Key words: straw man. Guessing almost zero drag shows happen in front of children
If I were to present you evidence of sexually explicit actions happening at a drag show in front of children would you change your mind?
It would be immaterial, because that is already illegal and can be enforced using existing laws without resorting to a broad ban of a particular kind of performance art.
Clarifications in law for grey areas are common. It's very likely people will downplay any sexual activity, as has already happened.
One time, no. Dozens of times, no I wouldn't change my mind that it's basically a non-issue, but I might believe that it's something that actually happens amongst the hundreds of millions of people that exist in my country.
You can find one example of the most insanely uncommon shit ever and it won't mean it's worth talking about for more than 30 seconds per year
What if I found 5 examples? How many do I need before you'll admit maybe I have a point?
If I can go my entire life and see a handful of articles about something happening, I do not think it's some sort of menace to society. Probably because I don't have a hatred of the people involved bubbling underneath every thought I have concerning the issue.
On January 6th alone I received 1000 times more proof I needed that Republicans are fucked up than decades have given me about trans people.
I am confident you're not canvassing the web with attacks against Republicans
You clearly didn't read. Can you?
What evidence threshold do I have to bypass in order for you to believe that it's not "the most insanely uncommon shit ever"
So no. As a Republican, you are proud of your voluntary dyslexia
It's okay, your mind is 100% made up and you refuse to change it for any reason. You do you.
Lol like your mind is open in the slightest
No. It wouldn't. Because you're a prude, and your definition of "sexually explicit actions" is almost certainly over-the-top pearl-clutching nonsense to me.
Would you say simulating jerking off in front of children is a "sexually explicit action"
I don't give a fuck about your video of a drag performer in Essex pretending the microphone is a phallus. Prude elsewhere.
I know you don't. You don't care about children being exposed to sexually explicit things. Thanks for being honest about it. But understand that some people do give a fuck, and you should respect that. You don't even have kids so you don't really get a seat at this table.
ASSUMER. I am done talking the moment someone assumes something about me without any evidence.
I bet I'm right though
I have a kid, and I have taken my kid to Pride events, because I am not a prude. I have taken her to drag queen story hours, because its fun. I grew up fundie evangelical and given a choice between corn-fed closeted authoritarian men trying to indoctrinate my kid to believe God's divine order makes her subserviant to a male/creep into her pants, vs. a drag queen playing on social constructs of sexuality, I'll take the latter every time.
Alright then I consider you a terrible parent if you don't care about them being exposed to sexually explicit material at a young age. I'm not religious, so your whining about that does not mean anything to me. I simply believe that parents have an obligation to shield their children from shit like this, and you disagree.

Those aren't the only two options. You can do neither. Not sure what kind of point you are making. Question, should children be allowed to look at porn?
Yes, you can choose not to take your kids to those events. Versus BAN BAN BAN PERSECUTE BAN FOMENT VIOLENCE and do anything to perpetuate the over-the-top prudishness of a loud minority.
Can you answer the question I asked? Do you draw any line or do you think that children should be able to see everything adults do?
This doesn't ban drag shows or drag queens. It bans sexual themes shows in front of children. Just like how porn is illegal for children to view. You can still have your sexual drag shows, just not with children around. This shouldn't bother you that much.
I'm glad you take comfort in compelling everyone to parent their kids the way you think they should. Can you answer the question? Do you think women should be compelled to implant AR-15s in their wombs so all children are born ready to exercise their 2A rights? Do you draw any lines at compelling everyone to be like you?
