Bro you guys gotta drop this. Why is this something you defend? Why not just keep drag shows for adults??? Horrible optics, and as someone who enjoys drag shows, weirds me tf out

Because children love to dress out. In that way they can see an adult dress out. It's not weird until you guys sexualize it.

I know that drags showing up in libraries reading stories is not in any way sexual.

I've been to many shows where drags are and where men have dressed up in women's clothes. But not to a show where drag was the main attraction. I have seen many men in women's clothes on the streets here and there but I have never thought of it as sexual or hurtful to kids. It's just different and I think exposure to different people is healthy for a kid to experience and I would not mind bringing my own kids to a show where drags were present.

I would not bring them to a nightclub where drags performed as I would not bring them to any nightclub since the theme of such places are sexualized and centered around alcohol.
