@personz thank you for your feedback.

I am addressing drag queen culture and how it is in appropriate for children. Dressing eight-year-old boys (or girls if you consider beauty pageants) in risque attire and cheering them on while they dance as if though they are strippers is just flat out wrong.


I respect the rights of adults to make their own sexual decisions as I too am a libertarian. However, adults should not be encouraging boys into this behavior any more than they should encourage girls to act like strippers. The goings on at some of these drag queen events are for mature audiences.


Do you have children @personz at what age would you dress them up in skimpy attire and have them dance like strippers for adults? In what world is this okay? Have I stepped into the twilight zone?<br /><br />

I am not anti-gay. 
I am not anti-transgender.
I am not anti-drag queen.
I am anti-drag toddlers and you should be too.

To help you understand even further.
I am not anti-strip club. Yet if I seen
an eight year old at a strip club I'd go
up to the kids daddy and pimp slap
him into next week.

Of course I don't disagree with the protection of children. It's actually where I have trouble with radical libertarianism, social accountability in a world where some want their private property homestead to be their little kingdom.

Of course we agree on the basics. What you have presented are cases which are clearly wrong and I had intended to express agreement with that and your general point.

My deeper reading of your post and the way you say things is a lack of maturity in dealing with the topic and showing some prejudice towards drag queens and others. I presume this is what triggered @sapphic . I'll back this up with an example:

> If transgender drag queens want even more normalization they should stop trying to encourage children to behave in perverted ways.

Sweeping statement which implies this is what all drag queens do. Do you understand how your loose use of language may paint you in a way you don't intend? Or it may show you to harbor prejudice. When people perceive sexual deviance they can often react with _disgust_, which is a very strong and motivating emotion, but it is an emotion.

You do you, I'm not the language police. I'm just stating something which is fairly obvious.

You make a fair point @personz. In fact, I appreciate that you brought that to my attention. I don't like to speak in sweeping generalizations. It can however be an easy trap to fall into. I will correct my mistake.

>~~If transgender drag queens want even more normalization they should stop trying to encourage children to behave in perverted ways.~~

>Drag Queens who encourage children to behave in perverted ways only cause harm to their push for normalization.
