Blasted by activists for using the terms ‘she-mail’ and ‘she-male,’ the producers of RuPaul’s Drag Race have apologized for causing offence. But the drag superstar should stop using the word ‘tranny’ too.
Earlier today, Logo TV released a statement regarding popular reality series RuPaul’s Drag Race, in which they apologized for use of the word “she-male”—a transphobic slur—during a recent episode, and made it clear that the word will not be used in any of the show’s future episodes.
