The most risqué thing about the event was a neon sign on the bar's wall which said "it's not gonna lick itself"-a message that most certainly went over small children's heads and, in any event, is no worse than things older children might see on TV. Some kids in attendance tipped the drag performers with dollar bills, which-despite its association with strip clubs-is not in itself a sexual thing (we hand dollars to street performers, too, don't we?). The event was swarmed with protesters, despite the fact that the performers were clothed and engaging in nonsexual dancing.

It should be illegal to take children into Drag Queen shows and strip clubs.Īnd there should be no federal funding for any school that intentionally confuses children about gender/sexuality.Īny teacher or school employee caught doing so should be fired and lose all benefits. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R–Ga.)-were recently outraged over reports of a drag show for kids that was held at a Dallas gay bar last weekend.

While it's unclear exactly what "horrifying" events Slaton is responding to, many conservatives-including U.S. "The events of the past weekend were horrifying and show a disturbing trend in which perverted adults are obsessed with sexualizing young children," said Slaton.īut it sure seems like Slaton is the one who's gratuitously sexualizing things here. " I will be filing legislation to address this issue."Ī press release attached to Slaton's tweet says he was moved to act "following several news stories and videos over the weekend in which underage Texas children were subjected to inappropriate sexual content by adults." I would never take my children to a drag show and I know Speaker Dade Phelan and my Republican colleagues wouldn't either," Slaton tweeted on Monday. Bryan Slaton is trying to ban minors from seeing drag queens, in response to a Dallas bar's " Drag the Kids to Pride" event, which it billed as "a family friendly drag show." "It" being absurd and melodramatic culture-warmongering, of course. I regret to inform you that Texas is at it again.
