People have issue with drag queen on TV cooking show due to their unfamiliarity with drag culture.

On Wednesday night, Cheryl Hole became the third drag queen to appear on Celebrity MasterChef. Baga Chipz and Kitty Scott-Claus were the first two to take part, and both of them had a great experience on the show with no drama or controversies.

However, Cheryl's appearance provoked an uproar on social media. Bigots took to Twitter to express their outrage at the presence of a drag queen on the show, and the criticism she faced was unacceptable. Her drag name, a clever play on Cheryl Cole, was met with hostility, with some accusing her of being offensive to women.

But the truth is that Cheryl's name is a reference to bottoming in gay sex, and has nothing to do with women. And even Cheryl Cole herself has praised the name, when Cheryl Hole met her on Drag Race UK. She said, “Aw Babe, I love that. Thank you so much. I can’t thank you enough.”

When it comes down to it, the homophobic backlash is nothing but a pathetic attempt to mask hatred for the LGBTQ+ community. It's a way for people to punch down on a harmless drag queen. It's an excuse to belittle the LGBTQ+ community, which has done nothing but contribute to British culture.

Unfortunately, this kind of hate is becoming more and more common. And it's a frightening reminder of how dangerous it can be to be part of the LGBTQ+ community. We've seen a rise in attacks on LGBTQ+ people, and even a YouGov poll revealed that one in four people in the UK have an unfavorable view of trans people.

The good news is that there are still drag queens out there who are brave enough to show their faces in public, and represent the LGBTQ+ community as it should be. Cheryl Hole is one of them. And we must continue to support them and stand up to these hateful bigots.
