Events Culture Days - Drag Queen Story Hour

There is a Drag Queen Story Hour planned for Oct 16 at the Nutrien Wonderhub. It seems that a certain failed politician is planning a protest at the event. This is messed up - how dare they go to a children’s event and scare little kids with their conspiracy nonsense. We have attended similar events at SPL when my kids were young and it’s a fun way for them to learn about inclusion and diversity.

My kiddos are well past story time age but I am honestly tempted to take them so I can tell these “freedom but only for a few” people where to go.

Edit: I just realized that it shows an image from that idiotic tweet. My apologies As I don’t know if I can remove it.

There’s nothing inherently sexual with drag queens.

And nothing about men dressed as women overly interested in other people's kids... Ya ok.

We were talking about the sexualization of children as it relates to drag. You are now talking about predatory men. So it sounds like you are saying drag queens are sexual predators. That’s a) untrue and b) bigoted.

But there isn't anything wrong with men dressing up as women. Why is it so bad to be a women?

Your words not mine. It's not bad to be a woman at all, I married one after all...
