This is all about what you find acceptable for kids to be exposed to

Where do you draw the lines? Those who find it acceptable, you must have a line as well, it may not be drag queens, but surely its somewhere

So then why is it a problem if some have drawn their line at not having adult entertainers perform shows for kids? (regardless of what form that show takes)

Is it only a problem because those against it don't share the same line in the sand as you do? Who are you to say they can't draw the line in the sand where they want to?

Those against the idea don't have an issue with those of you who haven't set the same line as they did, they're saying "you draw ur line where u want /shrug" their issue is the performance itself not attendees, supporters, or apathetic sideliners
(in general, not talking about how the convo has broken down into personal attacks)

You can support the show, or not support the show, but to attack the opposing side for not sharing your view is just stupid (this goes both ways)

You can even watch a recording of her story time with the North Van library: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1174482669685710

Or read about her on CTV: https://bc.ctvnews.ca/drag-performer...uver-1.6197783

if this is what you're afraid of being in a library then I look forward to your protests and outrage about witches, clowns, cowardly lions (Real lions are NOT cowardly kids, they eat people!), and elves doing story time.

Edit: As has become the norm, anytime one reads "news" that's written by far right it's almost always manufactured outrage like how this article associates a harmless drag queen story time here with some inappropriate for children event in Florida. One google search of the performer would have cleared it up.

OP watch this video on facebook, and then the one you posted that made you feel so much outrage

Compare those two videos

Think for a minute. Don't say or type anything, just think. For 60 seconds.

You are being used.

That's all

No this is not. If you find it unreasonable for your kids, as mentioned previously you can simply decide to not go.

If you want to take it a step up, contact a library representative or your city councillor and share your thoughts as to why you don't agree with the decision and have a reasonable discussion.

This is what people used to do.

This is about a so-called "news" sources with clear agendas misconstruing the situation to trigger outrage in certain groups of weak minded people to start complaining about it online, generation divisive pointless arguments on both sides.

If op simply read that, decided to not take his kids there, and maybe wrote a message voicing his concerns and criticized the decision of the library and the city, this entire shitshow of a thread wouldn't have needed to happen.

The whole drag queen thing is just an excuse to sow division.

Including one of the people standing in a costume unzipping himself with a big red clump falling to the ground in front of children watching.
Just completely inappropriate for children however you want to look at it.

Oh I totally agree, if you actually care about the situation, don't attend, or lodge a protest, write someone, or whatever... Or if you don't really give a damn, complain about it on RS :lol

But attacking one another on their level of parenting, morality, political/religious leaning, etc is just fkn stupid

This post reminds me of one of my rightwing buddies who every time we hang out has to ear-beat me with a story about a school that has a kitty litter box in the bathroom because some kid wants to identify as a cat..

Pretty meh about this overall thread, but I just popped in to say that this is a really stupid way to make your point.

Hitler was a vegetarian (this is a true fact). It's nice to see that vegetarians support the systematic murder of Jews.

^^^ see how stupid that is?

It’s one thing about personal belief and another thing about public decency. There’s a standard on what the public expect to see in public spaces.

If I walk into a women’s change room with my Dong’s hanging because I identify myself as women. That’s forcing personal beliefs onto others. But respecting other people who don’t want to see my private parts has nothing to do pwith personal beliefs.

You really think kids are being fucked by drag queens at/after these shows? If you really want strength of numbers to protect your children, keep them away from priests, high ranking military officers, judges and gym teachers.
You can think it's inappropriate, but to equate it to "grooming" is fucking laughable. All they are trying to do is hope that these kids don't grow up to be bigots like prior generations that think all the "gays and trannies" are immoral.

Jevoha's Witness families do not allow their children to celebrate any holidays in the classroom. They literally take their children out of school for the days they do holiday events.

I guess that's the same thing here?

Parenting is a weird one. Everyone has their opinion on how to parent. As long as you don't try to indoctrinate my kid then we're okay.

I don't think it's accurate to group all drag queens into "adult entertainers" just as not all pole dancers are strippers/adult entertainers. The drag queen in question is little different than a clown or dancer - some of them are inappropriate, some are wholesome, some are "different". Show a kid Rupaul and they wouldn't know he was a man or, in many cases, that he's an "adult" performer. He's just a performer.

Just as I wouldn't expose my kid (or other kids) to an erotic dancer I wouldn't expose them to a sexual drag queen or an Xmas concert full of "sexy" elves but elves, dancers, and drag queens, by themselves, are not harmful. Let's not stereotype drag queens just because conservatives hate gays and tagged them all as sexual deviants. Drag queens exaggerate gender norms first and foremost, then some go sexual.

If it was just one issue I would agree but it's not. This is just the newest issue in a long line of issues they have cried about. We do have members on RS that have supported the proud boys and at least one who knew people who where members.

Just don’t get mad when a transgender drag queen has their schlong in your kids face and you get called a bigot for trying to stop it :woot2:

My town has more than 1 library. also it's one event for a few hours in one part of the library. honda has no kids.

While I do not agree with this for my family, I don't have a problem with others putting this on. Their life their choice, we're in a free country. As long as they're not breaking the law or obnoxiously pushing their ways on people that do not want it, I don't see anything wrong. It's their community event.

Some parents take their kids to a gun show where they're introduced to a rough trick named Jim.

Other parents take their kids to a drag reading show where they're introduced to a rough trick named P e t u n i a.
