      Monique Hart’s laugh It’s probs because she fits what most believe believe now to be a drag queen. A few years ago they might’ve gotten Courtney Act because everybody thought queens should look like women but now people people’s idea of drag is exaggerated feminine features which Tracy fits because she is inspired by Barbie.

      Most word origin stories that are acronyms are myths. Words didn't form that way until very recently, it just wasn't how our language worked. That's why so many actual acronyms, like RADAR and SCUBA, LASER, GIF, NATO, etc, are very modern inventions.
