(1) Drag queens Noxema/Zima Jackson/Auntie Noxy (Wesley Snipes) and Chichi Rodriquez (John Leguizamo) in To Wong Foo. Thanks for Everything. Julie Newmar (1995):
-- Noxema: ' Darling, if you're going to become a drag queen , you're gonna have to learn these things .'
-- Chichi: ' What do you mean 'a drag queen'? I am a drag queen! '
-- Noxema: ' Oh, child, no , no , no . You're simply a boy in a dress. When a straight man puts a dress and gets his sexual kick he is a transvestite ; when a man is a woman trapped in a man's body and has the little operation he is a transsexual ; (...) when a gay man has way too much fashion sense for one gender he is a drag queen . (...) And when a light little Latin boy puts on a dress he is simply a boy in a dress .' In the end , they agree to give Chichi the temporary title of 'drag princess'.
(2) Chichi Rodriquez (John Leguizamo) to Vita Boheme (Patrick Swayze) in To Wong Foo. Thanks for Everything. Julie Newmar (1995): ' Vita, you know , you're not a queen because you rule people or you sit-on-the-throne , baby , you're a queen because you couldn't cut it as a man so you had to put on a dress .'
