Gay Figure Skaters Pave Their Own Way in "Icebreakers"

But the most startling event was the couples competition, which featured a pair of male skaters, dressed in camouflage, with tape over their mouths in an "X"-a direct protest against the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy. The couple who followed them-two shirtless men, around the same height, alternately lifting each other up and rolling over each other with playful, affectionate aggression-struck me as equally political, suggesting not just what was banned but what was possible.

The program is full of death defying twirls, lifts, and jumps. There's some hairography and even a bit of voguing before the routine closes as RuPaul demands: "You better work."
