Glossary Term

Drag

[dræɡ]
  • (Gender Expression)

Noun; Adjective.

The act of performing a gender or presenting as a different gender, usually for the purpose of entertainment (i.e. drag kings and queens).

Drag is literally just a safe space for LGBTQ+ people. It is where we can be unapologetically us and find people who are unapologetically them.
