Out of all the rebellious role models could they not have gone down a different path? Why inappropriately hyper-sexualised drag queens? Why not a female firefighter, male ballet dancer, a young activist or elite sportsperson?

Is drag even rebellious any more? It seems quite mainstream to me.

My email...
Hi, please can you tell me how you have come to the conclusion that an adult man dressed in hyper sexualised female clothing is appropriate entertainment for children?

You have a public duty to safeguard children and this shows a wanton lack of concern for this duty. 'Drag' as entertainment is based on adult sexual innuendo and is not appropriate for children.

Please cancel these events immediately, and you may want to review whichever staff members consider adult sexualised entertainment appropriate for children.

What is it with Drag Queens!? The Tower of London are doing a LBGT tour led by Drag Raven. Drag is so progressive and ground breaking it's been part of panto for years. Oh and Michael Rosen is there as well.
Is this really all LGB want to be known by after all these years? Is this the height of their cultural achievements. Perhaps the next celebration of Alan Turing should be in drag.
