dirtmayorFederal judge blocks Florida from enforcing ban on minors attending drag shows
AntikThere should be a ban on minors attending church.
And not just because of the dangerous religious indoctrination, but also the documented-a-thousand-times-over child rape.
goatmealwhat you did just now is called whataboutism. there is no number of child rapes by catholic priests that would influence the acceptability for a child to be admitted to an upside down leopard thong show. we cannot just claim that someone else did something worse than what we did, and that it somehow makes what we did okay. it's also problematic because it presents a false choice. we do not have to be both against children being admitted to see men dry humping each other dressed as santa's reindeer and in favor of children being raped by catholic priests.
raccoona_nongrataDrag shows are not inherently sexual, you simply have to look up pictures from the drag storytime events.
This judgement is correct not because it's appropriate to take children to an adult drag show, but because the ban is overly broad and concerned more with demonizing drag performers and lgbt people than it is protecting children.
JustinFTL@goatmeal Hamburger Mary's is a drag/hamburger joint with a family day on Sundays. Drag queens dressed up like Lucy, etc. serve hamburgers and do family-friendly comedy. Is this for all families? Probably not. But politicians should NOT be able to tell me I can't take MY kid there. Especially when I can give consent for my child to see a rated-R movie with obscene amounts of gun violence and death. People having their heads blown off is seriously BETTER for a child to see than a man telling jokes in a dress?
