SUBTITLE: Lawmakers in Missouri and Tennessee have introduced bills that could put librarians in prison for hosting Drag Queen Story Hour events at public libraries.
On Monday afternoon, nearly 100 kindergarten students crowded into the Tompkins Square Library in New York City’s trendy East Village neighborhood as two glamorous drag queens read them children’s books during a Drag Queen Story Hour event.
Jackie Cox and Jan — two contestants from the upcoming season of VH1’s hit show “RuPaul’s Drag Race” — fielded questions such as “Are you a boy or a girl?” and “Why does your voice sound like that?” with a smile, all while serving looks and an important lesson about how fabulousness comes in all different forms.
“I think that it’s good to get kids at a young age to realize that everyone is different, and as long as you’re not hurting or harming anyone, we can all get along in this world,” Jan, 26, told NBC News.
Jan, whose real name is Charlie Mantione, said a big misconception about drag is that it’s just about nightlife.
“At its core, it’s entertainment,” she said. “We obviously have things we do in our nightlife act that might not be suitable for kids, but we also can come here and read stories to kids and connect with them.”
Drag Queen Story Hour, which started in San Francisco in 2015 and has since become a global phenomenon with events from Oklahoma to Tokyo, has recently found itself in the crosshairs of conservative lawmakers. In at least two states, Missouri and Tennessee, Republicans have proposed bills seeking to ban the event from public libraries.

These perverts could have had the kids riveted if they had shown them photos of their rectal syphilis.
People need to keep these faggot freaks away from their children by any means necessary. Enough is enough.
causing a child confusion is doing them harm.
if they cared about children, they would see the harm.

That’s some unbiased reporting right there...
No sir!
You don’t look like a girl,.
I said no sir!
Even if your hair you do curl.
Keep away, sir!
From these impressionable kids,
There’s a coming day when the Lord will make you wish you ... never ... did.
We’re talking judgment,
No one lives to themself,
You can’t make it,
By dressing up like a miss,
It is your call,
If you repent or not,
But just don’t teach your crap to those tots!
It’ll be no fun to be standing where you are,
You can’t drive away in even the fastest car,
A millstone would have been a better choice,
Than leading them down this course!
Went to Drag Queen Bingo at a local bar last weekend. There were no kids (it was a bar). They are mental.
'Why are you allowing the people who don't have children to determine what children should be exposed to?'
Don't ask in anger. That just polarizes them and makes them defensive. Have them go on record why they believe the people who don't have children should have more power over what children are exposed to than the parents of the children.
You should have said Bingo when you didn’t and when called on it said your Bingo card was dressed up as Bingo and they were Transbingophobic to not let the card win.
effing sick. Then again, there are Freepers on forum who have homo “friends”.
It’s time to push back against these freaks.
“I think that it’s good to get kids at a young age” - Drag Queen Charlie Mantione
I saw the headline “Drag Race Stars” and was going to read the article. I only needed to go a few words further to find out that the story was not about “Street Outlaws”.
The right headline should read Republicans slam drag queen story hours.”
Then again, in a sane world, “drag queen story hour” would be a non sequitor.
“I think it’s good to get children at an early age”
I bet.
-——You should have said Bingo when you didn’t and when called on it said your Bingo card was dressed up as Bingo and they were Transbingophobic to not let the card win.——
Some drunk yelled out BINGO trying to be cute.
I actually won the very first game. My sister in law won the very last game. There were around 100 people there.
