I hope you didn't just send a drag for bonus points and to be politically correct. I might've just understood the sentence or context wrong, but how is sending a drag queen politically correct?

I understand why tbh. "Because everyone deserves a chance to participate" blah blah blah. *ahem* Dana International, Conchita, etc... However I don't believe there's a problem with sending a drag :/

Drag Queen =/= Transsexual

Is it okay if I say a drag queen is basically just a male entertainer playing a made-up female character? They don't care if they're addressed as "he" or "she". I feel like that's the best way I can put it.

I might've just understood the sentence or context wrong, but how is sending a drag queen politically correct? I brought the case because about .5 % of people in USA are trans, and are over represented ( I have nothing against LGBT btw). I know many times they are sent just because they are trans. Some people will give extra points to the trans but give less to non-LGBT. I hope everyone is unbias and gives everyone the oppurtunity including the "Privileged" , and non-minorities. - Thanks for listening, Dona Are you for serious?!

In case trans would = drag, Dona would have a point. I know Dana International was sent to ESC just because she was assigned male at birth, and not for any other reason. Dona thinks they're sent as a gimmick, and is absolutely right. Rise Like A Phoenix would obviously flop in the semis if Tom Neuwirth would sing it out of character. And MaRtIn's "unpopular" way of seeing drag queens is correct in my opinion. You don't need to be politically correct 100% of the time, people. Acknowledge the fact that both transgender, transsexuals and drag queens are gimmicks, and are sent to get points. However, the entry is fine, and was probably sent due to liking the song, or hoping it would do well regardless of her gender.
