Since this wiki isn't Wikipedia (see Wikipedia's article on drag[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag]), this page should focus on aspects of drag that are specifically relevant to people who are [[nonbinary]], or at least to help disambiguate drag from other kinds of gender nonconforming [[clothing]] and [[transgender]] [[transition]] of [[gender expression]]. | |||
