Drag Queen Rejects Bill and Defends Shows for Minors (VIDEO)

A drag queen publicly spoke out against a bill that seeks to limit or ban drag performances aimed at minors, arguing that there are no verified statistics proving that children suffer any kind of harm from attending such shows.

During her remarks, she said her position is based both on her faith and her artistic experience. She described herself as a “woman of God” and stated that drag, in her view, is a form of expression that promotes love, joy, and entertainment. According to her, children who attend these events usually leave “laughing and happy,” without any inappropriate situations occurring.

The performer noted that she has taken part in multiple shows designed for audiences of all ages and that, in those cases, organizers always set clear rules. Among them, she mentioned the complete exclusion of sexually explicit content, the selection of songs appropriate for minors, and the prohibition of profanity or hateful messages during performances.

She also assured that those who organize these events understand the importance of keeping children safe and that this concern is shared with parents and authorities. In that sense, she urged lawmakers to oppose the bill, arguing that it is based on a mistaken perception of the content of these family-friendly shows.

Finally, she invited those who have never attended an all-ages drag show to see one before passing judgment. As an example, she described performances focused on humor and comedy, where the entertainment might include scenes such as a drag queen awkwardly dancing to “Let It Go” from the movie Frozen, without offensive or inappropriate elements.

However, from a conservative perspective—supported by the current administration of President Donald Trump—these statements raise serious concern. It is incompatible for shows historically associated with sexualization and ideological activism to be presented as appropriate for minors, regardless of how they are described. For many parents and defenders of traditional values, the issue is not only explicit content, but also the context, symbols, and implicit messages that do not align with healthy child development.

Under a government that has made clear its commitment to protecting children and strengthening the family, these arguments reinforce the need to establish clear boundaries. Childhood is not a space for cultural experimentation or for normalizing debates that belong exclusively to the adult world.
