'Drag Race's Hormona Lisa 'struggling' to navigate anti-trans rhetoric

"It feels surreal," the RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 star said in an interview.

Hormona Lisa is one of many trans queens to appear on RuPaul's Drag Race. Following her recent elimination in episode 6, she is now speaking out on President Donald Trump's attacks on trans people.

During an interview with Entertainment Weekly's Joey Nolfi, the season 17 star addressed Trump's executive order banning trans girls and women from competing in sports.

"Something I've always tried to do is validate and love myself where I don't need it externally, and that's something we're going to have to all focus on developing, especially over these next four years," Hormona explained. "It's not going to be the last thing to happen towards trans and queer people in general. It makes it more important to know what you bring to the table and that it has value."

She continued, "I don't know what to think. I'm struggling to put the words together because it doesn't feel like that's what's happening. We're kind of going in a different direction these last four years, with public perception of trans people. Then you have stuff like this come up. It feels surreal."

On Feb. 5, President Trump signed an executive order that mandated trans women and girls to be shut out of women's and girls' sports. The so-called "Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports" executive order says that trans athletes competing in women's sports is "demeaning, unfair, and dangerous to women and girls."

Hormona added that she was having a hard time finding the words to describe how she feels about the country "going backwards with queer people and people of color" because she "didn't think I'd have to feel like this in my lifetime."

"I thought fighting to be valued as a person and seen as a person was over with. From here, more visibility, but now we're going backwards with how these people don’t see us as human. It's crazy and hard to find words," she said.

RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 airs every Friday on MTV.
