Now, if Existentialist explores the meaninglessness of existence, (I talked about Existentialism yesterday) I would propose that drag culture celebrates our existence in every form and every nuance. Both Existentialism and Drag Culture force us to explore and critique society’s values, but wheres Existentialists are rather sullen about their conclusions, drag culture encourages us to celebrate who we are regardless of what society tells us or who society expects us to be.

Last night, my daughter and I attended Bing-Ho, or bingo with drag performers as hosts and entertainers, at Lost Tavern Brewing in Hellertown, Pa. I met Nichole Stevens (one of the drag hosts), many many moons ago before she was “born.” My daughter and I have wanted to see Nichole perform for ages. Last night did not disappoint. We did not win any Bing-Ho prizes, but we did enjoy ourselves and eat food from a taco truck. Win!
