I am not familiar with all the talent shown, but are they transvestites or are they transgendered and/or are they gay? It's not like all these things go hand in hand 100% of the time.

Like Dame Edna is a straight man in a dress just for comedy reasons. Eddie Izzard is a transvestite - a straight male who feels more comfortable in women's clothing which he uses for his act. RuPaul is a drag queen - a gay man dressing as a woman for entertainment - no intention of ever being a woman. Model Lea T. is a transexual -a woman full time. I hate seeing all these types being lumped together as the same thing.

So are these talento shown gay men or straight men out of character? Or are they transgendered? Just want to know for the sake of this convo...
