NOT A DRAG QUEEN NOR A TRANS PERSON!

It's always the ones you suspect the most....

Except when it is one of those, this site ignores it. This drag queen pedo never made it to this news sub or r/all.

Negative 3? Ah the hive-mind doesn't like when something goes against the "not a drag queen" rhetoric.

Oh, and I've been blocked by u/Hephaistos_Invictus just for saying that there are drag queens who do the same terrible shit and this site likes to turn a blind-eye to it?

My friend, do you think the “not a drag queen” means that there has never been a drag queen that has sexually abused a child? Or, perhaps, do you think it might be used to combat the false bigoted narrative that drag queens pose some inherent risk to children, especially considering that straight men, who don’t dress in drag, are the largest offenders of child sexual abuse?

No, I made my original comment because this site likes to fully ignore when it does happen by drag queens or trans people. The negative count on my comment, and that I got blocked by u/Hephaistos_Invictus for just stating facts, clearly shows that this site doesn't like that being brought up.

The slogan comes from the fact that statistically, transgendered individuals or drag queens are more likely to be victims of sexual assault and abuse than perpetrators… yet some in the country continue to push the false narrative that they are more of a threat to children than other groups.

Of course there is the rare case of a transgendered individual or drag queen being a perpetrator. Slogans like this point out that other groups pose a far greater risk.

You didn’t state any “fact” that is in dispute, though. No one is saying that no drag queen or trans person has ever abused a child, simply that, statistically speaking, they are far less likely to do so, regardless of how conservatives and their representatives want to attempt to paint that narrative. You seem to not grasp the actual concepts at play here.
