I live in a bubble, but there have been times when my bubble has been burst.
Quote by -Courtney Act
The first time I ever dressed in drag was at a costume party during my childhood. I went as Wonder Woman and my mom even took me to get the costume.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Pride is a time to celebrate what makes us unique and the more we let young people know that those things that make us different are actually our greatest strengths, the more comfortable we are in our own skin and the more peacefully we'll sleep at night.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I'm definitely more attracted to men and masculinity - not just cis men but trans guys, too.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Being trans means different things to different people. Some people don't take hormones, some people don't have surgery, some people are just happy living in the clothes of their chosen gender.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I think that 'Drag Race' would certainly let a straight guy compete in drag.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I think it's so important to think about the basic human rights of others and to use our collective voices, minds and bodies to lift those people up and bring about change.
Quote by -Courtney Act
'Fight For Love' is a dancefloor banger all about coming together and fighting for the things we believe in.
Quote by -Courtney Act
After Pride, Christmas is a drag queen's next best holiday. It's pretty gay, full of tinsel and glitter and finery and campness.
Quote by -Courtney Act
When it all boils down, being Courtney has forced me to be different to the status quo, which means I have gotten to decide on every choice along the way.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Gender roles are absurd when you actually look at them. The fact that anybody could ever say or think that dressing in women's clothes is wrong, or odd. Women dressing in women's clothes and men dressing in men's clothes is the actually the thing that is really odd.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Courtney wants to make the statement that superficial beauty is manufactured and that any woman, or in this case, any man can be beautiful with the right tools.
Quote by -Courtney Act
There is so much frustration in the heterosexual male community manifesting in different ways, whether it be aggression or sexism or racism. I'm not saying all heterosexual men are that way, but you do see a lot of it.
Quote by -Courtney Act
The most vocal fans online are girls, which is interesting. I didn't expect that.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I've learnt I don't have to be a man and I don't have to be a woman, I can just be me.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Caitlyn Jenner, for all of her flaws, did start a conversation around the world about gender.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Changing genders is not a quick process... it takes about two hours to put on all the make-up and the lashes, and the hair, and the corsets, and the seven kinds of adhesives that work in tandem on my body to keep things up and keep things down.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I would have hated for my 'Drag Race' moment to have come down to lip syncing a Whitney Houston song.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Yeah, back in 2003, I went to 'Australian Idol' the first day as a boy, and I got knocked out. So I went back the next day in drag and made it into the Top 12 and got a record deal and toured around Australia.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I love New York audiences, because they're used to going to shows, and you really notice it. They laugh and applaud and do all the things that you want an audience to do.
Quote by -Courtney Act
While dressing up as Courtney is a performance, there is a part of me that is expressing my gender in feminine and masculine ways.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Russia is a very different place than what we in the West are familiar with. We cannot apply our own values and judgments to the country. We need to have greater compassion and understanding and recognize that our similarities are greater than our differences.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Russia isn't only oppressive toward gay people, it is hard on everyone, particularly women.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Brexit happened. Donald Trump is president. If Ann Widdecombe won CBB Year of the Woman, it would be the third sign of the Apocalypse.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I'm an atheist, so I don't believe in a heaven or afterlife. I believe that once I die, that's it.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Obviously drag has different intentions and my drag has always been about gender illusion.
Quote by -Courtney Act
There's something problematic with this idea that straight men can be 'turned', and the binary of gay and straight and the lack of knowledge of the Kinsey scale.
Quote by -Courtney Act
We have such a rigid idea of what heterosexuality is and that's problematic. We have such a rigid idea of what gay is and that's also problematic.
Quote by -Courtney Act
The U.K.'s got the most advanced relationship with masculinity, femininity and sexuality.
Quote by -Courtney Act
Different people are attracted to me depending on how I look. I have a very broad spectrum of attraction.
Quote by -Courtney Act
I was always made to feel that men were desirable because of their masculinity, and for a boy, being feminine was not something you should be proud of. But, I came to realise it's OK for boys to be feminine, for girls to be masculine and we should all express ourselves however we want.
Quote by -Courtney Act
For my teen years and all of my twenties it felt like I was trying to live up to this expectation of being a man and what that meant - not just what clothes I wore, but how I acted.
