You don't understand, that's good wholesome sexualization designed to help the local evangelical preachers pick out their next victims.
“They could still have a show and if it didn’t have, you know, nudity or partial nudity, as already is outlined in statute, or any of those things, then they can still have one,” he said. “Like a drag queen story hour, for instance, as long as they weren’t performing in those those type of ways or reading from materials that contained that kind of content.”

These guys should be forced to attend an actual drag show before they have any business restricting them. >

I've never seen nudity in a drag show.
These people are still reacting to that falsified video.
What the fuck do straight people think goes on in gay bars?
If you want to ban a form of self-expression then maybe you should observe it first. >

Gay public sex 1000000% happens in gay bars.
I’m a gay man and have seen a lot of things in gay bars. Never seen a drag queen take his dick out while performing, but I’ve seen other things.
San Francisco is renowned for their public sex in gay bars. The Powerhouse, a gay bar near Folsom, has a hidden back room where guys go to fuck [NSFW]. Last time I was in The Eagle there was dick sucking and ass eating by the bar (this was when Monkey Pox was still bad too). The first time I went to Club OMG in SF there was literally an orgy out in the open. But SF isn’t the only place; in Chicago, there’s the Jackhammer, in New York, there’s The Cock. In most major cities, there’s a cruising area of sorts.
There’s no denying it. Public sex happens in gay bars. If you’ve never seen it, it’s probably because you’re straight. Unfortunately most gay bars tend to attract straight women as customers due to the popularity of RuPaul’s Drag Race so tend to be pretty conservative with their gayness. >

That shit happens at some places. It's not something you'll find at most establishments. >

It’s definitely happening at gay bars, which is the point. I’ve seen it myself, let’s not act innocent. Even in establishments where there isn’t a backroom typically has a kink night where guys wear fetish gear and handkerchief symbolic of their kinks. Let’s not pretend gay bars aren’t sexual >

According to previous comments you live in Dallas, Texas. There's 100% gay sex happening in public there. How do I know? I've seen it this previous summer. Go to Reverchon Park at night and you'll see dozens of guys lurking in the dark on top of the hill looking to hook up. Guys were fucking in the dark there. Not to mention there's Club Dallas, a literal gay bathhouse where guys fuck wherever they want there. I should know, I did it myself too.
If you're not a gay man, it's no surprise if you're not familiar with this element of culture. Texas is incredibly conservative itself. I do, however, remember a story from this summer over outrage over a "drag for kids event," at Mr. Misster. While drag queens performed for/with children there was a sign that said "It's not going to lick itself," in the background- which caused the most uproar.
Texas' gay scene is definitely not innocent. >

Hey, i've got a crazy idea. If you don't like drag shows, don't go to the drag shows. I mean, it seems deceptively simple but is apparently truly arcane in its complexity. >

Conservatives, well, authoritarians, really, don’t trust people to make decisions for themselves. They see the average person as weak willed, corrupt, stupid, and are just one or two steps away from total degeneracy. To them, modern society is just Sodom and Gomorrah part deux. 
They don’t even need to especially religious to have that mindset, just a fervent, rigid idea of how the world “ought” to be, and the anger that their expectations are constantly disappointed. They hate just about everyone and think we need to kept in line by the iron grip of “strong men,” to keep from becoming animals. >

So they suffer from projection. >

As is tradition >

How does this not violate freedom of expression and freedom of association? >

Conservatives just want a more traditional dress code where men are in full suits or clothing made entirely out of an American flag, and women need to wear long flowing dresses. And actually, may as well just cover their faces…to make it simple they can just wear black from head to toe. Maybe they shouldn’t go to university either anymore… /s >

You make some good points. They could call themselves the "Students" and travel the country enforcing good, Christian values. They can even stock up on rocks and pool acid should some women become too uppity
/s >

"Small" government in action >

I’m sure there is a lot more pressing issues then banning drag shows >

Like Mark Meadows that is registered to vote in 3 states. 
NY 03 congressman elect George Santos who has lied about everything from his grandfather to college to donations toward animal rescue.
AZ wasted 100 million on shipping containers at the US Border 
Like crimes and gop bullshit like above.... >

It's a shame all these folks weren't around for GG Alin. They woulda loved him. >

We could use more punk >

My question is drag shows are considered sexual and grooming childen. Explain to me how beauty pageant for 4, 5 6 years isnt grooming them? Forcing little girls to wear heavy make up and dress up like a young women along with heels appear to groom children more for pedophile. Dont even get me started with cheer leading. During a local Football team I took my grandmother her mom was helping out in confession. Well low and behold! There were girls 13, 14, 15 moving body parts so fast I lost track. Some of dancers were grinding up against the male cheerleaders rubbing their legs against each other. I have seen Drag shows, nothing in those shows could compare to the soft porn dances being done at our local foot team by cheerleaders I dont hear a peep out of parents when their own daughters and sons are making all the moves even growning and mouning out with each hip thrust. Florida really wants make an issue of drag storyline? Wait til they se the video I took of our cheerleaders. Might be very eye opening
