Love chicks dressed as dudes? You're in luck! Drag kings from around the world are descending on Chicago this weekend. International Drag King Extravaganza 6 is a three-day conference with events held at area venues, starting tomorrow. This year's theme -- "gendeRevolution" -- will be explored through academic and non-academic panel discussions, and celebrated through visual art and live performances. Serious discussions plus red-hot fun!
