The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Boater: The teaching of explicit sexual instructional material...

Example, please?

Boater: ...drag queen shows presented to children as low as elementary school or the use of a school having a field trip to watch a drag queen show. Please back up your statement with some facts for a change...

You first.

The only article I could find "of a school having a field trip to watch a drag queen show" was an annual Columbia Values Diversity breakfast, an event that celebrates the civil rights legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King that concluded with a drag show in which adult attendees -- as is common in these performances -- tossed dollar bills at lip-syncing dancers who were dressed pretty conservatively (not sexual). As the school noted later: attendees were "not provided specific details of the performances in advance to the event." In short, they didn't know of the show in advance so, no, students were not taken on a field trip to watch a drag queen show.

The only other similar event I found was a Drag Queen Story Hour at Cellar Door Books in Riverside, California. In the audience were four children (with adults). Clearly advertised with the title "Drag Queen Story Hour," it's hard to see how this could offend anyone except people who are on the look-out for ways to be offended. Maybe like that Matt Schlapp fella' who likes to grab other men's genitals and who tried to settle one sexual assault lawsuit with a six-figure settlement before being schallped with two more sexual misconduct charges a few days ago.

Musta' been the drag queens that made him grab other men's genitals.
