'''Transformista''' is a spanish<ref>https://es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformismo</ref>, catalan<ref>https://ca.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformisme</ref>, and portuguese<ref>https://pt.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformista</ref> word for a person who dresses in clothing of the opposite sex out of artistic interests.<br />
<br />
[[Drag Queen|Drag queen]], [[travesti]], [[Transvestite|tranvestite]] and transformista are similar but distinct terms. Although these three words are often used interchangeably by the general population, there are some differences in their usage.<br />
<br />
Travesti can be used in general for [[Gender Non-Conforming|gender non-conforming]] men, [[Transfeminine|transgender women]] (only as a re-appropriated term and under use by the [[Transgender|trans]] community) and even as a gender identity in itself, drag queen and transformista are more commonly used to refer to an artistic activity. Drag queen refers to a performer who does not necessarily dress as the opposite gender (see bio queens). They can also engage in things like singing, theater, skating, acting, dancing, lip-syncing, etc. Transformista falls under the category of drag and usually refers only to dressing in clothing of the opposite gender and impersonation, more like a female impersonator than anything else, focused on the aspect of transformation.<ref>https://lgbt.fandom.com/es/wiki/Transformista?so=search</ref><br />
<br />
Transformist (even when it falls on the drag spectrum) is most often used as a synonym for cross-dresser.<br />
