They are guided by a question about the ways in which this practice relates to their gender. Additionally, it analyses the role that certain resources play in these identities, understood as capitals. It is discovered that being a Drag is a nearby cultural resource for young people, especially considering their socioeconomic status and their contact with gay culture (Martel, 2014). Also, knowing that they belong to a medium-high social level in Lima, strongly connected with a special social, cultural, economic and symbolic foundations that marked their routes in what is considered Drag and made it possible. Through the world of Drag , young people experience identity transformation in relation to gender (Perlongher, 2016), through a behaviour that combines elements associated with the feminine and the masculine, and that allows them to experiment with identities that are far from those that are understood as traditional (male-male and female-female). Thus, gender identity and the Drag world end up relating through this process that we call becoming Drag.Este trabajo estudia las identidades de género de jóvenes de entre 20 y 26 años de estratos medio-altos limeños que hacen drag. Lo orienta una pregunta por las formas en que la práctica del drag se vincula con aquellas. Adicionalmente, analiza el rol que cumplen ciertos recursos, entendidos como capitales, en dichas identidades.

Así también, el pertenecer a estratos medio-altos de la sociedad limeña, y los capitales social, cultural, económico y simbólico que se asocian a estos, han marcado sus rutas en lo drag y las han hecho posible. Mediante el drag, los jóvenes experimentan devenires identitarios en relación con el género (Perlongher, 2016), a través de una performance que combina elementos asociados a lo femenino y lo masculino, y que les permite experimentar con identidades que distan de las que se entienden como “clásicas” (hombre-masculino y mujer-femenina).
