Noun, adjective. The act of performing a gender or presenting as a different gender, usually for the purpose of entertainment (i.e. drag kings and queens). Many people who do drag may not wish to present as a different gender all of the time.
“Drag is literally just a safe space for LGBTQ+ people. It is where we can be unapologetically us and find people who are unapologetically them.”
