“Cada día había que tapar la barba, sacarse los bigotes con cera, pasarse horas planchándose el pelo con la plancha de la ropa, caminar sobre zapatos imposibles, hay que decirlo, imposibles, cómo pudo alguien en el mundo inventar esos zapatos de acrílico, tan altos que se podía ver el mundo entero desde arriba, tan altos que no daban ganas de bajarse de ellos, tan altos que los clientes pedían por favor que no te los sacaras, y los lamían esperando saborear un poco de esa gloria travesti, esa frivolidad tan honda, esos piesotes de varón coronados por zapatos de princesa puta.”
― Camila Sosa Villada, Bad Girls
