I've never been keen on drag acts.
I've not seen much of 'Divine',
Lilly Savage is sufficiently 'rude' to be funny (for a while).

What was rude was brother Fred & Rob Lowe trying to be funny, & now making us pay for the DVD, after Rob quit "Parks & Rec" telling people he was leaving TV for a while!

Only association I get from that is the word 'rude' - and when I read that, I thought of Rodney Rude, a fucking filthy but very funny comedian in Australia in 1980s - 1990's.

Back in the Day, I figured THIS MAN was pretty funny - and rude.

PS. in considering a Drag Act, I think we must not forget the excellent Danny la Rue.

All I get out of that is some not-really-existent/IDed person in my head asking, "Paper where?". Meant nothing for a bit, until I recalled another old song my sib & I grew up with:

This one. (Not same artist)

I've never left North America, & I can only recall using spoken language when I went to Canada roughly a decade ago (reminds me of the "Lost In Canada" lyric, "Will someone be offended if I order French fries?", which seems a bit outdated now)...

However, I do recall my Senior English teacher (also the main Coach of the school's Speech-&-Debate team, & "Faculty Advisor" for the school paper) spending a ton of time on nonverbal communication, & mentioning you couldn't give people a "peace" sign in a bunch of countries (don't recall him specifying) without them getting very angry at you. (Think I even mentioned it in a CHYOO thread many years ago.)

reverse peace signs are the problem...

reverse peace signs are the problem...

The problem with anything is what you make it, & vice-versa.

If I make a peace sign in front of my own face now due to reading about it, that's what I know it as, & I know reading about it is why I'm making it. (I'm the only one here, so it means nothing to anyone else, & probably wouldn't matter to me if it did.)

If I turn/"reverse" it, all I'm seeing is the back of my own fingers (which I of course recognize from any side), & I know why I am seeing it/them.

So there is NOTHING that "is the problem" to the audience (of 1) that is seeing it.

I stated facts. That description fits your crap about what "are (really) the problem" after I (again) stated factual memories/observations to answer someone else's question.
