How I Became A Drag Queen

Ugh. This is the one part of drag I won't ever understand. Yes, men are able to put away their dangly bits and imitate women, but WHY!?!?!?!?!? It's not comfortable, it's not good for you, and honestly, it would be so much easier just to be a lady with a bulge. In any case, below is a discussion of tucking, both technical and not, to be as tight as possible. You can tuck without tape, and it's essentially the same procedure just with a gaff (special underwear) instead of tape, but your tuck is definitely not as tight. For a nice, tight tuck, read on wannabe ladies. Reader Warning: some of the visualizations/discussion below are not altogether PG. Probably more R rated. Be warned. And here we go: Okay. Tucking is the process through which a man puts his balls up into his abdomen, and pulls his dick into his ass crack to give the appearance of having a vagina instead of a penis. The testicles, when descending as a child, exit the abdomen through the inguinal ca...

Eyebrows You would think that this doesn’t belong in the finishing touches section of a tutorial…and you would be right!!! I fucked up, and forgot to include eyebrows in the eyes post. Oh well, better late than never. Yes, eyebrows truly dazzle, and they are one of my favourite parts of my drag face because I like bitch brows. So much. A high, sharp arch and dark, harsh lines really bring the resting bitch face to the forefront, and when you combine it with my mountain peaks of lips, it’s a truly bitchy sight. The newest trend however is an ombre eyebrow.   This is where you fade your eyebrow into your face towards the bridge of your nose, avoiding harsh lines. You can also ombre the colour to make it darkest towards the outside of your face, and lightest towards the fade. In either case, start your eyebrows with a light colour to plan out the shape, either a light eyebrow pencil, or a powder eyeshadow. If you want a guideline for positioning of the start, end,...

Two weeks, two performances. To see my first ever drag performance check out my previous post HERE .   While that will always be an important moment for me, my second performance sits very close to my heart as well. <3 OUTreach at the University of Alberta  is a student organization in Edmonton providing LGBTQ+ resources, events, socials, and community on campus (check them out, they're amazing!). Every year (for the past 14 years) they put on an amazing drag show to showcase not only local talent, but also amateurs wanting to put on their first performances. But why is this so important to me??? Why because OUTreach gave me my FIRST EVER drag show back in 2015, and that was where I first realized I wanted to do drag. Oddly enough, it was also my first time seeing a future boyfriend in drag, and his was one of my favourites of the night. It did help though that he performed the incomparable Christina Aguilera, as even if the performance had sucked I would still have ...
