en femme and en drab

[Rebekah_uk]

I have a question as a newbie here, can somebody explain them to me i maybe have an understanding of en femme but not the second one.

[Stephanie Michelle]

en drab is when you in your guy clothes

[Beverley Sims]

That's all it is dressed as a girl or dressed as a man.
Next question Rebekah.

[Sometimes Steffi]

Drab = DRessed as A Boy = en homme = male mode
Drag = DRessed as A Girl = en femme = girl mode

It took me a while to get use to the way they like to play about with words , in the beginning I thought that Drab ment you just had old clothes on and not any particular type :heehee: silly me :o

From what I understand, it came from the theater of Shakespeare's time when all the actors where men. So if the script called for a woman, a man would have to play that part in drag. Otherwise they were in drab.
