Paedophile at Drag Queen Story Time

[MenstruatorExtraordinaire]

Houston Public Library is apologizing after a man charged for sexually assaulting a child was allowed to entertain children at Drag Queen storytime.

Garza was charged with child sex assault in 2008. According to records, his victim was a child under the age of 14 years old.

Turns out that there is a Christian group already suing the Houston Public Library for putting on the drag show in the first place.

This was even before the news of a convicted paedophile being unmasked in its ranks.

Article says his (refuse to call a male paedophile "her") drag name is Tatiana Mala-Niña. Which even my limited Spanish can translate as Tatiana "bad girl". But no red flags here at all, no no... (FFS!)

?

Weird comment.

I think the idea is that as paedophiles exist in the community, known paedophiles should definitely be interacting with lots of children at effects paid for by taxpayers, and where they will be seen as trusted adults.

That's a very good idea.

People are so mean about child sex offenders aren't they. Trying to stop them from doing stuff that presents them as safe and trusted to kids. If anything, maybe we need more of this, I'd say. Peadophiles are people too!

Paedophilies are everywhere, so just chill. Normalise them, give them taxpayer funded access to kids - why not? They have rights too!

Yup, it's been a controversial event all right.

This latest news ain't gonna help.

your kids will be seen by paedophiles every day when walking down the street.This is no different.

Eh?

Could you you explain exactly what you mean by this stupid remark?

There’s disgusting paedophila phobia on this forum. You’re all a bunch of Perfs.

I have literally no idea what the aim of getting men dressed as sexualised caricatures of women to read to kids is.

This is from a feminist rather than right wing perspective though.

Although I suppose it's no different to pantomimes dames who I suppose most people are too used to, to think, hold on what is this fuckery?

I've always been uncomfortable with it since I was small, and in the 80s, men dressing as women for laughs was considered top entertainment.

Well it had to happen, in plain sight. Wtf

I think scarlet means that being unable to avoid a non-obvious paedophile seeing your child walk past in the street is exactly the same as allowing a convicted paedophile in sexualised woman-face with a child-sexualising porny "drag name" to be presented as perfectly normal and indeed positive to your child, so let's go ahead with that.

Scarlet also thinks not wanting to donate your uterus to a transwoman so they can get off on the idea of being made pregnant (should this become possible, and regardless of the risks) is the same as not wanting to donate lifesaving organs to a black person, so, 'nuff said really.

Scarlet has also now been deleted elsewhere for being a previously banned poster, so I wouldn't give them any further brainspace

There’s a drag queen story time event at a library near me here in the US and some of my more ‘woke’ friends have expressed an interest in going. To me, I can’t understand why kids need to be familiarised with a feature of the night-club scene in the name of ‘inclusion ‘. It’s been made clear many times by the thought police that we should never conflate drag queens and transwomen because it diminishes the transwoman experience or something. So if the drag queens aren’t trans, what is the point of the event?

‘Hey kids, today we’re going to learn about how some grown-up daddies get their thrills out of putting on womanface and prancing around a nightclub in a tight dress and heels while being FABULOUS!! So what did we learn today? Yes, that’s right - never kink-shame, kids! Human sexuality is diverse and wonderful in all its guises!!’

Cue a bunch of puzzled-looking 6 year olds wondering what ‘kink-shaming’ means.

It is a handy way of

Enforcing extreme sex stereotypes and
Affirming the sex hierarchy

To small children

Society loves doing that

Why would you take a young child to an event like that in the first place?

I read that the victim was 8 - just a little kid. So who goes to library story time...?

And then on the huff post ‘good news round up’ is a video of Desmond the child drag act, saying how he makes up all feel safe to be ourselves.

Timelady

I expect because it's on at the library and paid for with public money so parents assume that it's educational etc

Thisneverhappens*

*Exceptwhenitdoes

When DS was quite little he had a real thing about people dressing up. I think he thought it was lying in the first degree.

‘You’re not a banana!’ Street leafleter for fruit bar dressed as a banana
‘Your not the yo-yo bear!’ - Guy in Yo-yo bear getting off bus, I assume on way to job
‘You’re not Charles Dickens!’ - Science museum
‘You - lady you’re not...HER’ (points to portrait in museum) - some other museum

He’d had had a field day in this library (and probably been on a hate list for the rest of his life).

Man who wants to sexually abuse kids:

Option 1. Spend years training to become a trusted professional.

Option 2. Hang around in the bushes looking suspicious near a childrens playground.

Option 3. Put on a wig and a dress and pretend to be a woman/drag queen, then you’ll be given unimpeeded access anywhere you like while being lorded as brave and stunning.

I’m no clairvoyant but I’m pretty sure I can guess which one looks more enticing.

This. None of this is rocket science. All authorities need to do is abide by safeguarding protocols and none of this would happen.

I'll say it again: if you create a sacred caste of people whose motivations cannot be questioned, you destroy safeguarding. Safeguarding is, by nature, sceptical, because being sceptical is what protects children from harm.

Trans people (or non trans drag queens) are no more sacred than Catholic priests. Moreover, if you have a sacred caste absolving members from safeguarding protocols, then abusers will flock to it for the obvious reasons. Safeguarding protects trans people as much as it protects everyone else who works with children, as well as the children themselves. You want the name of any group of people to become synonymous with child abusers? Take them out of safeguarding protocols.

Oh, scarlet. Once again with the false equivalence fallacies.

I am sure I have personally passed by a murderer or two on the street over my lifetime. Does not mean I want or need to invite a murderer on parole over for tea.

Lang has nailed it

Absolutely. Make it unacceptable to challenge people who wear green bobble hats on Tuesdays and before long a lot of predators will have got themselves green bobble hats. This eventually makes it impossible for anyone to wear green bobble hats because they are associated with abuse.

Precisely this. Abusers go where safeguarding is weakest. Want to protect your group from unfounded accusations of abuse? Belt and braces safeguarding is the answer: not shrieks of howdareyouphobia.
