As I said, many people have already raised their points in replies to you already. But since you insist, I'll tell you what exactly I found ridiculous in your comments.
You said society as a whole doesn't accept men wearing clothes other than those deemed traditionally masculine and you call it "BS".
The same way, the society doesn't want to accept feminist ideas and wants to hold onto old patriarchal ideas. So only because society doesn't support the emancipation of women, will you also call that idea "BS"?
You never got what others were saying. Point wasn't about Ranveer or Billy Porter or why they wore what they wore. It was about FREE WILL.
It's OKAY if someone wants to dress different, whatever the reason be EVEN if someone wants to make fun of them or not talk to them over it.
Emancipation of women is supported by a large and voluminous section of the society. Even the most uneducated trashy anti-feminist person will not dare say out loud that he doesn't support women's emancipation. So there.
Emancipation and rights of certain communities are basic human rights. It's downright disgusting to compare that to something as frivolous as cross-dressing.
And, who ever spoke against free will? It's Ranveer and Porter's choice to wear what they want, it's people's right to tell them they look ridiculous. What you gonna do? Tape their mouths? Bring laws against free speech? If that suits you, go right ahead.
And finally, I think it's YOU who didn't get what people are saying. Nobody brought in free will here, they're all advocating gender-fluid clothing. Free will isn't even a point of discussion here. It's about forcing everyone to like and advocate cross-dressing, which isn't okay.
