black women invented the over the top, boisterous, ultra femme, glitzy, big voiced, big haired diva.

WHITE GAY APPROPRIATION OF BLACK FEMALE IDENTITIES
DRIVES
ME
NUTS
You guys, you can appreciate Beyonce or Diana Ross or Tina Turner or Whitney Houston as much as you want, I love the hell out of all of their work (although Beyonce especially has problematic stuff happening) and consider them vitally important to queers in certain specific contexts, but that doesn’t mean that they belong to me or that their styles and presentations and ways of being belong to me.
If I hear one more white gay guy pull out “OH NO YOU DI’NT” or “GURL” in what is essentially a minstrel show parody of a black woman’s voice, I am going to lose it
