Slang

[edit]

In slang, this has a verb and a noun sense similar to read: something like "to insult" or "to call attention to someone's flaws" (and as a noun: an instance of that). google:"OMG the drag" finds a small number of relevant hits (instances of people exclaiming that after someone "drags" someone else), though nothing durably archived. - -sche (discuss) 06:33, 15 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

From en:wikipedia:Drag

  • Drag (clothing), the clothing associated with one gender role when worn by a person of another gender
    • Drag king, mostly female identified people who dress and perform as males
    • Drag queen, mostly male identified people who dress and perform as females
    • Drag show, entertainment, cross-dressing ensemble

Dialog:

Person 1: "Why is it called 'drag'?"
Person 2: "Because you'd have to be taking a drag to do it"
Person 2: "That's like something an old person would say."

Also this page currently has the category "crossdressing"; I'm not sure if that's correct. --NoToleranceForIntolerance (talk) 06:10, 25 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
