Because being miserable about the size of your tits is, like, expected when you're a teenage girl, but a dude who dresses up like women being miserable about his tits seems kinda silly.
So I'm reading this post, and I see Althouse say this:
"The female performance was much more successful than what I would guess Sanders prefers — showing himself as a nonconforming male."
And last night she said this:
"That said, Vox deserved to be in the bottom 3. Virtel ranked her 9th, and she chose to sing "Circle of Life."
So I wrote this: 'Which sounds reasonable, but I'm not quite sure how you introduce yourself to someone by saying 'should I call you a dude or a chick?', without sounding like you're trying to be a dick.</a>
So, today he's a 'himself,' while yesterday he was a 'her' and a 'she' and shit.
Which kinda goes to the point I wrote in the link: the guidelines for figuring out pronouns and shit now is way fucked up.
So I'm thinking maybe what I wrote influenced Althouse's pronoun decision today, but then I figure that can't be it, I'm not even sure what I said and I wrote it.
But then I read that Althouse says Aiken, the gay dude, is "presenting himself forthrightly as as a nontraditional male" and Althouse's guess on Vox is that Vox would prefer to just be a nontraditional male, but after twelve times failing like that he, like, went with the drag thing and shit.
So I kinda sense that, like, Althouse cooled off on him overnight. And I'm thinking this is because she is seeing him as a bit of a phony: that the drag thing was a gimmick, not a strongly-felt thing in his life. And maybe I see that shit, too, but then it gets into trying to judge the intent of a drag queen's heart and shit, and that's getting pretty complicated for me, I have enough trouble with, like, figuring out straight chicks.
But can someone be a drag queen for the wrong reasons? Like, if they just do it once in a while and are happy and shit then they're not really authentic, but if they are miserable and getting plastic surgery and shit then they're, like, the real thing? Because being miserable about the size of your tits is, like, expected when you're a teenage girl, but a dude who dresses up like women being miserable about his tits seems kinda silly.
Because if someone can be a drag queen for the wrong reasons then can someone be gay for the wrong reasons? Because I'm not sure how that would work, but I understand a lot of the gay dudes don't like the bisexual dudes because they think they're really gay, that they're just not being gay the right way and shit.
And then there are gay dudes who pretend to be straight, then come out after they've, like, been married and had kids and shit, and that seems like a wrong way to have been straight, because the wife chick is, like, what the fuck, dude? Really? You couldn't have figured this out beforehand?
So I'm pretty confused on what pronouns to use and who gets to use them. I think the easiest one for me to remember is that Cher's daughter is a 'he', and if I had a time machine and had to go back to the Seventies to try to explain this to people about little Chastity I think people would figure I was on drugs and shit.
