Gee. I guess there really are people in this world who consider lots of bad language from drag queens fun, entertaining and appropriate for a 10 YO.

You set a really low bar.

The performer looked down at the sidewalk and realized the, er, activities were no longer contained in the venue and that he had just confused a little kid. He broke character and apologized.

DD had no comment so I didn't perform a post-mortem of the experience. But I didn't find that fun or funny. Chacun a son gout, I guess?


You saw a woman doing drag? That happens but it's not very common.


Implants != woman


Drag queens that are men do not get breast implants.

Is it celebrating? Mocking? Exploiting?


Mocking mostly, borderline exploitative.


It just seems a bit anachronistic in this day and age. Who really considers this sort of thing a naughty thrill anymore? Drag has gone so mainstream, it's at the public library.

I am not PP however I’d take a five year old. I’d take whoever wants to go

What I would not do is send my kids to church? Just last week alone every day in the us a preacher or a pastor raped or groomed children that is a fact. Not like the news is not showing this .

Drag weens are happy and fun.

Churches spew hate and should be taxed tired of the religious right crap . Fact churches abuse kids not drag queens


People decide to do things not churches. George Santos is a drag queen who has lied, stolen money, and who knows what else. Do all drag queens do the same? No.

I would never take my child to any event designed for adults that includes adult language and topics.
