This type of essay is more relevant if you're trying to absorb prior generations' lives and culture.
If you don't know any older gay men, you probably won't "get" why Judy Garland or other divas were part of the lGbt psyche. Or why brunch and SHOWTUNES were just something everybody who had a dollar DID on Sunday ;)

Being 16 however, does NOT excuse your laziness in just developing a shallow rant-y view of RuPaul based on the one stupid television show that you just discovered. Prolifetip: It's always GOOD to RESEARCH something/somebody before you rant. ESPECIALLY if it's about a person or their character or life achievements. You were being dismissed because you really don't know what the fuck you're talking about; regardless of your age. Let's start with RuPaul making it crystal clear that it's the OLYMPICS of drag and he's giving you an OPPORTUNITY to make something out of "what you're working with", not a handholding surrogate parent experience. Albeit some would say they got THAT, too. ;)

Yes in a way you're "lucky" to miss the drama from before. But in a way you're unlucky. There was an intricate tapestry of culture and the passing down of experiences and life coaching that went on, something like the Masonic fraternity that will be more and more insignificant but not REPLACED by anyone or any THING. So basically you're on your own right now. Grindr will NEVER be a substitute for real life. I encourage you to get OUT and meet people of various generations and experiences/interests even if you "think" you "hate Broadway" or whatever. So you don't end up being just another Millennial anon searching for something REAL on the fucking internet. The reality IS equality is NOT HERE YET and it's never fun being a struggling subculture with no culture. You'll notice the most fulfilled and well rounded queens are those with a well rounded social circle like Bianca, Ben, Jinx, Raja (to an extent) who have other interests and various types of friends. :)
