Parents object to Drag Queen Story Hour!

 


When most of us were growing up, there were only two gender identities - male or female. The vast majority of people still see it this way and identity as male and female, which is now called 'Cisgender', which corresponds with their birth sex.

If you want to accept it, and I don't, some sources now say that there are 72 gender identities and 78 gender pronouns. Some of the gender identities include: Androgyne, Gender Expansive, Genderfluid, Genderqueer, Non-binary, Omnigender, 'Two Spirit, Pangender, etc.

Ostensibly, 'Drag Queen Story Hour' (DQSH), another import from America, like bubblegum, is supposed to be about "inspiring a love of reading" among children and to encourage them to read. So why do some people feel it's necessary to use a Drag Queen to teach children to read?

Jonathan Hamilt, who co-founded the New York chapter of DQSH, says that the program strives to "instill the imagination and play of gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models "

This social engineering project which seeks to challenge gender stereotypes, respect for diversity, and which promotes an LGBT agenda, might sound like harmless fun, but isn't there a danger that we're going finish up with some highly confused children who are not quite sure what they are, or where they're likely to fit into anything?

I like diversity and eccentricity, but should children of three and four years of age, really be used as guinea pigs in a social engineering laboratory experiment by those who want to promote "queer role models" and proselytise LGBT politics? Some parents are objecting to this kind of propaganda and have started to protest against events of this kind.

The parents aren’t even being asked whether or not they want their children to be exposed to this kind of stuff. The simple reason being, that knowing that most people have more sense than the ideologues that are promoting it, it would quite rightly meet with flat refusal.
