the words honestly are confusing. i can admit that. out of context “drag queen” would mean nothing to me either.
as i understand it, a drag queen is someone (usually a man?) who dresses up in flamboyant clothing of the opposite gender and takes on a character, like a stage identity, and everyone’s stage identity is individual to themselves. from what I’ve seen, the stories behind a stage identity are often as interesting as the costumes themselves, which can be very intricate and eye catching.
drag queen competitions can feature singing, dancing, showmanship, acrobatics, comedy, and are a good time, check one out if you get a chance.
Often yes, but not always. Women occasionally dress as drag queens. The whole idea is to be absurdist, taking femininity to the extreme, being flamboyant, and gay as fuck.
Absolutely, because drag is inherently, culturally queer. It’s like putting on a Freddy Mercury costume as a straight cis dude. Even if you yourself aren’t a part of the LGBT, the act itself is queer.
Accurate. Woman (or men, I guess, never seen it myself) can also be Drag Kings, which is the same idea of applying extreme flamboyance to the concept of masculinity. Things like exaggerated handlebar mustaches, very well-coifed beards, cod pieces, lip syncing to Elvis, etc. Still also supremely gay!

Pro wrestling without quite so much machismo.

It’s absolutely amazing too
If a woman is dressed as a drag queen, is it sill “gay as fuck”?
