All of the Drag Kings I've known have been lesbian so far, but not any particular type of lesbian, they've just been performers. While I know a couple of transboys who perform, I haven't known any who do drag.. or didn't know. A friend of mine who's been a lesbian performer for years and has dated a series of drag kings, is now dating an FTM drag king. He even has video's on Facebook and possibly Youtube. Like you he started performing before his transition.

I know some people don't feel like Transboys should be drag kings. How can someone male impersonate a male? But then why not? Straight men impersonate gay boys, camp boys, geeks, drag queens, nerds, Elvis, red necks, Rocky, gay male porn stars and sportsmen all the time and no one ever says anything. And if we're going to pull the gender card on Kings, should we focus our beady eyes on Queens, as I've known a few who were performing as female impersonators while in the midst of a transition

Kings and Queens and ballerinos are all just there for our entertainment. Like doctors, nurses and the person who drives the ambulance, their gender is (mostly) irrelevant.
