“I never knew that he was into drag”

COMING OUT 
 
Dear Gary,
Last night a friend of mine showed up for dinner in drag.  We’ve been friends since I came out two years ago.  I never even knew he was into drag.  To me it was very obvious that “Joe” was male even though he was made up and wearing a dress.  I like “Joe” a lot and he’s helped me a lot with my coming out but frankly it was kind of uncomfortable eating dinner in my town with a cross dresser that was obvious.  I didn’t leave and made the best of what felt to me like an uncomfortable situation.  Should I stay friends with him?  Shouldn’t he have told me he was coming in drag?  Is there something wrong with me or with him?
