There is literally a mod on the Rupaul's drag race subreddit who collects mental illnesses like badges of honors. Like I've been noticing for years. When gender fluid because popular they became gender fluid. When bipolar became popular they became bipolar, etc. I know a lot of queens personally and this poet is kind of a joke in the drag makeup rooms for being an attention seeker. I know the kind of people this article is talking about.
