A mixed and mixed up community
Are gay and lesbian film festivals still necessary in 2008? I attended one recently and was struck by the incredible diversity of the opening night audience.
We were a motley bunch of all races, colours, shapes, sizes and persuasions. An elegantly put together air hostess stood out in her powder blue 50s outfit, topped with a jaunty pillbox hat. What was really striking about her was her height – at 1.85 metres she would stand taller than most overhead compartments (actually most planes) and struggle to offer us “chicken or beef”.
So yes, the drag contingent was there, some intentional, while others just adopted a hit or miss approach to gender presentation. I spotted a trans man of my acquaintance and he’s looking amazingly butch right now – I swear I want some of those testosterone shots he’s been getting.
