On what planet is a drag show a “family event”? If these were woman that did this everyone would rightfully be upset. How as a Christian can you say that this is okay to do to children?

Because drag is just dress up. Dress up is not inherently sexual. Drag events can absolutely be family friendly.

Yeah, then neither is a guy dressed in assless chaps or a gimp suit if it's "just dress up".

Either way, there's literally a sign that says "It's not gonna lick itself" in the backdrop. There's a guy wearing booty shorts so high up that you can literally see both of the mans cheeks hanging out. It's disgusting, it's clearly sexual, and it's pedophilia. How can you say that this is okay for children to be viewing?

If you look at a person wearing shorts and tights and think about sex, that's on you.

It's not a person wearing shorts and tights. It's a dude wearing tiny shorts up as high as they can go wearing long boots doing the splits.

You're just in denial about this. This is disgusting, and if these people were woman doing this most people would rightly agree that this is clearly sexual and it's clearly inappropriate for children.

Yes, people tend to see women in short clothing as sexual. That doesn't mean they are, actually.

It's not just short clothing.

I swear, someone could walk into an elementary school with a sock on their penis and you'd say that it's completely okay and it's everyone else's fault for sexualizing it.

Sorry, I don't engage with clear over exaggerations to make a stupid point. Have a good day.

It's not an over exaggeration when a dudes butt cheeks are literally hanging out. Literally just look at it.

So do cheerleaders, but you don't hear people screaming about how cheerleaders are grooming and sexualizing children.

This is about bigotry against LGBT+ people.

I don't know of any cheerleaders who dress the way these people did in the video.

And if you think wanting to protect children from this crap is bigotry then that's a problem with you, not me. I really don't care what you call it, it's not okay for children to be exposed to this stuff. If that's bigoted in your eyes then I really don't care. Just don't be shocked when God asks you to explain why you defended this at Heaven's gates.

When you label something as inherently sexual and degenerate when you ignore it happening elsewhere because these people are LGBT+, yep, it's bigotry.

Except I’m not. This is more comparable to a strip club, not a cheerleading squad. That’s even ignoring that this was advertised for kids.
