this is DRAG actually.

this is it actually. - A podcast by jeni b.

drag began back during shakespeare times, around the end of the 16th century.  at the time, the church was super connected to the stage and would only allow men to perform - like honestly, what IS that… ugh, anyway, that’s how the female roles ended up being played by men dressed as women. the word ‘drag’ itself is believed to have been born in the theatre too. the dresses that the men wore to play the female characters would drag along the floor. and so it goes. i've been taking my girls to drag shows since they were wee things & sure, it's always insanely fun, a little raucous & sometimes inappropriate - but the same message emerges almost every time. BE who you are & LOVE all.  with special guests: @lalaluzious & @jemmdoshay from @hausofdevereaux.  x. follow the podcast on instagram: @thisisitactually follow me & the podcast on twitter: @jenibesworth
