Conservatives seem to think drag shows are exclusively fully nude erotic stripper shows

None of them are unless you’re going to a strip club. In fact most drag performers wear outfits much more modest that those worn by the female hosts of Fox News programs.

See this for what it is. Drag performers, transgendered & nonbinary folks, and immigrants are some of the least represented people in our society and are the easiest ones to fear monger, bully, spread demagoguery about, and abuse

My idea of a drag show is anything on Fox News. That's a real drag right there.

I watched Bugs Bunny put on dresses and kiss men.

Somehow I survived the trauma and "abuse" and turned out okay.

Death Sentence went to Yale, I believe. Foghorn Leghorn Kennedy went to Harvard where they have the Hasty Pudding Society. A theatrical group that has had cross dressing performers from Day One. And isn’t it always Repukes who accuse liberals of being humorless? 🤔

Just a reminder

Alana "Honey Boo Boo" Thompson and her family was from McIntyre, Georgia.

I don't think they are liberals.

They rose to fame on TLC's reality series Toddlers & Tiaras and were given their own series, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.

On October 24, 2014, TLC cancelled the series after four seasons when cast member June "Mama June" Shannon was seen with Mark Anthony McDaniel, a man who served 10 years in prison after being convicted of aggravated child molestation in 2004 and who is a registered sex offender.

Any questions? 😀

Republican men think that all women are there for their taking (like Trump with his tiktoks) and are threatened by people they may 'want' but can't fuck

A few years back the Red Sox had a manager named Jimy Williams (I always wondered what happened to the other “m”). He used to say, “If a frog had wings he wouldn’t bump his booty.”🤔

But it's ok to take children to an ultimate fight and watch two men brutalize each other on a bloody mat??

It's part of their overall plan (/pipe dream) of returning to a mythical state of "traditional gender roles" where women are firmly in second class and LGBTQIA+ folks stay in the closet, and aren't out offending normal people by existing in public.

More than anything: it’s a marginalized group they think they can score points on with their base of drooling angry zombies by shitting on. I sincerely doubt all but a few even believe their “won’t somebody PLEASE think of the CHILDREN”

They want their base angry and reactionary at the polls, and this is what they’ve cynically chosen to exploit.

Kind of interesting how conservative men see drag queens as a sexual thing. I think that says more about them. Sorry if “it” moved for Ben Shapiro when he saw the video but that’s not their problem.

Can I just throw in how lovely Ritzy Bitz (the queen in the video) is? Here she is with my Dad https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

OMG, the same thing is happening here in Chattanooga. As part of Pride week, there was a family friendly drag show that got our county mayor's panties in a wad.

I’ve been to the Drag Brunch once at the Miami restaurant in question. And living a block from Palace in Miami Beach, was there so many times I can’t even begin to estimate.Anyway, DeSantis threatening to pull the liquor license was so maddening.And the restaurant owner bowed down “we’re so sorry, we won’t do it again.” That pissed me off even more. Fight this crap!!And I wish the mother in question had spoken out “how dare you tell me how I can raise my child”.

And DeSantis has commercials going nonstop with letters from constituents saying “ thank you for restoring and enforcing our freedoms”. So nauseating.
