drag queen is a man
a drag queen is by definition a man, thus it was a 'HE' that splashed hot coffee in the face of the cop causing the riot...not a she. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.154.231 (talk) 20:57, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
Did the person in question identify as a drag queen, or as a transwoman? Remembering that at the time, the common terms for transwomen were transvestite (regardless of identity) or drag queen, the terms as used now may not mean the same thing. Simply put, if the person who splashed the coffee identified as female, then "she" is the proper pronoun. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ypsiroselee (talk • contribs) 04:38, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

"As it well should be"? Why should the event be forgotten? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.180.124.59 (talk) 18:45, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
