Female impersonators are men that dress, make-up and conduct themselves in such a way that they look like women, sometimes they are almost indistinguishable.

Drag Queens take it one step up – and make female impersonation into a art form. The world of drag is complete with pageantry, dance, amazing sewing and costumes, singing, humor and amazement.

I have nothing but the greatest admiration for the these fancy boys that have the courage and skill to leave their apartments carrying a purse and then prance about on a stage.

Because of their lives as entertainers, and the negative stigma of female impersonators drag queens are often accepted as jokes – but we forget about the human part of them.

This includes being a parent

Beautiful drama with Alan Cumming and Garett Dillahunt as two gay men – one a closeted straight-laced attorney, another a flamboyant drag queen.

It is based on the true stories of gay men who have adopted children.

If you don’t shed a tear watching this, you’d better check for a pulse.

Ru Paul’s Drag Race

Now on season nine!

February 2, 2009 RuPaul rocked the world by starting Drag Race. Every season approximately twelve queens competed for the honor of being Queen – cash prizes and lots of fame and fortune.

I love looking at all the queens, they are so marvelous and talented no matter how far along they got in the competition.
