wtf is a drag queen?
-
Is this a bit or do you really not know what drag is?
A drag queen is (usually) a man who dresses in an exaggerated female style for performances, and often have an over the top or pun stage name (ex: Divine, Kim Chi).

Registered 1 week ago and this is their only comment. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt but...

But now a whole lot of people are better informed. Save the hand wringing for if they come back in bad faith. Or as my mom used to say, don't borrow trouble.

Yeah, I regret the comment now and I have apologised to OP.

If they're ESL I totally get it. Neither of the two component words in their most common use would lead you to the correct meaning.

I learned English (3rd language) and the phrase "dressed in drag" made no sense to me
-
They really love catching the wind and upping their coefficient. It calls to the soul

No I had no clue. Only know the word as a verb or in the context of drag coeficient. Thank you for the explanation.

Sorry for doubting you

now imagining drag queens standing in wind tunnels to study the aerodynamics of their attire, with scientists standing on the side rubbing their chins wisely

the words honestly are confusing. i can admit that. out of context "drag queen" would mean nothing to me either.
as i understand it, a drag queen is someone (usually a man?) who dresses up in flamboyant clothing of the opposite gender and takes on a character, like a stage identity, and everyone's stage identity is individual to themselves. from what I've seen, the stories behind a stage identity are often as interesting as the costumes themselves, which can be very intricate and eye catching.
drag queen competitions can feature singing, dancing, showmanship, acrobatics, comedy, and are a good time, check one out if you get a chance.

(usually a man?)
Often yes, but not always. Women occasionally dress as drag queens. The whole idea is to be absurdist, taking femininity to the extreme, being flamboyant, and gay as fuck.
-
It's absolutely amazing too
-
Accurate. Woman (or men, I guess, never seen it myself) can also be Drag Kings, which is the same idea of applying extreme flamboyance to the concept of masculinity. Things like exaggerated handlebar mustaches, very well-coifed beards, cod pieces, lip syncing to Elvis, etc. Still also supremely gay!
-
that just sounds like randy savage
-
-
If a woman is dressed as a drag queen, is it sill "gay as fuck"?
-
Absolutely, because drag is inherently, culturally queer. It's like putting on a Freddy Mercury costume as a straight cis dude. Even if you yourself aren't a part of the LGBT, the act itself is queer.

Pro wrestling without quite so much machismo.

i like how it's always the fairly innocuous questions that gets shit. That's my favorite part of the internet. We have so much respect for people, except for the ones we don't like, and even less for the ones who we think might be doing a little bit of trolling.
The internet wouldn't be the internet otherwise.
