Exclusive distribution by MAGCORP, The Original Magazine For Men Who Enjoy Dressing Like Women! Editorial Hello all, It’s been a whirl-wind couple of months here since our last issue. We had a lovely time recently in San Francisco at the exciting Miss California Continental Beauty Pageant for the 1987-1988 term. The capable and glamourous LaRey was on hand to host the evening with the assured assistance from Jim Flint. It was so fun to go out of town for a change to see how they do it “up there. ” We noticed more evening wear on the gentlemen and a generally more formal atmosphere for all concerned. The participation by state and local officials gave the festivities a foundation of respect that was inspiring. We’d like to thank Miss Sally for her wonderful contribution in this issue. Most of you should now be familiar with her fantastic and humorous fiction work in F.M.L We hope you enjoy this poetic piece. Earlier this year we all packed up our gowns and took offfor New Orleans for the remarkable Mardi Gras celebration. It was rigorous work and a lot of fun too. Eating, drinking, shopping and making films all at once is a great way to while away your days. Once again, I’d like to remind all of you out there of the joys of safe sex. Now we often print stories and letters that deal with unsafe sex practices, but remember that this magazine is also a forum for fantasy and fantasies are fairly safe. Maybe we should come out with our own brand of F.M.L condoms. Irredescent purple, maybe? Keep it safe, Kim latest from Kim V explores the dark sides of the I ^^^^mrdi Gras Celebration and I ^ml it ’s lurid mysteries. On these 1 pages we see the muses, Angie and her buddy Taija Rae as they haunt k the streets of the city of ^ New Orleans.

Dear Kim, I have enjoyed very much the since I received all the latest back issues, recently-. To read about all the sisters and see their beautiful photos. Reading all the letters of the other girls, it gives me confidence and that we all have a lot in common. My first recollection of dressing,;’ was as a young child. I was cared for by an aunt. She loved little girls and because I had beautiful curls, she thought I should have been a girl. She kept my curls long and also liked to dress me in dresses. Being with her all the time, I was exposed to her lovely clothes, and was curious panties, girdles, bras and Then as I was able to play, my only playmates (I love them). Playing with girls they always wanted to dress me in their clothes. (I protested, but not really.) Then I becanTe oTder and still found myself always looking at girls’ clothes in the kores.

Hosted by veteran drag performer RuPaul, Drag Race features drag queen entertainers vying for the title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar.” Since premiering in 2009, the show has become a queer cultural phenomenon that successfully commodifies and markets Camp and drag performance to television audiences at heretofore unprecedented levels. Over its nine seasons, the show has provided more than 100 drag queen artists with a platform to showcase their talents, and the Drag Race franchise has expanded to include multiple television series and interactive live events. The RuPaul’s Drag Race phenomenon provides researchers with invaluable opportunities not only to consider the function of drag in the 21st Century, but also to explore the cultural and economic ramifications of this reality television franchise.

  • The Queer Economy of Rupaul's Drag Race by Ted
    MOTHER OF THE HOUSE OF NO SHAME: THE QUEER ECONOMY OF RUPAUL’S DRAG RACE BY TED FAUST DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications & Media in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2019 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor James Hay, Chair Professor CL Cole Associate Professor Richard T. Rodriguez, UC Riverside Assistant Professor Amanda Ciafone i ABSTRACT In this dissertation, I consider the television show RuPaul’s Drag Race and the vast web of digital and broadcast media productions it has spawned, as a means to explore the changing cultural, technological, and economic conditions that have allowed for the emergence of a widespread queer media economy in which it is currently positioned as a central touchstone and engine of production and productivity. I seek to understand the history and evolution of the changing economics and production practices of the reality television genre that led to the emergence of (and have been deployed, tweaked, and recirculated by) the semi-satirical Drag Race; to better understand its position, as a “broadcast” cable television show, in a wider network of “new” and “spreadable” social media enterprises flowing into and out of it; to analyze the artistic, aesthetic, ethical and ascetic technologies of the self practiced by the contestants on the show, alongside a genealogical account of their origins in queer spaces and subcultures; and to explore the show’s position in a wider television landscape, asking how it is related to other programs of the current conjuncture, its technologization and commodification of a queer mode of belonging, and its relationships to virtual and material queer spaces as a globalized cultural technology.

    DRAG IN OKLAHOMA: THE POWER OF PERFORMANCE BY: STEPHANIE VICTORIA ALLEN A thesis submitted to the graduate faculty in partial fulfillment requirements for the degree of MASTERS OF HISTORY University of Central Oklahoma 2017 0 Acknowledgments I would like to thank the professors and students that I have worked with at the University of Central Oklahoma (UCO). They have supported me with advice and resources to further my thesis. First, I would like to thank my thesis chairman and professor Dr. Lindsey Churchill for believing in me when I did not believe in myself. Without her enthusiasm, dedication, and mentorship this work would not have been possible. Dr. Katrina Lacher also on my committee, for introducing me to public entertainment history and supporting my decision to write a thesis on it. Heidi Vaughn, the third member of my committee, for always being there for me when I needed it. I have never met a more helpful person. To my friends and family thank you for the support and toleration. To David Whitmire for your constant love and motivation. A special thanks to Verta Taylor and Leila Rupp. Their publications gave me the base from which to start this research and many of my interview questions came from their work. To the community of UCO scholars, I will forever be grateful for the support and comradery. I would specifically like to thank Patrick and Helen Salkeld for pushing me and taking a real interest in this research. To each of the drag artists who graciously allowed me to interview them I am deeply grateful, this work would be nothing without you.
