Drag queens are entertainers dressed and acting with exaggerated femininity.
- My model of masculinity is a drag queen and my model of femininity is an Amazon. (Venus Boyz)
- I can't stand drag, they're shameless, they've confused circus with transvestism, but what am I saying circus: mime! A woman is hair, long nails, a mouth good for giving blowjobs or criticizing, are you kidding me? Where have you ever seen a bald woman! I can't stand them! They are very shameless! (All about my mother)
- – [criticizing drag queens] When the Founding Fathers drafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and what have you… freedom and justice for all didn't mean that!
– Well, I can tell you one what about the Founding Fathers of America...
– And that's it?
– ...they had amazing wigs! (To Wong Foo, thank you for everything! Julie Newmar) - When a straight man dresses as a woman to have sexual fun, that is cross-dressing. When a man is a woman trapped in a man's body and gets a little operation, that's a transsexual. [...] When a gay, however, has too much sense of style for one sex, that is a drag queen. [...] And when a little Hispanic boy puts on a woman's dress... that's simply a boy dressed as a woman. (To Wong Foo, thank you for everything! Julie Newmar)
- – All Italian males are gay!
– Because the country is shaped like a drag queen's boot! (Will & Grace)
