Why do people who dress in drag need to be around young kids?

Why shouldn’t they? It’s essentially a person in a costume. It’s fun and whimsical. If you’re upset about drag shows then you must be upset about Disney World and Halloween too

Because some kids find it fun, like women who dress up as princesses.

If yours don't, don't take them.

The kids are rarely the ones making the choice here. It's not like kids are being offered a choice of a guy in a dinosaur costume and a drag queen and regularly choosing drag queens.

Librarians aren't monsters, if kids were sitting there crying because their parents were forcing them to attend, they'd stop hosting these events.

You have anything to back up that no kids are scared or uncomfortable?

But again, this is not the kids choosing this form of entertainment, it's the parents. To use your own logic, if kids adored Drag performers more than other entertainment, there would be many businesses that capitalized on that.

Do you have children?

May as well just argue with yourself if you're going to put words in my mouth.

Have a great day!

I didn't put words in your mouth. Did I quote you or paraphrase your comment?

I used similar logic
