Symbolic Interaction •Volume 32, Number2, 2009

are more feminine than gay white men that gives them -an advantage in winning

various pageants and becoming "successful" drag queens rather than just, as one

informant noted; "a boy in a dress." Rather than a spoiled identity preventing them

from successfully managing their stigma, it facilitates stigma management by allow-

ing them to trade a stigmatized status that provides them no benefits to one that, at

least, provides them with the ability to gain some level of status and notoriety within

the gay community.

In examining the experiences of gay Asian men, this article demonstrates that

stigma and stigmananagement is a complex phenomenon that is intimately con-

nected to the social context in which stigmatization occurs. More important, it dem-

onstrates that stigma is not a binary between those who are stigmatized and those

who stigmatize. Instead, stigma is hierarchically ranked between those who are less

stigmatized and those who are more stigmatized. While passing as "normal" may be

difficult for stigmatized individuals within the normal-abnormal binary, it is possible

fov members to trade a more-stigmatized status with a less-stigmatized status, using

the very characteristics that are stigmatized to do so.

this is redacted liberal nonsense.

a kind of impersonation and approximation." Seen this way, drag queens are not per-

forming femininity but parodying it. This reading of drag would imply that queens

be seen as being the most successful. Butler's

reading of drag, however, is limited because she does not distinguish between vari-

ous types of drag queens. In fact, Schacht (2002) distinguishes at least four different

renditions of drag, each with its own rules and expectations for performance. While

some drag queens who perform a satire of exacgerated femininity do gain some

notoriety within the gay community, the biggest accolades are typically reserved for

drag queens who can present what members of the gay community consider the

most realistic gender presentation. Ultimately, the drag queen who can pass as a

"real" woman gains the most•notoriety and status (Schacht 2002).

(West and Zim-

merman 1987), drag performances are conscious presentations of an illusion. Drag

queens are dramaturgically aware that they are presenting an illusion and actively

manage the impressions that they project. This ability to manage the impression

that she presents to the audience allows drag queens to be judged •positively and

as presenting a creditable image of a "real" woman. Although the presentation of

perceived authenticity in a drag competition is an explicit reminder that all gender

and sexualities are based in ritualistic performances—whether these performances

are taken-for-granted or not (Butler 1993)—drag performances can be manipulated

and controlled to resent thé illusio

s."

For gay ASian men, their perceived feminine traits allow them to manipulate the

illusion and appear more "real" than white drag queens. For example, one white drag

queen was quoted as saying, "I'm never entering another pageant with Asian girls

again.... they're just too hard to beat. %ey're just way too real, it's not even fair"

(Han 2005:83). Because performers are aware of their self-presentation, being a drag

queen is not a gender •performance per se, but a conscious presentation of gender

where performers actively adopt sexual. and gender scripts to present an illusiop.

In this context, being "real" doesn't imply that audience members and judges are

actually fooled into believing that the queen is an "authentic" woman but that they,

based on their existing perceptions about Åender, judge the queen to have achieved

the presentation of "realness." Because gay Asian men are perceived in the gay com-

munity to be more feminine than gay white men, they are better able to convince

judges and audience members that they have achieved "realness," thereby winning

multiple drag titles. In this way, they are able to trade the more-stigmatized status of

race with a less-stigmatized status of ueen usin

recisel the characteristics that

lead to their stigmatization in the first place
