Why is There a Sudden Epidemic of Transgenderism? The answer, of course, is that it’s not sudden. Bishop Patrick Wooten claims that Tyler Perry used his alter ego, Madea, to normalize men wearing dresses and making drag more acceptable in the Black community through comedy and religion.
I concur with this assessment, but it wasn’t only Tyler Perry doing this.
– The Kinks came out w/ “Lola” in 1970, a song about a romantic encounter between a young man and a possible cross-dresser or transsexual woman.
– Lou Reed released “Walk on the Wild Side” in 1972, which features five “Andy Warhol superstars”: real-life transsexuals Holly Woodlawn (born Juana Diaz) and Candy Darling (born James Lawrence Slattery); homosexual sex symbol Joe Dallesandro; drag queen Jackie Curtis; and Harvey Milk’s former boyfriend, Joe Campbell (referenced in the song as “Sugar Plum Fairy,” the title of his character in the 1965 film “My Hustler”).
– “Rocky Horror Picture Show” featuring Tim Rice as “a sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania” has been a cult classic since 1975.
– From 1980-82, Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari were “Bosom Buddies” who dressed in drag in order to live in an all-female hotel (reprising the 1959 Jack Lemmon/Tony Curtis “Some Like It Hot” premise of two men dressing in drag to hide out from the mob in an all-girl band).
– John Lithgow played a transsexual in John Irving’s “The World According to Garp” starring Robin Williams in the title role in 1982.
– Robin himself was “Mrs Doubtfire” in 1993, playing a divorced man who dresses in drag in order to take a job as his children’s nanny.
– Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze, and John Leguizamo played drag queens in 1995’s “To Wong Foo, Thanks For Everything! Julie Newmar.”
I could go on, but you get the idea:
this has been a decades-long psyop.
Hell, Milton “Uncle Miltie” Berle was wearing a dress on TV in the 50s. Back then, however, the jarring disconnect between the projection and the reality was seen as comedic. Today, to even declare that there’s a disconnect will rain hate down upon your head; and that’s tragedy, not comedy.

Ecclesiastes 1:9
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.
It’s been a freak show forever, but…It seems to be escalating👺
I agree that Hollywood has been trying to normalize this forever.
Where I disagree is with some of the projections cited as examples. Robin Williams in Ms. Doubtfire was a man trying to be a woman. It was a man going to extreme lengths to spend time with his kids. At no point was there any insiuation or confusion that Williams was a man playing a character. That’s different and I would cite Shakesperian plays where men played all the roles as going back much further. No one thinks that led to transgenderism. The sympathetic, likable cross dressing characters are.
Madea is in the same boat as Ms. Doubtfire. Perry is playing a character, who isn’t a man in any sense. She’s a big, black woman and Perry is just the actor playing the character. Like Eddie Murphy in the Nutty Professor when he plays the whole family.
Let’s not confuse comedy with attempts to push transgenderism. By your definition, so is Bugs Bunny. The comedy lies in the absurdity of the clear deceit.
Williams was NOT trying to actually be a woman, I meant to say.
