Transgender man wins women's 100 yd and 400 yd freestyle races.

More whataboutery... :rolleyes:

I don't understand you're presenting an argument that your own source is not credible?

I don't understand the particulars of your personal interrogative. What's wrong with your hypothetical made up scenario drag show? If the content is vetted as okay then whats the harm. When a drag show for instance advertises itself as Rated R, it's hard to suggest they're plotting to groom children.

I told you I don't understand your question and explained why.

It just sounds like you're irrationally upset at some preconceived and hyperbolic notion of a drag show and have never actually been to or viewed a drag show, and if you had it's been a thorough googling for the most outlandish examples of ones that are indeed not at all appropriate for kids, and were never marketed for kids.

You also set an impossibly wide goalpost for yourself trying to suggest every drag show on earth is grimy and sexualized. It's an entirely defenseless argument.

You also engage in No True Scots fallacy.

Are you saying you can't beat your wife?

That's a non sequitur and this is all off topic.

Don’t be coming in here with scientific stats. Who do you think you are???

When drag shows are being foisted on pre-teens, often without the knowledge or consent of their parents, it's not irrational, nor is it hyperbolic to call it out for what it is. Sick and underhanded. It takes no time at all to find examples of this, which shows the prevalence of it. Men dressing as women and prancing around the stage, twirking and pretending to be princesses, or popstars in my view says something in their head is broken. I've seen drag events in passing. Had the occasional surprise drag-queen show up as part of an event on holiday and have listened to dozens of interviews over the years. The prevailing reason men dress in drag is because they are exploring their sexuality. So, what is not sexual about that intention?

"It can be a way to safely express oneself. Many use it to explore sexual orientation and gender identity. Others do it because they enjoy the fame and glory of winning. Drag is a powerful symbol in the LGBTQ+ community." Source: Psychiatric Times

Pretend all you like that it's harmless fun, but anything sexualised is not suitable for pre-teens. Anyone who disagrees probably should be locked up and kept far away from children, because there is something broken and possibly dangerous going on there.

Another example where a kids talent show was turned into a full on, sexualised drag event. The idea is to get kids comfortable with abnormal human behaviour and sexuality. A man pretending to be Elsa at story hour is a clear sign of that. He's getting off on being a princess and kids are excited that Elsa is there. I wouldn't be allowing my kids to be around that.

Some examples of said "education":

And as expected, the post is ignored by the person tossing about labels. They either know that this is sick, and are blocking it out, or they approve of it all, yet know that society won't hence why nothing is said.

It has nothing to do with LGBT either, if this was aimed at straight kids it would be just as bad, but supposedly we're all transphobes and bigots for daring to have an issue with this stuff.

provide source for bombastic claim please - “It's honestly like hatred is what you're after.”

You must have missed I googled around and couldn't find any paper of record even on the right wing willing or able to corroborate this. Best I found was a reasonably old Breitbart article about something else, and in that case it was a Teacher's training pamphlet, not a book circulated to kids, something to educate teachers on terms thrown about by children in a US classroom.

You don't know me from adam and it's rich of you to wildly and baselessly insinuate I sexualize and get off on children:

"I am not a racist, but ..."

You do sound like a somewhat transphobic man though.

• How is teaching "about men getting pregnant and women with penises" abusive? It is not, and you have no proof for your assumption. There is proof that not teaching about gender and sex leads to abuse.
• "your ideology is BS and dangerous" -- what does that mean? I can counter this with a witty mirror retort -- "your ideology is BS and dangerous". It is your ideology that is hateful towards groups of people, and you show it directly by trying to make feeble insults to posters here. Chill and re-read your own words: "people can chose to live as they wish"

You're presenting a story from 6 years ago and the PTA president already accepted responsibility for not fully vetting the event.

That's not an incident that a "Dont Say Gay" bill would remedy: any school could still legally organize to bring students to a talent show and a performance such as oh - you gave the example cuties, so why not a kids beauty pageant (see "Sexualizing Children") any entrant to the talent show could present what any parent is free to interpret as erotic or sexual (see the First Amendment).

And I haven't seen any attempts to ban kids beauty pageants from DeSantis or anyone. Or to ban kids from seeing talent shows, or participating in them.
