This is abuse. What kind of parent takes their baby to a show like this?

I love drag storytime where drag queens come and read children's books to the littluns in libraries but this is absolutely vile.

But why do you love it Noodle? It is part of indoctrinating little children in gender identity ideology, and removing barriers between perversely sexualised looking adults and children.

@Helleofabore are you serious? Someone with a wig, eccentric makeup and an over the top costume is always sexualised? How about clowns? Do they seem sexual to you?

They are generally portraying a sexualised version of women. yes, I am serious. I have been to drag shows myself.

Clowns! Yeah, I think you are missing something.

What part of Lucinda b. hind do you think is not sexualised? How about Ana Bortion? Mis Carriage? What part of Copper Top at the pub that was protested on the weekend where they lifted their shirt and did the splits while children were watching was not sexual?

What part of drag and drag’s represention of women is suitable for children and child centred?

I explained lower down why I love it. I have not once see a 'sexualised' drag queen at a children's story time. Always covered up completely and acting completely appropriately.
I just see it as a person in a costume.

As I said, what has been posted in this thread is disgusting. No one should be showing themselves around children like that and it's vile that this was ever allowed but to the story time I've been to, the drag queen was fully covered in a big fur coat and just reading a kids book.

Gross 🤮 Some parents need their heads testing.

Someone theatrical reading a kids book? It's great! They bring a bit more excitement to the stories they read.
Basically just someone with a costume on. Nothing inappropriate or sexual about it. The pictures shown above are completely inappropriate and exposing children to behaviour that just shouldn't be seen imo.

Would you not have a problem with this man's outfit and his very visible penis when he was reading your child a story?

Don't you think you should?

@Helleofabore I would never take a child to a drag show as I would expect there to be crude humour and other such explicit acts but at a story time, they're usually dressed modestly and literally reading a book.

This reply has been hidden until the MNHQ team can have a look at it.

And so witty too! You sound a bit overwrought.

SouperNoodle · 03/03/2023 23:52

@Clymene yes of course I would. If I ever went to a drag story time and saw the queen dressed like that, I'd turn around and leave.

When my 2 were little there were times when I craved a bit of adult company and entertainment. It never occurred to me to relieve the tedium by watching some bloke doing handstands while showing off his arse cheeks.

I felt the same when stuck at home all day.

I discovered podcasts and LBC. Oddly, I wasn't drawn to drinking in the middle of the day and watching drag cabaret with my breastfed baby.

And was that ‘drag queen’ in a costume that was as a woman? When they were a male?

How is that centring a child?

How is that a positive represention of or empowering to women?

SouperNoodle · 03/03/2023 23:55

An example of a drag story time I've been to.
Both men and women in the act and all covered up.
They read stories about being yourself and then sang kids songs.
My kids loved it.

Like what? Like Aida H Dee? The person responsible for organizing and participating in most of the DQST sessions in the UK?

You don’t seem to know match about the background to those sessions.

That's the guy who founded DQSH.

Who has just set up a fundraiser to pay for his drag queen friend's funeral who served time for multiple rapes of a 14 year old boy. After he was released, he breached his sex offender's order and got a job as a children's gym and dance coach.

When you take your children to DQSH, this is what you're supporting.

Then that women is not a drag queen. She is a costumed performer, but not a drag queen.

The police seem to like arresting middle aged short women, and giving autistic children hate crime convictions, the cowards will be blaming the babies and arresting them for being far right and their hate crimes of phobiasias next whilst saying they have boyfriends! It worked before.

Good question? Why does she need to show her leotard and legs?

Not sexual? Why isn’t her skirt a full dress costume?

anunlikelyseahorse · 04/03/2023 00:06

Is she wearing pants? I thought it looked as if they needed too, but maybe the fuzz is pants & not hair.
I would not want my DC to be eye level with the bottom half of that leotard regardless of XX or XY chromosome haver.

I’m over all of this nonsense regarding gender and sex. I’m convinced these men are nothing but exhibitionists who thrive off shock and seeing how far they can go to make people feel uncomfortable, then they play the victim.

Perhaps you need to stop thinking people who are discussing this don’t know what we are talking about.

Aida H Dee also reads their own book. The cover of which has a depiction of the polyamory flag amongst other flags. Why is that flag there? Particularly when the flag carries the pi symbol (I have yet to see a good reason why, simply representing the letter ‘p’ doesn’t cut it since it was developed after ‘PIE’ was exposed) . And if you don’t know about PIE, the paedophile information exchange, please go and read about it.

Yep, there's a dark and murky underworld hiding behind DQST.
In the USA multiple sex offenders have been found to be involved with it, I posted a link up the thread but if you google 'drag queen story time sex offenders' you can find many stories about it.
I doubt whether it's because drag queens are more likely to be sex offenders, but sex offenders are going to be drawn to things that get people to lower their boundaries. This is just the next step and it's in plain sight because so many people have been groomed to believe (or pretend to) there's nothing sexual about it.
