I just don't get why they've made drag shows and the trans community their new "policy" agenda. Why would you even care about whether a child sees a man (or woman) in drag?

This is why I struggle to empathize with the modern conservative movement. I just don't get it. They don't use logic or reason, they just attack whatever gives them the ick and I wish I could understand being so sure of something that all evidence points to as being incorrect.

It's also not like it's a new thing. We've had Klinger in MASH, mrs. doubtfire and countless other examples that have long been a part of popular culture. Seeing bugs bunny in a dress trying to seduce Elmer didn't make me either want to be gay or trans or a furry.
