I’m not sure that is legal. And I’m not sure that’s addressing the problem.

I’d make teaching children deviant behavior grooming, and I’d make the penalty 10 years in prison.

They passed a law. It is by definition legal. You sound like a pedo enabler. Jewish by any chance?

There will have to be more clarification for this to be enforced. It can be argued that a comedy show where the actors cross-dress is now outlawed by this. The backlash against drag shows is that it is outwardly sexual by design. This will be more difficult to word in legislation than the current law.

The back lash about drag shows of from them performing in front of children.
