The Merkin has never been the most respected accessory. Partly because it's difficult to know how to store (do you hang it? Box it? Put it on a styrofoam...ummm...)
"The pubic wig has also become an essential piece of the serious drag queens wardrobe, as it covers the genitalia that are otherwise the epitome of maleness. It is the finishing feminine touch and it is intrinsic to the pleasure of drag, as 'a little female finery creates the sexual identity in the 'role play' of the subject. "
At no point in time has my bag of - drag essentials contained a merkin. Intrinsic to the pleasure of drag? Umm, no. One more thing to worry about falling off or showing? No thanks.
Hey! That's what happened to my merkin! The expression on it's face is due to seperation anxiety, for obvious reasons....
ReplyDeleteSeriously Vanilla, you need a merkin with a better disposition!
ReplyDeletemerkin? nasty!

Exactly how many 'merkin needs' can there possibly be?
ReplyDeleteThe quote that freaks me out is:

I can really only think of one potential merkin need, and it ain't pretty.
ReplyDeleteI agree, a merkin hardly seems "essential" to drag, let alone even remotely desireable.
ReplyDeleteI see enough boobs fall down and wigs fly off, I don't want to see somebody's merkin swinging under their hemline.
