This week we talk to Patrick who grew up identifying as straight but always felt different from the other boys. He liked Project Runway, secretly dancing in his basement to So You Think You Can Dance, painting his toenails so no one would see, and looking at pictures of dudes in tuxedos. We talk with him about what it was like working in the hyper-masculine environment at an oil field and what it is like teaching during the day and performing as a drag queen at night. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram @beyondqueerstories and on Twitter @beyondqueerpod. Look for links on our profiles to submit to be featured on Beyond Queer Stories. You can also email us at beyondqueerstories@gmail.com. Podcast music by DC queer artist Be Steadwell. Check out her music at www.besteadwell.com
