Theater remained the main platform for drag queens for a long time. However some began to create their own acts for Vaudeville, the equivalent to Broadway at the time.According to Ryan Roschke for Popsugar, in the 1930’s the idea of a third sex began to arise. This third sex would compose of feminine men and masculine women who were attracted to a member of the same sex. This idea was widely talked about and was the ultimate factor in linking drag and homosexuality. Though the topic was tossed around and exciting and taboo this did not mean drag queens were popular. Drag queens were outcast by society and looked down upon. Roschke says that drag performers would only perform for private parties that would sometimes be raided by police.
