the contest has nothing to do with drag queens or drag as a culture or art. none of the themes require or even encourage you to dress up like a drag queen, the winners are always just bimbo avatars wearing your average high-feminine outfit (not to shit on any of the winners, but there's nothing drag about them). there's practically no presence of drag or drag elements on this site and the name is incredibly out of place.

i know it wasn't always called this so i feel like team bimbo just changed the name because it sounds cool and drag has gotten popular among straight people nowadays. it almost feels like appropriation.
NB here. I've thought about that a lot. Even if it was about the art of drag, it's mostly bimbos that enter and that makes it a faux-queen thing. Def picking up what you're putting down
tbh i would be fine even if it was just bimbos? i think anyone can do drag of any gender, but its about performing and greatly exaggerating gender roles and creating a persona. like you cant just put on a dress and makeup and call it drag.
yea thats always been something thats... been on my mind. like its just not that, this isn't drag, its just fashion contests lol. idk it could definitely use a different name but i have no ideas atm :/

I mean, the name doesn't have to be spectacularly creative. Could easily just be changed to the BQFC (Beauty Queen Fashion Contest).

Or just "Monthly fashion contest". Or hell, just name it according to the theme (like "Valentine day ball").

Also reminder that Team Bimbo still continues to ignore us and refuses to provide any answers.

Monthly Bimbo Pageant is also and option. Or if we don't wanna be total di#ckwads we could even call it Monthly Ximbo Pageant , as a way to be inclusive. But being inclusive is boring and fake so I guess not, huh.

Agree with the points made about the DQFC name, unfairness of the DQFC voting system, and the term bimbo suicide for account deletion. All of these points have been brought up in the past and, as usual, our concerns were and continue to be ignored by management. :(

What are the odds he doubles down on making poor choices instead of hiring qualified people that can help make the site better like he apparently did for Miss Bimbo? 

Seriously for someone so into the Commonwealth Of Nations that wants to be inclusive and run his charity through his cafes and shit he really does act like a dick to people here. I wonder the community here is just a way for him to fantasize degrading people he thinks are worth less than he is or finds stupid. Like I get it, he did just become a dad, and he does have his actual IRL businesses, but at least hire people for here to keep the site in order while you do things. Not that he cares since sole shareholder of Blighty Ltd., meaning that as far as he's concerned he can do whatever he wants. IIRC the shares were a penny when he allotted them initially so I wonder if I could offer to buy 49 shares in exchange for LETTING SOMETHING GOOD HAPPEN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
