Drag shows are not banned, nor were they ever intended to be banned. What was intended was keeping kids from seeing or participating in things that are overtly sexual in nature, especially when they are directed at children.

Put a man in a ridiculous wig, makeup, and an evening gown and let him lip sync to madonna all day long. Singing or acting while dressed like a lady goes back to the Greeks (ok. Maybe not the best example... back to Shakespeare anyways)

If you can't do that without simulating multiple sex acts or exposing body parts, maybe you're just a crap performer.

Some of our most famous comedians were men in drag. Milton Berle and Flip Wilson.

Except they were making fun of women, not idolizing them.

Wait….should we ban it all, then? I mean, we’re always told that “blackface” is bad because they’re making fun of blacks (another thing I question).

Weird how the liberals think that it’s absolutely wonderful to watch men stand up in front of toddlers and denigrate women. Like the “media” turd rollers would say, “It’s a real game changer.”
