You See? You See?

Oh, you all pooh-poohed me. When I was driven to fist-clenching by his grating voice, his obnoxious behavior and his constant, constant, CONSTANT trilling of "That's fierce!" you all laughed at me. You laughed! I said he was a privileged, spoiled, offensive little brat, and everyone cooed "But his clothes are so beautiful!"

Well, who's laughing now? Ah-ha-ha!

Christian Siriano: If you think of heterosexuals, they have white-trash women and trailer parks, and we have drag queens and trannies. I don’t know if I’m the one who can explain it. It’s, like, drag queens are just there. These answers are hard!

Wow, sexist, classist, racist and transphobic. This is the bozo that Time Out New York decides to quiz regarding gay "culture," as if he'd know culture if it fell out of the sky, landed in his lap, and did the chicken dance. (Seeing him in the company of the other LGBTQ activists in that panel is frankly embarrassing.) This is a guy that thinks "Too Wong Foo" is, ahem, fabulous. Blech. I'm amazed he was able to keep himself from saying "fierce," it's his catchphrase, after all!

And please, spare me the "he's only 23" stuff. I was an asshole when I was in my early 20's and I would never consider calling drag queens and trans people "trash." Not all people in their 20's are this repugnant. If it weren't for the fucking drag queens on Christopher Street, you wouldn't have your sweet little five minutes of fame, Christian. (Tick, tick, by the way.) I love how when asked an interesting question of actual substance:

Why do we all seem to end up in our own little niches in the city—the leather queens over here, the gay Asians over there, the lesbians on the other side, etc.?

He has nothing to say. Literally; it's the only question he didn't answer. I guess he couldn't work in a way to call someone a "tranny mess." Wow, color me shocked. In fierce pink.

Forgive me, Shakers, I just have to indulge in this little bit of schadenfreude. Nothing pisses off this queer like gay men that happily exploit the freedom given to them by the most marginalized members of our community while trashing those same people. And I hate it when people use "tranny" as an insult or mocking adjective. Let's face it, his clothes had Drag Queen written all over them; they'll be paying his salary in the future, if he's lucky.

And I still say everything he made was the same damn outfit.
