It's nice to see them talk about something more than gay men and transwomen. Some the comments at the bottom are less than grand but it was interesting, IMO, at the historical look.

I agree, it is nice to see that subject talked about. I've seen a one or two drag king shows, but not often, as I seldom go to clubs anymore.

I like to see drag kings getting recognition too. Don't get me wrong, I like the queens but there's too much focus on them in my opinion. There needs to be more balance.

Pete Sake's video really touched my heart.

Loved Valentino King and All The King's Men.
