Slang[edit]
In slang, this has a verb and a noun sense similar to read: something like "to insult" or "to call attention to someone's flaws" (and as a noun: an instance of that). google:"OMG the drag" finds a small number of relevant hits (instances of people exclaiming that after someone "drags" someone else), though nothing durably archived. - -sche (discuss) 06:33, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

- Person 2: "Because you'd have to be taking a drag to do it"
- Person 2: "That's like something an old person would say."
Also this page currently has the category "crossdressing"; I'm not sure if that's correct. --NoToleranceForIntolerance (talk) 06:10, 25 May 2017 (UTC)
