Senate Bill 12 would have prohibited performers from dancing suggestively or wearing certain prosthetics in front of children. Critics sued the state, saying it violated the First Amendment.
It would be immaterial, because that is already illegal and can be enforced using existing laws without resorting to a broad ban of a particular kind of performance art.
One time, no. Dozens of times, no I wouldn’t change my mind that it’s basically a non-issue, but I might believe that it’s something that actually happens amongst the hundreds of millions of people that exist in my country.
You can find one example of the most insanely uncommon shit ever and it won’t mean it’s worth talking about for more than 30 seconds per year
If I can go my entire life and see a handful of articles about something happening, I do not think it’s some sort of menace to society. Probably because I don’t have a hatred of the people involved bubbling underneath every thought I have concerning the issue.
On January 6th alone I received 1000 times more proof I needed that Republicans are fucked up than decades have given me about trans people.
I am confident you’re not canvassing the web with attacks against Republicans
No. It wouldn’t. Because you’re a prude, and your definition of “sexually explicit actions” is almost certainly over-the-top pearl-clutching nonsense to me.
I know you don’t. You don’t care about children being exposed to sexually explicit things. Thanks for being honest about it. But understand that some people do give a fuck, and you should respect that. You don’t even have kids so you don’t really get a seat at this table.
I have a kid, and I have taken my kid to Pride events, because I am not a prude. I have taken her to drag queen story hours, because its fun. I grew up fundie evangelical and given a choice between corn-fed closeted authoritarian men trying to indoctrinate my kid to believe God’s divine order makes her subserviant to a male/creep into her pants, vs. a drag queen playing on social constructs of sexuality, I’ll take the latter every time.
Key words: straw man. Guessing almost zero drag shows happen in front of children
If I were to present you evidence of sexually explicit actions happening at a drag show in front of children would you change your mind?
It would be immaterial, because that is already illegal and can be enforced using existing laws without resorting to a broad ban of a particular kind of performance art.
Clarifications in law for grey areas are common. It’s very likely people will downplay any sexual activity, as has already happened.
If you have such evidence please tell us about it, your claims alone sound absurd.
One time, no. Dozens of times, no I wouldn’t change my mind that it’s basically a non-issue, but I might believe that it’s something that actually happens amongst the hundreds of millions of people that exist in my country.

What if I found 5 examples? How many do I need before you’ll admit maybe I have a point?

You clearly didn’t read. Can you?
What evidence threshold do I have to bypass in order for you to believe that it’s not “the most insanely uncommon shit ever”
So no. As a Republican, you are proud of your voluntary dyslexia
It’s okay, your mind is 100% made up and you refuse to change it for any reason. You do you.
Lol like your mind is open in the slightest
No. It wouldn’t. Because you’re a prude, and your definition of “sexually explicit actions” is almost certainly over-the-top pearl-clutching nonsense to me.
Would you say simulating jerking off in front of children is a “sexually explicit action”
I don’t give a fuck about your video of a drag performer in Essex pretending the microphone is a phallus. Prude elsewhere.
I know you don’t. You don’t care about children being exposed to sexually explicit things. Thanks for being honest about it. But understand that some people do give a fuck, and you should respect that. You don’t even have kids so you don’t really get a seat at this table.
ASSUMER. I am done talking the moment someone assumes something about me without any evidence.
I bet I’m right though
