These Chinese Drag Queens Will Challenge Your Perceptions On Gender
Even though queerness may manifest itself and be understood differently in China than other parts of the world, the country still has some very recognizable emblems of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community -- including drag queens.
Photographer Kevin Frayer provided The Huffington Post with this compelling compilation of photographs documenting drag performers in the Nanning, Guangxi Province of Southern China. All of these drag queens operate out of the same night club, with many of them living and building community with one another outside of work.
The Huffington Post chatted with Frayer this week about his experiences documenting these performers. Check out some of the photographer's work below, as well as a brief interview.
