   @waltercool I mean, if it's explicitly sexual in nature and in a public setting (EG: Not a private environment, 18+ venue, etc..) then yeah, fair.
   It just starts getting iffy when we get into semantics: What's "sexually explicit?" What's "Drag?" What parameters are we using, who is defining those parameters, and how literally would we apply them?
   Plus I feel like that's a responsibility of the parents, not the government, but that's another topic.
   I just worry that when they start doing this to drag they could just as easily start extending it to other stuff.

     @waltercool I don't know, I don't like that they're using "think of the children" as their justification to ban something, and it's working; it sets a bad precedent.
     I'm pretty much fine with the death penalty for actual pedophilia, but drag performances, even when they're sexual in nature, shouldn't be anywhere in that same conversation, even if it is around children.

     @Indigo Yeah, I mean, it's a sex offense, not child rape.
     
     Still, drag queen performance in front of small kids must be considered as sex offenders, just like any pervert at street
