It's why, no matter how popular it become, drag will never become "mainstream," because it's an intensely personal, individual, political and rebellious act to declare that person everyone sees is wrong and persona that you feel is right.

Sailor Moon, originally released in Japan as Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon (, Bishjo Senshi Sr Mn), and later as Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, is an anime series adapted from the manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Naoko Takeuchi. You can find her on Twitter and you YouTube where you can see her singing Do it for Her from Steven Universe.įor my recommendation this week, check out another Steven Universe song: Giant Woman.
