    It’s one of the pet conservative conspiracy/culture war issues right now. They’re claiming that drag performance is synonymous with burlesque or stripping, and thus having people in drag in the same zip code as minors is sexual abuse. It’s part of their assault in trans rights, as they’re equating drag with trans people, and saying that being trans is inherently sexual. It’s all a load of bullshit.

      Exactly. What drag queen story hours is really: “A guy dressed as a princess reads a fairy tale book to little kids. The kids enjoy the ‘princess’ reading the story to them.”

      What conservatives imagine it to be: “A guy dressed as a woman does a strip tease while reading The Joy of Sex. Meanwhile, images from a XXX movie flash in the background as the kids’ minds are warped.”
