Drag Queens and Drag Kings

Leila J. Rupp, Verta Taylor · The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Sociology · 2016

Abstract Drag queens and drag kings are men, women, and transgender people who perform femininity, masculinity, or something in between. Different styles of drag, across the United States and around the world, call attention to the performativity of gender and play a part in community building for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people. Drag queens have a long history, while drag kings are a more recent phenomenon. In black and Latino communities, what is known as “ballroom” features competitions in a variety of categories where individuals aim for “realness.” Much of the scholarship on drag has focused on the question of how such performances reify or challenge gender and sexual binaries.

Aerodynamic Drag and Drag Reduction

Richard M. Wood · 41st Aerospace Sciences Meeting and Exhibit · 2003

An assessment of the role of fluid dynamic resistance and/or aerodynamic drag and the relationship to energy use in the United States is presented. Existing data indicates that up to 25% of the total energy consumed in the United States is used to overcome aerodynamic drag, 27% of the total energy used in the United States is consumed by transportation systems, and 60% of the transportation energy or 16% of the total energy consumed in the United States is used to overcome aerodynamic drag in transportation systems. Drag reduction goals of 50% are proposed and discussed which if realized would produce a 7.85% total energy savings. This energy savings correlates to a yearly cost savings in the $30Billion dollar range.

Jacob Bloomfield · 2023

“A must-read for anyone interested in the history of drag performance.”—​ Publishers Weekly A rich and provocative history of drag's importance in modern British culture. Drag: A British History is a groundbreaking study of the sustained popularity and changing forms of male drag performance in modern Britain. With this book, Jacob Bloomfield provides fresh perspectives on drag and recovers previously neglected episodes in the history of the art form. Despite its transgressive associations, drag has persisted as an intrinsic, and common, part of British popular culture—drag artists have consistently asserted themselves as some of the most renowned and significant entertainers of their day. As Bloomfield demonstrates, drag was also at the center of public discussions around gender and sexuality in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, from Victorian sex scandals to the "permissive society" of the 1960s. This compelling new history demythologizes drag, stressing its ordinariness while affirming its important place in British cultural heritage.
