Decolonize Drag
Although imagined as a queer subcultural practice, drag seems to be everywhere we look: from AI filters on TikTok to brunchtime entertainment, from state legislations to political rallies.Yet as drag enters the mainstream—largely due to the intense, global popularity of reality TV competition RuPaul’s Drag Race—some kinds of gender-based performance fall out of the purview of what we (could) call drag. Decolonize Drag details the ways that gender is used as a form of colonial governance to eliminate various types of expression, and tracks how contemporary drag, including that on Drag Race, both replicates and disrupts these institutional hierarchies.This book focuses on several gender performers that resist and laugh at colonial projects through their aesthetic practices.It also features the voice of Khubchandani's drag alter ego, judgmental South Asian aunty LaWhore Vagistan.From the firsthand perspective of a drag artist, LaWhore describes encounters with depoliticized versions of drag that leave her disappointed and perplexed, and prompts Khubchandani for context and analysis. Their dynamic sets the tone for the book, investigating how drag—and gender more broadly—has been privatized and delimited so that it's only available to certain people.Decolonize Drag argues for more abundance in and access to fashioning gender, and considers how drag changes meaning and efficacy as it shifts across geographies.

What is the drag force?
The drag force is a resistive force that acts on an object as it moves through a fluid, such as air or water. It is caused by the friction and pressure difference between the fluid and the surface of the object. The drag force opposes the motion of the object and can significantly affect its speed and trajectory. The magnitude of the drag force depends on the shape, size, and speed of the object, as well as the properties of the fluid through which it is moving.

What is the difference between transgender individuals, transsexuals, drag performers, crossdressers, and drag queens?
Transgender individuals are people whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. Transsexuals are individuals who have undergone medical interventions, such as hormone therapy or surgery, to align their physical body with their gender identity. Drag performers are individuals, often cisgender or transgender, who dress in clothing typically associated with the opposite gender for entertainment purposes. Crossdressers are individuals who occasionally wear clothing traditionally associated with a different gender for various reasons. Drag queens are male performers who dress in exaggeratedly feminine clothing and often perform in drag shows.

What is the difference between the drag coefficient Cw and the drag value Cw?
The drag coefficient Cw is a dimensionless quantity that represents the drag force experienced by an object moving through a fluid, divided by the dynamic pressure of the fluid and the reference area of the object. It is a measure of the object's aerodynamic efficiency and is used to compare the drag of different objects. On the other hand, the drag value Cw is the actual numerical value of the drag coefficient for a specific object. It is a specific measurement of the drag force experienced by that object in a particular fluid flow condition. The drag value Cw is used in calculations and simulations to determine the drag force acting on the object.
