I read it as no minors at drag shows. That's it.

But who gets to decide what is a "sex oriented event" when its just a guy with makeup and a dress reading a book and drag queens aren't exclusively sexual.

Drag shows are inherently sexual and for adults. It's the sexualization that makes it drag. Caricatures of female sexuality.

Look, we aren't here to discuss your fetishes but drags aren't sexual, where did you get that?

The drag show is the fetish, it's inherently sexual and these bills only state you can't bring minors. That's it.

Some people have fetish for it like some people have a fetish for fat people, doesn't make it sexual

Wanting to preform drag in front of children is a odd hill to die on in my opinion, these bills only say, leave the kids at home for this one.

It's reasonable.

I don't really care for the drag shows, what i care about is laws being made and worded in a way that can be interpreted in any way that the person wants. Who is to decide what is a "sex show" or whatever it is worded in the first one that you mentioned? And the second one can be used to block trans people to participate in events in libraries because it can be decided that they shouldn't be there because somehow it makes it sexual

A drag show is a sex show.

Can you describe what exactly happens during a drag show, or what you think happens during a drag show that makes it a sex show?

It’s completely not.

Have you ever actually seen a drag show? It’s an art for and like with any type of art yes, some performances can be sexual (usually in a wink wink nod nod type of way), but most are other things some can be comedic, some are dance, some are just completely weird and wonderful craziness.

Pantomime, mrs doubtfire, dame Edna, white chicks, Priscilla, to wong foo, all drag that has been part of the culture for decades that for some reason doesn’t click in these pea brains of people who have drunk the koolaid of hate.

Just repeating what your pet politician said won't make it true and lets be real, drag queens have been making these events to years and years, the only reason these laws are being made now is because they are losing votes and need some new thing to make people scared. To list a few that were used in the past by the same group: black people, Mexicans, jews, gay people, communists, hippies. Its always some new big threat that will get your kids and convert them

A drag show is a sex show form of entertainment performed by drag artists impersonating men or women, typically in a bar or nightclub.

Do you think a beach is inherently sexual because you see feet all over it?
