Drag shows then seem different to drag shows now.
The joke is that is it men in drag. It's funny. I dressed as a woman on a rugby trip and got voted as best girl on tour. It was a funny humourous thing. In the way man play the evil ugly woman in a panto. "Lol jokes. That "woman" is so ugly she sounds and looks like a man."
Drag shows where the drag part of it is normalised. That ruins the entire original premise. That why it is entirely different.
It's the difference between a comedian playing a character that pretends to be disabled (the joke being the audience knows they aren't disabled and they are just lazy. The other characters do not). Verses an actor pretending to be disabled in a drama.
Same thing but entirely different.
