Does cross-dressing define drag? Drag has always provided me with questions, never answers. It is a phenomena that I have great difficulty grasping. Female identification through drag is simply foreign to me personally and obliterates any sexual interest I might otherwise have. However, only some of these photos do that although all of them involve garments, fabrics and accessories identified with women. So I must conclude the true nature of drag lies in psychology, not dress. In short, the transformation of drag must be cross-gender convincing for me to lose sexual interest. The visual representation of male beauty is of the greatest importance and must not be nullified by female trappings.
