Why do drag queens want audiences of children?

I’m sure you think me a redneck from Texas. Will you break this down for me so I can learn. Just go off my comments that are around, then you’re logic to them so I can be smart like you.

The person I responded to directly above.

Just when I thought I'd seen the Worst..Analogy..Ever... from you people, you continue to raise the bar.
Comparing the Easter Bunny to some fat freaks in fright wigs and clown make-up shaking their butts in front of kids makes sense to you?....
Got it.

It's a matter of perspective. Men dancing in "strange" costumes has been a pretty "normal" thing throughout human existence in many cultures.

Kids sitting on the lap of a person dressed like a rabbit have not.

Anyway, you really haven't given any rational reason why your personal disgust should be binding on others who don't share it.

I've never been to a drag show and I don't care, all I'm saying is little kids should not be exposed to them.

suuuuure

I'm the one saying the parents should decide. The right wingers here want the State to intervene; one even said parents who take their kids to these shows should be arrested.

Get it now?

Then I missed your answer. But in all honesty, you know your posts are not unlike Sonhouse where everything gets lost in there somewhere, a lot of fluff. . Why didn’t you at the very outset just say oh my goodness gracious, parents should always be the ones to decide how to raise their children. Why didn’t you say that?

@JJ-Adams
Tell me, how many drag shows have been done in front of children? 1000? More?

It doesn’t take but one, Sonhouse. Funny, you would say that.

It occurs to me that dressing in bizarre or "norm violating" garb for the express purpose of entertaining children goes back centuries. The obvious example is the clown, who may be male but will be wearing feminine-like clothing items such as wigs, flowers, and also pants and shirts with patterns on them more typically found worn by women.

This whole drag queen flap is ...[text shortened]... their entertainment value for children is every bit as valid and wholesome.

Loosen up, snowflake.

I might just add that the profession of actor, going back as far as Aeschylus and Sophocles, was traditionally all male, males playing all parts: men, women, gods, and goddesses.

Same goes with bluegrass harmonies, some guy sings the 'high' part

There's no harm in child pornography.

LMAO! You can't stop pedaling this BS line, can you?

Progressives refer to such material as "sexual abuse content". Good luck with your continuing effort to label anyone who thinks parents should be able to ignore the dictates of puritans like yourself as a supporter of child sexual abuse.

The point is somewhere between Mrs Doubtfire and child porn is a line, a line which you're unable to acknowledge because you've dug in, and we'll get no legitimate response from you for that reason, just endless dodges.

I already gave a line.

It is you who refuse to give one.

We've been over this and this type of smearing is obviously just a desperation tactic on your part since you have adopted an indefensible position that the State should be able to override the wishes of parents on how to raise their children - for the kids' own good of course. Nor have you presented any limiting principle to such an appalling doctrine.

"I already gave a line."

You have not No1, it fails to address that children can be harmed in other ways than physically, they do not have the capacity to understand what is happening and they do not have the ability to remove themselves from the situation. In my first post I fully admitted to not knowing where the line is and that I usually avoid the age of consent questions for that reason.

Your response if you recall was that there is no line, to which you have back pedaled with an airy fairy as yet undefined 'actual harm' which allows for a 50year old man dressed as a woman to fiddle with a 5 year old boy provided he doesn't tear him a new one.

I will make an admission which departs from one of the oldest message board maxims 'never back down' You have swayed me a great deal towards the free market being the solution to this situation in regard to the grotesque clown trans man genders, not specifically you, as it has prompted reasonable discussion with reasonable people apart from this sewer of left wing morality.

It is immoral, what they are doing, they do it for attention and not out of any consideration for children, they were largely ignored in their drags queer bars so they chose children as a vehicle, to use, children which they cannot have (don't even bother, I know what I mean, and you know what I mean) no matter the cause children should be left out of these games.

And the light bulb moment came when the same principle was applied to the state mandated education system. I am still uneasy with child porn and underage sex that may occur with parental consent, but there are other better forums to continue exploring this than wasting time here with fanatics.

If the opportunity presents itself I hope reasonable people might protest these events wherever possible, these creatures are immoral, what they do is immoral and despicable and those that fail to condemn them are in the same boat.
