I want to attend a drag king workshop to connect with my inner masculinity. I want to meet the other attendees and explore our desire to express our masculinity and attraction for each other in a way I've never done before—packers, binders, and the defiance of patriarchy turn me on like nothing else.

This film celebrates the journey of those brave enough to take on a different gender and redefine what it means to be a man. By redefining masculinity through drag king performances, they are pushing the boundaries of traditional gender roles and challenging the notion that there is only one way to be a man. Through their performances, drag kings explore themes of gender identity, sexuality, and power dynamics. By creating an inclusive space for all genders to explore and express themselves.

Featuring Diosa Mor, Casey Calvert , and Jean Ambar as Drag Kings, this adult movie will challenge your perspective of what it means to be a man.

Drag king workshops originated from the need to create safe spaces for queer people (especially trans and nonbinary AFAB folks).
Desire, identity, love, pleasure, and power are all constructions that intersectionally build upon the white male gaze in a binary way. Queers who do not fit into the prescribed norm get excluded from the right to desire, exist, love, and feel pleasure.

In this workshop, through a creative play with drag king performances, participants develop meaningful experiences around these concepts, deconstructing and reappropriating them on their terms. But most importantly, they share the process with others with similar life experiences and struggles—creating an intimate, powerful bond that stays with them after the workshop.

Societal norms push queers to be isolated from one another; hence this bond represents a crack in the norm. The power resides in coming together and entirely celebrating our existence.

The celebration of new masculinities has increasingly become a feature of modern society, and drag king workshops are one of the most creative and inclusive ways to explore them. Drag king workshops are a safe space for individuals to explore different aspects of masculinity, challenge gender norms, and celebrate their own unique identity.

Through drag king workshops, participants can explore a range of topics such as the history of drag kings, body confidence, and the importance of consent. They can also learn how to create a drag king persona, experiment with makeup and performance.

These workshops are a great way to meet new people, share experiences, and build community. They provide a space for people of all genders and identities to come together and create a safe and inclusive atmosphere.

Drag king workshops are also a great way to build self-confidence and learn more about gender identity. Through these workshops, participants can learn to express themselves in ways that are empowering and liberating, and celebrate new masculinities.

Collaborating with Ken Pollet was a fantastic experience, and my team and I learned a lot about questioning gender and masculinity.
