It’s more than a wig and lipstick! It is an artform, it is a lifestyle!

There are a lot of misconceptions about dragqueens, people say that only misfits and outcasts dress up like slutty girls. But in reality it is a complicated process with takes a lot of time and attention.

People assume those arty men want to be women, but that is not the case at all. You have to see it as a job, an alter ego which takes them away from reality for a while. They step in this whole new character and they feel fabulous about it. It is not about being a woman, it is about the power of being whoever you like to be and be proud of it.

Another big misconception is that only gay men dress up like Queens, not true at all! Even heterosexual men do this in their free time. It is about time we realize the drag scene is very diverse.

There are a lot of different types of drags: Butch Queens, Fishy Queens, Hairy Queens, Pageant queen etc. Every queen has their own preferences. You shouldn’t label drags, like you shouldn’t label any type of person. We are all the same, we are all one!
