- Tennessee has recently passed a law restricting “adult cabaret performances”, essentially drag shows in public places or in front of kids. But now, other US states are looking to do the same.

Why aren't they in NURSING homes then?
Exactly!
too late to GROOM senior citizens.
Because most old people are homophobic 🤷♀️
@@ganymededarling old people are un-corrupted by woke depravity. old people possess wisdom and discernment - they recognize perversion and will warn others.
Because they grew up before the brainwashing @@ganymededarling
Better question would be, why do drags feel the need to perform in front of kids in such a large scale?
It's no different than a clown, as far dressing up and putting on makeup. As you can see, they are completely covered up and not twerking in front of children. No harm.
Even better question is, why is this now a problem? Its not like drag queens are a brand new thing. I guess its also time to ban Mrs. Doubtfire, all of the Madea productions, RuPaul's Drag Show... Where's the line? Let's ban all costumes? Lets ban wigs and makeup? Let's be honest; no one actually cares - just like the bathroom bills. It's just another step at continuing to marginalize people most different from the white straight American ideals. Another nothingburger led by feelings instead of facts. Meanwhile kids are getting dumber because we spend more money fighting dumb crap like this instead of illiteracy or childhood hunger/obesity, etc.
how is a person simply wearing drag while reading not appropriate?
You realize that not all drag shows actually have sexually suggestive content, right? My girlfriend ran a couple for her students, and there was nothing even remotely sexual about *any* of it -- and that was for college-age students!
Oh right, you're one of those shitheads who equates drag with being trans and being trans with being a predator, aren't you?
Exactly.. why do the drag queens men who look like plastic dragons in garb want to perform in front of kids
Good question.
For those who are not from the USA, the simple explanation is that there is a political party that it always has to have something to fear distracting you from the reality that they don't have anything to improve your life.
Man you really need some help with your grammar.
Lol
Excuse me. I do t believe drag queens are an improvement in our social libraries and schools where children see these leud acts men dressed up like women
Im not from US, and it looks bizarre as hell with all these drag shows.
@@DrCalviny that's because you don't like people who don't abide by your views on gender expression.
It's simply not appropriate for kids. Also include the shows being held in private with stripper poles and sexually suggested grinding etc that's where the problem lies. Boundaries always get pushed beyond what's reasonable. NO!

@@unnamedenemy9 how did you not understand what I said? Those are the examples used to portray it as okay to us via the media but that doesn't at all represent the range of "performances" that are actually happening in front of kids. They and you are happily misleading people in regards to what the backlash is about Storytime is 1 element while there's plenty of evidence available showing it goes far beyond that. Actual stripper performances with children throwing money at them!? Drag acts as far as I know wear provocative clothing too right? Are stockings and bulging private areas child friendly attire? What exactly are you defending and why MUST kids be exposed to this in your opinion? That's a genuine question
@@unnamedenemy9 you said yourself not all. That's means some and as I said boundaries always get pushed beyond reason
@@leroy8206 guy, what the *actual* fuck kind of drag performances do you think are put on for all ages audiences?
"as I said boundaries always get pushed beyond reason" -- considering your concept of "beyond reason" appear to be "men wearing dresses anywhere near children," it sounds less like you have an issue with the nature of the performances themselves than you do with the mere fact that people are in drag at all.
@@leroy8206 how is drag different from literally any other performing arts style then.
I worked nightclubs and burlesque and cabaret clubs for years in my early adulthood. Drag was and is and will always be a joke. It started as a joke in gay clubs and that is where it needs to stay.
Club culture is not for kids, and if you're going to argue with me about your right to dress up in lingerie as a man and perform for little children I will invoke my right of 2A.
We can all coexist, except you will exist in the dark past 9pm behind a door rated 18+
Yessir/ma'am
Exactly. 💯%!!!
because they target children.

Oh right, you don't care about the facts, you just slander people as predators.
@@unnamedenemy9 cut & paste groomer begone.
@@unnamedenemy9 back to spirit cooking you troll.
But the people who brought the children there are the parents
@@dennyden7612 not knowing what depravity awaits their kids . or the parents are groomers themselves.
Leave our kids alone!
Conflating drag shows and drag story hours!
Many things just aren’t for kids. We shouldn’t try to make them for kids. Just like you don’t bring your kids to an adult comedy show or an adult burlesque show (or you shouldn’t). It’s not being woke, it’s overexposure that leads to compromised safety for the children.
I know it’s been politicized - it shouldn’t have to be. It’s completely missing the point and people who push in either direction need to drop the kids off before they go and drop them out of the whole debate.
Drag doesn’t have anything to do with gender roles - drag isn’t gender specific. It’s not usually a cis thing, but that’s not the point. The point is not to stop children from seeing or being influenced by the appearance of someone dressed in drag. Transgender is not drag. Drag is a completely different thing. It’s about big adult persona and performances that aren’t meant for children.
But drag isn't always for just for adult entertainment. Like the reporter said, there are age appropriate shows. Fully covered up, not twerking, and teaching children to BE THEMSELVES. That's all. I've even seen drag magic shows and karaoke and it's so much fun. Besides, drag has been in front of children for decades. Don't choose now to complain. Bugs Bunny, Tootsie, White Chicks, Madea, Mrs. Doubtfire, SNL, etc. This is nothing. This is just a diversion the right-wing has used to ignore the mass shootings. That's all and I'm smart enough not to fall for it. Are you?
A lot want to have sex with children .. they're predators in the open

@@unnamedenemy9are you joking?
Fun fact: we also have these discussions in Germany and there was an event for kids where one drag Queen called himself "Eric BIG CLIT" like dude don't be shocked when people call that inappropriate and it sheds a bad light on the entire concept
Cuz they messed with kids...
Drag shows for kids is a sickness.
Good for the people of Tennessee.
Those kinds of things are not for children. It's not about politics or hating anyone. It's about protecting children and their innocence.
Different - Race
Different- men dressing up in sexual costumes pretending to be a woman?
I’m a former Republican who lives in Central Florida basically right in the middle of all this nonsense. Outright banning drag shows is so dumb and such a waste of time and money. I think we shouldn’t be sexualizing are kids at all but some of these shows are comedy. They are meant to be funny or serious and have nothing to do with sexualizing kids or converting kids or whatever nonsense people spew. If anything is talking kids into surgery or griming them I’m against it whether it’s straight, gay, trans don’t care sex with kids is disgusting. If it’s not that then who cares ? Why make a big deal out of it ?
The people vehemently protesting drag shows haven't been to a drag show and assume it is something it isn't. It's like knowing that stripclubs exist and therefore wishing to ban ballet under the assumption that all dancing is sexual.
Ban sexual cabaret acts from kids, absolutely. But don't ban drag shows, that is something different.
It might not necessarily be inappropriate for "drag queen's" to read stories for children (depending on the context), but it is definitely completely unnecessary. If you want to read stories to kids (and why would you?) you should do it while wearing your normal day clothes! Like any normal human being would.
Instead of asking why they’ve been banned from performing in front of kids, let’s ask why they WANT to perform in front of kids
🤮
Just... no.
Good they are being banded
Here in Sweden “drag queen” read kid books fore kids in the library!! Nice to se the state take action!!
Why does Sweden government like canada allow these leud performances men dressed up in plastic in tights to perform in front of kids!!! Shame on them
Because JEBUS!!!!
Only in Murica...
“It demonstrates, that everyone is different “.

I'm sorry about the hashtag, it is my only provable trademark.
the people asking why are purposefully acting dumb. DONT DO THAT INFORNT OF KIDS!! END OF. teaching Everyones different?? by showing your adult bodyparts.? wtf the question should be y is SEXUAL Preference casual talk. Keep that shit to yourself
So let's hear the opinions of those who benefit directly from it. So let's ask heroin traffickers if they think it's a bad thing to buy and use heroin.
