Guest SKIPERDEE11572384485 Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 are the members here and the mods so intolerant that we cannot say "drag queen"? I am really shocked that this would be an issue. We very likely may have some members here who may be a "drag queen", are we going to censure them for who they are?
Auntievern Posted October 8, 2011 Posted October 8, 2011 We did rec. complaints over the way in which the term drag queen was used in a recent thread. While there is nothing wrong with the word in general, in this particular instance, people complained about its use to describe something "ugly" or "trashy". Words can hurt and in an effort to maintain a postive atmosphere on the board, the post was edited to remove the word which was percieved to be used in a negative context. No offense was meant to the original poster or to any on the board who may be drag queens. --Veronica -- Veronica / AuntieVern ~ Member Moderator
