The Question Persists

Okay — a Heritage Foundation guy explained that the problem is about “sexualization of children” so I pointed out that the drag branch Hammer was objecting to had nothing to do with children so the Heritage guy said he just thinks drag as a whole is “abhorrent.” pic.twitter.com/tqQ2CjPMPe

Why is men dressing in “women’s” clothing “abhorrent”?

Shouldn't they be more upset by people dressing up as clowns?

I mean, that is not a person who means to be confused with any child's mother.  (And it makes me wish they'd had this when my daughter was a toddler.  She'd have loved it; or been scared to death.  Santa Claus in the mall still scares her, and she's 30.)  Maybe they just don't like people having fun in public, and entertaining children?

What about men with “women’s” names? Like “Madison” or “Leslie” or “Chris”? Should a man even have a name that is equally a woman’s?

Isn’t this really about “Women are inherently inferior and we must keep it that way!”?

Says a lot more about the observer than what’s being observed.
