Resumen
Este estudio pone de relieve los riesgos significativos para la salud de las drag queens, incluidas las lesiones musculoesqueléticas y el acceso limitado a la atención médica. La investigación adicional es crucial para mejorar el bienestar de esta comunidad LGBTQIA+ poco estudiada.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Fisiología
- Dermatología
- Estudios de género
- La salud mental
- Antropología médica
Sus antecedentes:
- Las preocupaciones de salud de las drag queens son en gran medida poco estudiadas.
- El rendimiento de arrastre implica demandas físicas únicas y riesgos potenciales para la salud.
- Es necesario comprender las necesidades específicas de atención médica de esta población.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para examinar la salud física de las drag queens profesionales.
- Para evaluar el acceso y la utilización de la atención médica entre las drag queens.
- Proponer estrategias para promover el bienestar integral de las drag queens.
Principales métodos:
- Las drag queens profesionales en los EE.UU. completaron el Grupo de Trabajo de Danza / EE.UU. sobre la Salud de los Bailarines.
- El examen de salud evaluó el historial médico, las métricas musculoesqueléticas y la aptitud cardiovascular.
- Los autores se basaron en la experiencia de varios campos de la medicina y las ciencias sociales para discutir las necesidades de atención sanitaria.
Principales resultados:
- El 50% de los participantes tenía una excelente condición cardiovascular, mientras que otros mostraron resultados por debajo de la media.
- El 100% exhibió rigidez de rotación interna de la cadera; el 83% tenía rigidez de flexión de la cadera.
- Las lesiones musculoesqueléticas fueron reportadas por 4 de cada 7; sólo 3 de cada 7 tenían seguro de salud, y 4 de cada 7 tenían retraso en las visitas de atención primaria.
Conclusiones:
- Las drag queens se enfrentan a riesgos de lesiones musculoesqueléticas, problemas dermatológicos y daños psicosociales.
- Hay una necesidad urgente de estrategias integrales de salud para las drag queens.
- Comprender y abordar la salud de las poblaciones LGBTQIA+ poco estudiadas es fundamental.
