He said on the third day of his transition that he has already turned into a bimbo.

A non transgender would be in hot water if they did similar stuff.
Personally I’m not into drag shows or drag queens, and I can’t speak for all of them if any.

Anyone in the lgbtq+ space should be offended by Dylan's antics (and cancel him I suppose?)
Walking and chewing gum at the same time -

Although Biden needs to be more vocal and explanatory on the economy and the border.

A different twist. Also, compared to her desire to be a tour guide, her being a drag queen is secondary.

Charleston data,.

I'm surprised you would present a drag queen as a tourist attraction for Charleston.

I have never heard of people driving hours to Charleston or another city for a tour led by a drag queen.

I assume you want to market Charleston as weird like Asheville, Austin and Portland do.

Charleston makes National Geographic’s ‘Best of the World’ list for 2023

“The list is themed around travel destinations and experiences which the magazine said: ‘leverages the benefits of tourism to strengthen their local communities, natural and built environments, and sense of place.’

“Charleston is featured under the ‘culture’ category among the likes of Appian Way, Italy; Busan, South Korea; Longmen Grottoes, Henan Province, China; and Egypt.”

I have no problem with drag queens. She’s a hit. She’s probably also a hoot. And I’m not the one who has attempted to paint Charleston as a tired old been there done that destination with everything about it restrained by an old school way of telling the city’s story.

This statement in on the linked website:

"This event is rated *R for mature content. All guests must be 21+."

"Looking for a more PG-13 experience? Check out our original Dessert with Death."

Who could have seen that discrepancy coming? I wonder if xe has mature content for Charleston history tours as well. I'd rather get the PG 13 version of slavery and Civil war history.

Trent Hawk, chairman of the 2022 Fall for Greenville Board of Trustees, said it may have been the biggest crowd yet.

“Typically, on a normal festival year, we plan for 150,000 people over the course of three days,” explained Hawk. “I think we were probably on the high end of that, maybe close to 180,000 or 200,000 if we’re really lucky.”

That’s you. I’m not surprised. Charleston is an inclusive city with variety, something for everyone, the family-obsessed, the raunchy, and the middle of the road. It’s all good.
