Over the years as the LGBTQ+ community has begun to gain more acceptance, drag queens have become more and more accepted by society and, in many cases, they are even loved. Many people enjoy attending a drag show for the humor, the provocative nature, or even just to have a good time. Because of this, the topic of drag queens rarely comes up in an academic setting and the nature of these shows is also rarely questioned. Therefore, the purpose of this annotated bibliography is to show that there are discussions being had out there, academic or otherwise, that hold a lot of reason, legitimacy, and credibility. I plan to use these as evidence in my research topic regarding whether drag queens are helpful or harmful to the LGBTQ+ community.
