Some conservative Scrooges are trying to destroy the Christmas spirit in Knoxville and St. Louis in a moral panic about children attending holiday-themed drag shows.
Mind you, these aren't minors who have just wandered into a raunchy performance. These are children who may be taken voluntarily by parents to a drag show. And while parents may be permitted to expose their children to all sorts of sex, violence, and nudity by bringing them to R-rated movies, getting too close to a dude in women's clothes is causing some, well, pearl-clutching.
