube commentator describes itself as a history and anthropology channel.
00:26:29.320
Okay, so it's a history and anthropology channel.
00:26:33.620
Argues that most young men today agree that the feminist movement stands for active hatred towards men.
00:26:40.500
And a, quote, utopian push against the fundamental reality of the world.
00:27:04.300
And then utopian push against the fundamental reality of the world.
00:27:09.420
I love, I love when men just put a bunch of words together and they're like, well, that must be true.
00:27:31.320
We really aren't talking about utopian push against reality enough.
00:27:42.400
Can we please discuss this utopian push against reality?
00:27:50.120
More stupid bitch women need to start talking about it.
00:28:04.800
But they're saying utopian because they're fucking stupid.
00:28:08.100
I will say, though, until you pointed it out, they sounded good.
00:28:14.120
They hit me with cognitive dissonance and paradigm shift.
00:28:28.260
You have a four syllable word you didn't know before.
00:28:31.020
And all of a sudden, you know, you're Joe Rogan.
00:28:37.640
I think they meant to say dystopian, but they said utopian.
00:28:42.560
So I don't know why a perfect society would be pushing against something that is not like,
00:28:52.260
Because one time a guy made a hate video about me and he called me irreproachable,
00:28:56.520
which irreproachable means faultless and like beyond criticism.
00:29:01.320
So it's something that's like it's beyond reproach.
00:29:06.300
And I was like, I think you meant unapproachable, not irreproachable.
00:29:19.220
Would a flower by any other name be just as sweet.
00:29:23.300
And I was like, I think you meant unapproachable, not irreproachable.
00:29:28.040
And then he was like, that's besides the point.
00:29:31.700
Like you guys start just saying these big, these word salads.
00:29:34.880
And they like truly believe they're smarter than me because they've said big words in
00:29:42.600
And all of a sudden they're like, well, clearly she's an idiot.
00:29:44.660
I think this is all like a consequence of the no child left behind.
00:30:01.000
This comment says, they've all been hurt by a man at some point and I've never gotten
00:30:09.160
And also, like, I love the idea that, like, you know, something has to happen to me personally
00:30:19.940
So I've never been hate crimed by homophobic people.
00:30:23.160
But I can still wrap my head around the fact that that's awful.
00:30:28.260
So to hear women, women who have been, like, actually genuinely and violently harmed by
00:30:34.340
men, like, that's not even enough reason for them to believe them.
00:30:39.440
Like, why do you guys act like you believe victims?
00:30:51.120
I wasn't considering the utopia we currently live in.
00:31:07.680
Like, everything is, like, lumped together in the same category.
00:31:17.500
But then if I say that men, like, I'm talking about men being awful, they're like, well,
00:31:30.040
You should have hit them back in the comments, like, you're probably a capitalist.
00:31:37.060
But also, communism, like, the idea of communism and men believing that communism, that's just
00:31:43.520
another thing where they have half of a piece of something.
00:31:57.200
Imagine they're like, oh, I want to call you a slur so bad.
00:32:00.700
It's like, I don't want to say he has misogynist in the comments, so I'll call you a commie,
00:32:07.380
The, like, the gift of slurs has been taken from them, so they have to find new ways to
00:32:14.300
One time I made a shit-talking video about a stand-up comedian I do not like at all.
00:32:19.500
And, like, someone was saying, oh, you guys can't.
00:32:40.440
I was like, between which of his Netflix stand-ups?
00:32:48.380
You just, like, don't want to hear, like, hey, that's fucked up.
00:32:53.300
And even then, with that, too, like, all that bigotry within stand-up comedy, and they're
00:32:59.420
I've even told people, too, I'm like, have you guys ever, you guys don't give marginalized
00:33:04.560
Because some of us have heard jokes like that before, believe it or not.
00:33:10.060
Like, you think I've never heard a, like, I'm going to beat this shit out of a woman
00:33:18.860
But, like, they're like, oh, you're probably just offended.
00:33:24.800
It's just, like, it's also, like, give me a little fucking credit.
00:33:27.780
That's why drag queens, too, are, like, masters of hearing, like, of hearing hateful shit and
00:33:33.840
still being able to be like, okay, my turn to joke about you.
00:33:40.320
I feel like I was, like, been going crazy, like, like, watching stand-up stuff.
00:33:44.320
Because, like, all stand-up is just, like, so unfunny.
00:33:47.720
Like, all the stand-up clips I see online, like, watching, like, all, like, the Kill
00:33:54.700
And, like, half of them walk up and they're opening online and they're like, y'all ever notice
00:33:59.340
that Mexican people are, like, so, like, trans people.
00:34:09.500
And you know what's crazy, too, is when people do make jokes at the expense of other, of
00:34:20.600
It's just, like, you're talking about us so much.
00:34:25.360
It's just, it's another one of those you can never win.
00:34:27.960
It's, like, you love to tell jokes, but you can't take them.
00:34:32.180
You think trans people aren't used to being joked about?
00:34:34.680
You think gay people aren't used to being joked about?
00:34:36.860
But if you're going to do it, you should do it well.
00:34:40.080
I think because they sat around, like, the lunchroom in high school making jokes about
00:34:43.240
trans people, they're like, and their friends laughed.
00:34:52.380
They tell one fat joke, and they're like, I should quit my job.
00:35:00.480
That's, like, one of the most commonly asked questions I get in interviews is, like, if I've ever gotten
00:35:06.280
anything that really stuck with me, which is why the pot of greed thing has been in many of my
00:35:10.040
interviews, because it's the only one I've ever gotten.
00:35:18.080
Like, that's, it's a variation of fat and ugly.
00:35:21.160
But when I tell someone that they look like they sell knives door to door, all of a sudden
00:35:30.900
Like, I don't understand what the fucking problem is now that we were having fun.
00:35:35.000
Well, they also, like, don't like whenever they get outmatched in a battle of wits.
00:35:40.620
Like, in their leg, in the comment, they're like, you are overweight.
00:35:43.520
I mean, they're like, I think they did something, like, click.
00:35:50.960
And they always say, and they almost always especially say it to women, I feel like,
00:35:57.560
So they're like, oh, well, that's the meanest thing you could ever say is call someone undesirable.
00:36:01.840
Like, a woman say, like, I would never fuck you.
00:36:12.980
So we didn't have to address the awkwardness later.
00:36:17.480
I responded to someone when he's like, I would never fuck this woman, some shit like that.
00:36:20.960
And I said, okay, well, thank God, because look at you.
00:36:25.900
The guy who looks like the little dinosaur from Barney doesn't want to fuck me.
00:36:34.260
They're all, like, midsummer on the floor crying together because they lost a prime alpha specimen.
00:36:45.100
And I've said that before, like, that attitude of, like, I don't, like, of these kinds of misogynistic men online.
00:36:50.600
They're, like, I don't want to fuck you, but I can't believe you don't want to fuck me.
00:36:56.820
It's the goal of people thinking they're a catch, but without being able to say, like, what they offer to the table.
00:37:02.520
Because it's, like, you don't have, like, the best looks.
00:37:12.060
It's, like, they're, like, why do women not like me?
00:37:14.680
It's, like, well, for one, you don't like women.
00:37:20.920
Let's get to the head of the snake and work, you know.
00:37:23.280
Let's start from the top and work all the way down.
00:37:25.600
Even when I've talked to men who, like, believe that they are, like, very good looking for whatever fucking reason, right?
00:37:34.800
But I've even told them, I'm, like, if you allegedly look wonderful and you're tall and you're in shape and you have a lot of money and you still can't get a bitch, the list is actually a lot shorter than it's you.
00:37:51.300
It's everything you can't see, which is the essence of you.
00:37:59.040
I've said that to a man before, and he spun the fuck out.
00:38:04.920
You called me a fat, ugly bitch on the internet.
00:38:07.360
And he hit you with, like, the Yu-Gi-Oh trap car.
00:38:18.500
I thought you went to Yu-Gi-Oh duel right there.
00:38:29.420
In life, just when in doubt, you know, Second Amendment right.
00:38:44.720
This last comment says, calorie reduction, proper diet, some physical fitness solves 90% of their problems.
00:39:07.680
I will say, I did not expect someone like that to be able to spell reduction.
00:39:21.280
The shirtless guy with Oakley sunglasses and like a hat.
00:39:29.080
They can never take a picture to save their life.
00:39:37.180
But then they're in like my inbox with little wave emojis.
00:39:50.300
Like whenever I was like doing like drag in Arkansas and everything.
00:40:12.440
And I'm not one of those people that says like.
00:40:53.500
Especially because I have a lot of friends who are dolls too.
00:41:11.740
That is why they act that way towards people like us.
00:41:14.760
And that's why they secretly hit up people like my friends.
00:41:17.760
Because they are so entrapped by their toxic masculinity.
00:41:56.020
They want an attractive woman to show off to like.
00:42:07.680
If they weren't worried about what their guy friends would say.
00:42:29.540
They are constantly trying to have sex with fat women.
00:43:00.120
Stop worrying about what other guys are thinking of you.
00:43:24.920
That smells a guy walking by dressed in full camo.
00:43:54.620
This extremely limiting idea they have of masculinity.
00:44:00.840
There are so many men who don't fall into those umbrellas.
00:44:16.960
You know how many men who don't look like what they perceive to be a man.
00:44:22.400
And they are fighting the bitches off with a stick.
00:44:32.240
You would be shocked how many women would be like.
00:44:37.660
They're like trying to figure out the secret of women.
00:44:56.580
When you and your fiance are out at the bar poaching together.
00:45:09.520
You got people going home Googling where is Polynesia.
00:45:18.200
She was like saying she was going to go to Samoa to find someone who looks like my man.
00:45:23.240
And I was like well Jason Momoa is not Samoan so you won't find him there.
00:45:39.340
I feel like yeah like you said it's it's it's actually so.
00:45:43.200
And that's going to lead me to my next question for you.
00:45:47.400
It's like once you free yourself from this idea that you have to appeal to men constantly.
00:45:55.020
Like first of all the world opens up to you just in terms of opportunity.
00:45:58.080
I mean look what you're doing now which is incredible.
00:45:59.680
And it is an art form which I think is fantastic that you're pursuing it so openly.
00:46:09.140
Sincerely take compliments as a fucking sunflower.
00:46:15.220
So it's a real roller coaster ride on my episode.
00:46:30.800
But I do want to commend you for being so open and honest about that because I feel
00:46:35.540
like it's so important that cis straight men too also talk about this stuff.
00:46:44.500
So I'm curious like what would you say is like your best piece of advice for men who
00:46:49.900
are maybe like on the fence or maybe they're like I want to pursue this but I don't want
00:46:57.140
Like have you ever seen straight men do makeup?
00:47:00.380
And they're just doing a little cover up or whatever.
00:47:02.360
Like you know anything outside of what is perceived to be masculine pursuing that kind
00:47:09.120
What would you say is your best piece of advice for men who are like maybe struggling
00:47:16.300
I think like it's really morbid but like a big thing that opened my eyes was like having
00:47:23.220
like some deaths in the family or something and then going to like funerals and like seeing
00:47:29.440
And each one of those people is like someone that lived like a full life.
00:47:33.480
Probably like so many regrets and stuff they didn't do.
00:47:35.480
And it's like why are you like you get one chance of this.
00:47:41.260
I think all these people you're worried about like what they're going to think of you.
00:47:47.760
Especially like with things of like with women and stuff.
00:47:51.760
Like why do you care about what some random guy thinks about your interactions with women?
00:48:00.560
Why are you going to like literally just live for yourself?
00:48:08.820
And you might be thinking like oh I'm not going to get a bunch of like tattoos and dye
00:48:12.140
my hair blue because then I'll only attract goth girls that I'm not into.
00:48:15.960
Which first of all you're sleeping on goth girls.
00:48:20.280
But second of like again like me in drag going out or being out of drag and people knowing
00:48:26.160
There's like a lot of like those like hometown small town conservative girls little you know
00:48:31.060
Pentecostal girls that are messaging me and like flirting with me too.
00:48:36.700
You'll get yourself a wholesome girl like if you're if you really it's because it has
00:48:41.160
nothing to do with like it has nothing to do with the interests that you have or the
00:48:45.340
career really it's like it's what's attractive about it is the fact that you're so confident
00:48:52.020
Like they women really love men who obviously see them as humans say that but when they're
00:48:56.640
confident in their misogyny all of a sudden it's a problem.
00:48:58.720
So I'm a hypocrite so I do like to talk out of both sides of my mouth.
00:49:12.660
But I do think that your confidence in what you like and what you want to pursue is what
00:49:32.180
Like I said I grew up in a really small town and like I always had the mindset of like
00:49:37.000
I don't want to rock the boat or anything but the moment I graduate I'm going to go
00:49:47.160
And I just looked back and I was like damn I really wasted like 18, 19 years of my life.
00:50:00.980
Especially if the gift, what you get in return for letting that go is like worth its weight
00:50:08.000
It feels like this weird like cloud that was like over me that I feel like it's gone or
00:50:12.400
like I feel like people are always like watching me and like judging my actions and who I'm
00:50:18.600
But once you like stop caring about that like it's like oh those people literally don't
00:50:24.220
That's another thing too you need to realize is like people don't actually care.
00:50:26.980
Outside of like some random commenter on Facebook or YouTube or whatever like people do not
00:50:38.760
And even if it's not, that's none of my business.
00:50:40.960
Like I always think like what you think about me is none of my business.
00:50:44.140
Like if you're not in my inner circle and I don't see you every day and I don't have to
00:50:48.580
When people have asked me about like oh how do you deal with this much hate or like men hating
00:50:52.700
you online or whatever, I always tell them like the same thing kind of where I'm like
00:50:56.600
this sounds kind of morbid, but I'm like if those people drop dead tomorrow, like my
00:51:00.660
life would continue and my life would be awesome.
00:51:08.400
But I'm like I don't care about their livelihood.
00:51:14.780
Like and it's like if someone doesn't have the life you want, would you take advice from
00:51:23.040
You don't have any goals that I've ever wanted.
00:51:26.000
Why am I going to take anything you say seriously as far as opinions on my life?
00:51:30.800
It's like the old adage like sticks and stones can break my bones, but I have a fucking
00:51:33.920
But I have a gun, but I am going to pull a gun on you.
00:51:36.380
So thank you so much for coming on this show today.
00:51:43.700
And I do like genuinely, I want to commend you for like being so open and honest about
00:51:51.860
And I feel like as a straight cis person to you and me in it together, you know, a straight
00:52:08.060
Don't judge a cis straight person until you walked a mile in their sketchers.
00:52:13.400
You got to walk a mile in my fucking a six before you start talking about my hokas.
00:52:17.940
Just because someone is dressed like an old Navy mannequin doesn't mean they don't have
00:52:32.180
And I think you get best costume award already.
00:52:56.980
