    Read that back to yourself about three times. Seriously. It's an 11 year old child.

    An 11 year old child doing a job that they want to do and if the payment for their job happens to be thrown at them during their performance then so be it.

    This is very subjective though what constitutes "a well adjusted adult". The parents of this child clearly believe they are causing no harm to the child in allowing him to do what he is doing and we won't know if they are making the right or wrong choices for their child by presumably encouraging him to do what he is doing. Only time will tell if what he is doing now will have a negative effect on his life in the long run.

    Happy to concede that what constitutes a well adjusted adult is subjective, but would you not agree exposure to the nightclub scene, sexualisation and drug taking are fairly universally accepted to be corruptive to children, and their early exposure to such things are not conducive to developing well adjusted adults?

    I think you are interpreting their posts correctly.

    I think you would also be interpreting the video linked correctly. This is above and beyond a mere drag queen performance. This is way closer to lap-dancing. The twerking in just shorts is also far beyond drag queen-ism.

    I think you're very wrong to say that there is no sexualisation inherent in the kid's performance, if that is what you are suggesting.

    This is liberal progressives obviously going too far. It is not always obvious when it goes too far. It is in this case.

    What a load of nonsense. Typical anti-American and anti-Trump rubbish.

    If these people were serious about the security of their children, they would not have risked their children's lives travelling thousands of miles across dangerous terrain and sweltering heat. But they did so anyway.

    And there claims of asylum are false. Asylum means seeking refuge in the first country you enter. They not only didn't do that, but they continued to ignore the will of US sovereignty in crossing the border.

    Trump and America have every right to enforce border security and the integrity of the United States. It is not anybody else's fault that these people choose to not only ignore US constitutional law, but the countless warnings they were given.

    Just a mite off topic there, buddy.

    Liberals never know when they've gone too far. They put ideological fanaticism above human life.

    How you can keep saying this stuff without seeing what's wrong with it is insane.

    Throwing money at an 11 year old boy to have him dance and perform for you while dressed as a girl in a gay bar is all fine and above board because he's being fairly reimbursed by said money that's being thrown at him?

    Tis a bit OTT alright but if it's what he wants to do then it's what he wants to do.


    I wanted to drive the car home from school when I was 11, should my parents have let me.

    Are you on a wind-up?

    Horny gay men looking at an 11 year old child doing anything is just never right.

    What if they “want” to have sex? If that’s the job they like.

    I'm on mobile so it would be difficult for me to multi quote previous posts in this thread.

    Allow me to use that multi-quote and then maybe you might see something that's seemingly crystal clear to everyone else.

    in this case equating his performance to that of a stripper in a nightclub that is if I am interpreting their posts correctly.

    Just as an aside please don't say anything that will get you banned, because that will just mean a very fine forum user name is forever gone. Be careful! :(

    He is undertaking a job as professional drag performer:

    "The truth is, Desmond is a professional drag performer. No one forces him to perform, performing is what he loves to do and has always loved to do."

    Correct me if I'm wrong as I have never seen a professional drag performance but, I believe it is the norm for the audience to throw money at the performer during their performance in the US. Therefore this is why the money is being thrown at him and I have no problem with it because it is what is usually done during a drag performance.

    Don't see why Cosmic Horror should be banned for that comment. The other user is openly and freely defending and rationalising this stuff down to the ground so maybe he/she would like it himself/herself. Anyone who would like it would give me bad vibes to tbh.

    No because that would have been illegal and dangerous for you to do.

    You are wrong. Desmond is a child. (See that mark after child. It's a full stop.)

    Any drag shows I've seen , or read about are adult men in drag , not a young child who is exactly that - a child , impressionable , vulnerable , easy to manipulate in wanting to please parents , and others .

    The parents and club owners should be charged with putting a child in danger in this instance.

    And if it wasn't illegal it'd still be dangerous yeah?

    Just like this could still be dangerous for the child's development even though it falls within the law

    Legality is not the arbiter of right/wrong

    Imagine leaving this poster in charge of your children/nephew/nieces. The ''then so be it'' at the end says it all really. Scary.

    A young boy dancing in front of a pack of horny gay men is not also illegal and dangerous?

    You are assuming that everyone at the performance was a "horny gay man" and we do not know if that is the truth or not.

    It was not illegal as they complied with the laws of that state.

    "All of his performances are conducted in accordance with the Dept of Labor's regulations for child performers."

    It's also what is usually done at a lap dance.

    Why do you choose to see it as one but not the other?
