Bout time we had a Discord for this!

hey, welcome to all of the lovely new people 😄

If kids are seeing adults having fun dressing up and dancing on tv on things like drag race then some are bound to want to copy- i have no issue with kids wearing clothes of another gender, having fun but when its pushed, made into something else that a kid later will find hard to back out of and / or sexualised.. same with pagents for girls many are too sexualised for kids

Whether or not they are allowed to wear the clothes is unlikely to change whether they come out as gay / trans / straight / whatever in the future- kids dress up, boys should be able to if they want to without it being seen as something more instantly and definately not sexualised at age 10

@Tomas would you let your son do that at a gay bar while being showered with singles like a stripper?

I think he implied that he wouldn't

I think he is just saying there is a difference between a boy playing dress up in private as opposed to being in a position that would objectify him.

Welcome @kaboomical :3

Hi

wonder if there are any females here

We wouldn't be opposed. It's like a man respecting women's rights in a civil way. There's room for all forms and sources of good.

@featherlessbiped there are several women here, including myself c:

Then we are glad to have you

Good is not partial. Humanity includes all humans.

oh nice,

contrary to popular belief, the MRM isn't actually based on misogyny, shocking I know xD

lol

@Tomas >If it was a 10 year old girl, it would have been a moral outrage.

You know what, it's really puritanism causing that. You see in Afghanistan, there's a tradition called 'bacha bazi' which is just like this.. Young Boys dancing in drag for old men,as because it's forbidden to make girls do that.
