Yes, we agree that Drag Day should not be held at GSSM.

Although it seems like harmless fun, the comic nature of the day trivializes the difficulties of those who do not conform to the gender they were assigned to at birth by society. These members of the LGBTQ+ community already have to deal with social and familial stigmas and dissaproval, and this makes Drag Day a powerful reminder of the negative opinion towards them in society.

Because we want GSSM to be open and welcoming to all students, we believe Drag Day should not be held.
