    It’s actually very simple. Don’t do sexually explicit shit around children. You are free to do it not in front of children and this law has no bearing on that.

      Why are you defining drag shows as inherently sexually explicit? If a man wears a flowing dress with bloomers underneath, is it sexually explicit?

        You know that’s not what drag shows are. I’ve been to 3 different ones (with a group of a friends, not on my own) and every single one had some serious sexual undertones. The default means of “tipping” was tucking dollar bills down the drag queen’s shirt, or simply tossing it at them like a stripper. They twerked with very revealing clothing on, etc. I wish you would just be honest about what drag shows actually consist of most of the time. Of course there are outliers but I think the history of drag shows clearly show demonstrate the inherent sexual nature of it all.

          You went to three drag shows for adults. That’s not what it’s like when kids are there. Just like there are plays for adults and plays for kids or bands that play for adults and bands that play for kids. I saw They Might Be Giants in a bar after their children’s album No came out. They swore. A lot. You would go to that show and say they weren’t appropriate for children.

            One of them had children around there was extensive twerking and other sexually explicit material. “That didn’t happen. And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. And if it was, that’s not a big deal”
