changing people's perseptions

[SaraLin]

I have a friend who makes fake puking noises whenever he sees a drag queen or crossdresser on TV. It's always irritated me, and I've always wanted to say something, but there is no way of knowing how people will react.

I tend to be quiet is group settings (I'm the wallflower type), but if I was with a 'friend' like this, I think I'd have to give a loud sigh and say "Oh, grow up already!" -or something such.


I have found myself saying something like "OK - so what? What harm is it doing us, and why should we care?" but it's rare.

Like I said, I mostly keep quiet.
