A professional adheres to ethical standards of behaviour. If a drag queen wants to call herself a professional drag artist, what would be the ethical standards she would need to follow?
If you write them out here perhaps the drag community could build some consensus.

It could also mean having a professional attitude about drag period: having a polished appearance, attending major functions on a regular basis, preparing numbers where you know the words and that suit your on stage persona...
The drag association in the early '80s, GamesOfAtlanticCanada, did have this. See their page for a description of it.
