  • Drag Shows: Drag Queens and Female Impersonators by Andres Mario Zervigon
    Drag Shows: Drag Queens and Female Impersonators by Andres Mario Zervigon Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Drag performer Lady Bunny. Female impersonation appears to have existed through the length of human Portrait by Sasha civilization and the breadth of its cultures. Ancient Roman literature and history Vaughn, courtesy feature a multitude of male cross-dressers, while in numerous Native American ladybunny.net. cultures, cross-dressing berdaches were respected as prophets and seers who were able to glimpse the world through both masculine and feminine perspectives. In the late nineteenth century, Richard von Krafft-Ebing observed in his Psychopathia Sexualis (1887) that the smallest German hamlets often featured drag culture. In contemporary India men who choose to live and dance as women are regarded with particular religious reverence. Female Impersonation and Sexual Identity Female impersonation need say nothing about sexual identity. For example, many male actors in Elizabethan England and in the classical Chinese theater performed female roles because women were generally banned from the stage. Whether or not these performances blurred the sexual identification of the actors remains a point of debate in social and theater history and a focus of recent films such as Shakespeare in Love (1998) and Farewell My Concubine (1993). Although transvestism, a term coined by Magnus Hirschfeld in 1910 and derived from the Latin for "across" and "dress," is practiced mostly by heterosexual males, the performance of female impersonation has come to be associated particularly with glbtq culture. Why this should be so is not altogether clear, but it may be that gender transgression is a component of sexual transgression or at least evokes empathy among those crossing sexual boundaries, particularly when these boundaries seem difficult to define.
