By that logic you wouldn't get police to do talks at schools. Or fire fighters or sports representatives or whoever else isn't a qualified teacher.

I dont really care about the non certified or not. Why bring adult entertainers to read to kids.Also, did you ask your wife yet or tell her? Go say “Hey honey I think drag queens should read to kids at school.â€
Stop splitting hairs to help out guys who want to dress as women.

You've hit the nail on the head IMO. I'll go further though and suggest that this is about enraging certain people against other certain people, an incendiary topic designed to divide people.
I agree the people who thought this would be funny, probably thought they could make a national issue of it so we could discuss retarded topics like this and have people actually try and defend this stupidity like people here are.
Why do men dressed as women need to come to elementary schools and read to kids? Give me 5 reasons.
Also this was a great post.

I'm sorry, but as a father I would not at all be comfortable with drag queens having 'story time' with any of my kids... Especially at that age(the kids there look like they're anywhere from 1st to 3rd grade.)I know we live in an age where some parents thinks it's acceptable to let their children choose what gender they want to be from birth, but I don't subscribe to that way of thinking. Call me old fashioned, but I am still one of those 'intolerant assholes' who thinks that girls have vaginas and boys have dicks.
That being said, I really don't want to try and explain to my six year old why some random man was wearing high heels, makeup, and a mini skirt to her reading hour AT SCHOOL. The gender identity issue should not be forced down my kids' throats before they're even old enough to grasp what "gender identity" even means.
Is it just men in womens cloths that shouldnt be allowed?
Can a woman dressed in mens cloths like a pair of Wranglers, some Timberlands and a flannel shirt read to kids? What if she's wearing a 5 piece suit and tie with a nice pair of wingtips, is that ok? What about a girl in a football uniform? Can she not tell kids that girls can play too because oh no gender shouldnt be talked about with kids? Or is it just men in dresses that arent allowed?

Why do parents take their kids to pantomimes when it's traditional to have a pantomime dame of a man in drag? And pantomimes are FOR KIDS.
Your deflecting. Why do men dressed as women need to come to public schools and read to kids for story times. I know you don’t honestly think this is ok.
Give me 5 reasons.

Because, just like pantomimes, it could be fun and entertaining for the kids.
Look at all the people in this thread who are insecure with their own gender.
If an entertainer in a costume could convince you—at any age—that you are a different gender than with which you identify, then your gender identity was never that secure to begin with.
If you identify as a man, what could someone possibly say to you to convince you otherwise?

Do you believe this is a good argument or do you recognize that this is a terrible strawman that groups identity age groups into one group and does not recognize at all that small children are impressionable?
It might be a good idea to leave it up to the parent to decide to expose their children to concepts that grown adults thought about, discussed, and discovered about their sexualities. Probably 5-7 is too young to be talking about why Joe likes to put his privates in Bob's butt.

Ah I see, are the drag queens gonna be making balloon animals? Doing a funny dance? You surely didn't just suggest the mere fact a dude in a dress is reading a book would entertain children, so what specifically do you feel will be the thing that entertains them?
