If you say so. Do you ever ask yourself why these men want to be around young children. If they were not dressed up in these outfits would you still take your kids to see a random man read stories. For some reason the customers and make up somehow make it acceptable.

Ding ding ding

What percent of child abuse is committed by men who first try to blur kids’ boundaries around sex?

Not every drag queen is a danger, but many people who really are a danger would be interested in being in that kind of situation

Some decisions are pretty easy

How is reading books sexual?

Being deliberately obtuse isn’t going to get you anywhere

Seriously. How is a drag queen reading a book sexual? Or “blurring boundaries”?

If you don’t think a man dressing as an over the top woman is blurring boundaries, I don’t know what to tell you.

Like coaches, scout leaders, pastors, that neighbor…

Most often, yes

And if you've made a point of having your kid around a bunch of men in push-up bras acting crazy, do you think that's helped or hurt their ability to recognize where boundaries should be?

Like taking your kids to Disney or Universal Studios with a bunch of men dressed in tights. You think that is dangerous.

You think we should forbid men from being coaches/pastors/etc?

That's a silly analogy

Dressing up as a cartoon character is different from playacting an oversexualized woman (ever seen a queen dressed frumpy & androgynous?)

No I don't think we should forbid men from doing those things

But since men commit oh I don't know 98% of sex offenses I think we also have a responsibility to urge kids to err on the side of NOT being open minded about unconventional sex related behavior from men

This right here.

Drag shows for adults are fine. Hard pass for the kids.

It’s 100% performative when people take their kids to these shows. They have an obsessive need to look accepting and progressive. This is Kristin Mink to a T.

My liberal neighbors in Montgomery County will never miss a chance to push their politics down your throat. And post about it on Facebook to show how ‘progressive’ they are. In reality, they are some of the most intolerant hypocrites I know.

Their politics are so much a part of their identity that they can’t even comprehend nuance or opposing views. It’s definitely a bit like a cult.

Yet you continue to be obtuse.

No, drag is not crossdressing.

What is it then?

Do you really not know?

You can google it.

Drag is a performance, like spiderman, or elsa, or clowning

Yes and my son is so confused if men can really spin webs after a Spiderman was at a birthday party, or are rabbits really in hats after seeing a clown.

Kids are so confused stop all the characters, save our children.

Shouldn't this be in the Entertainment topic forum?

Are women allowed to cancel drag queens for cultural appropriation?

So then you really mean blurring boundaries of gender?

No, they're lower in the hierarchy without a little intersectionality thrown in.

It's a clever move by some of these men.

No. Most ‘progressive’ liberals have a very high tolerance for misogyny.

Except no one will try to implant spider web makers into your son’s wrists if he says he’s spider man. But if he says he’s actually a girl instead of a boy, there are people happy to transition him.

No one has explained how drag shows where performers dance to Cher, Beyonce, and Dolly is misogyny. Saying it is isn't evidence or an argument.

Keep in mine drag queens love these performers because they are naturally over the top feminine. Does that mean Dolly, Cher, and Bey are also misogynists and unworthy of feminist consideration?
Or--is it maybe juat people using feminism in the most venal way possible as a cloak for their bigotry?

Good god, can we not have an open assault on transgender folks in a thread about drag queens? Is it not possible for you to keep your sh!t to yourself once in awhile?

Agree. But I would go a step further and argue that drag queens are not just males performing femininity, but they are males pantomiming female sexuality. That is what drag queens do, and that is what drag performance is all about. Their personas don't exist in a benign non-sexualized context like a Disney princess. Drag Queens have always blurred the lines between what is and is not acceptable. And DQSH is now blurring boundaries between adult entertainment and child entertainment, between traditionally adult sexual themes and "family-friendly". Teaching your kids that Drag Queens (adult males who perform female sexuality) are for children is very much desensitizing your kids to appropriate boundaries and behavior regarding sex. And your child can't consent.
