   “Drag can be appropriate for all ages,” Brigitte Bandit, an Austin drag queen who frequently performs at birthday parties, told the @TexasObserver. “It’s simply a way to express yourself and have fun, and why not allow kids to see something like that?” https://www.texasobserver.org/drag-ban-sb-12-aclu-lawsuit/ Another must-read from @oconnell

     What's really more inappropriate for children here? The drag queen or the DJ's ill-fitting bikini?
     
     But weirdly only one of these two will get bullied into suicide for existing in a public space around children

     Have you been to any drag shows at all? I've been to several and none were overtly sexual. Assuming that drag == sexual is the issue that divides so many people.

     @feld @TexasObserver @gabrielarana @oconnell the fact that kids are being involved in activities with overtly sexual themes is far more concerning than anything else. dont throw the token gay under the bus dude.

     @gabrielarana @feld @oconnell @TexasObserver you have no moral high ground when you browbeat the "unsophisticated" with intentionally excessively flamboyant acts and berate them for not understanding.
     this is why everyone hates "the gays", it's those who act so morally superior as they do this kind of shit that dont know better.
     you are the american problem.

     @jeff @feld @oconnell @TexasObserver No one is suggesting kids watch a typical, bawdy drag show, which means they are not being involved in an activity with overtly sexual themes. @texasgop wants people to think anything a drag queens does or wears is sexual. It’s just not true. Unsophisticated viewers are the problem, not the multitalented queens imho

     @feld also, this tactical muddying of the waters right here is just more evidence to support the pro pedo ties to "the gays". stop it.

     You are talking to "Waukesha isn't my backyard" feld. But that does beg the question, do you take your kids to drag shows, feld?

     @feld @gabrielarana @TexasObserver @oconnell Why is your primary concern always the children? You never want to dress up in drag for veterans, for the old folks, for cancer patients. It is always children. It is this incontrovertible fact that even normal people are waking up to.

     The word “existing” means “to be.” If “existing” for trans and drag practitioners places their default state of being around children, then this assessment is further proven: that you want to be around children for the explicit purposes of warping their malleable minds to your perversions and the ideologies built around those perversions.

     These “people” should then not be “bullied into suicide.” They should just be given the old country gravel road massage until they are a bloody, 2.5 mile-long smear across the backroads. You people are sick, and you people are evil.

     drag shows for active service members is a thing:
     
     > The Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada hosted its first drag show in order to boost morale and promote inclusivity and diversity, according to the base. The "Drag-u-Nellis" show was held at the Las Vegas base on June 17. (2021)
     
     drag shows for elderly is a thing (just google it)
     
     drag shows for cancer patients is a thing (also, google it)
