The Ben Shapiro Show - Drag Queens Read Stories To Children - The Ben Shapiro Radio Show

A drag queen read to preschoolers wearing a Spongebob cut-off t-shirt with midriff exposed, a pink miniskirt, rainbow ankle socks, and a black spiked heel that went above 6 inches. The wig he wore was mermaid style, crimping in the color of bright orange, and makeup that was far too much under the neon lights. The drag queen strode in suggestively past the children, sitting down in a chair before several preschool-aged girls with his legs spread wide, exposing his nylon-covered crotch in front of children sitting at eye level. There were some 20+ adults in attendance. Some of the fathers who were there quickly left after they saw the performer themselves. And, by the way, the Hennepin County Library told The Blaze that the program is a relatively new program and is unfortunately making mistakes. Who could have foreseen? Who could ve foreseen it? Who could not have anticipated it? Maybe because it s pretty perverse. This is not about the protection of the innocence of children or making children open-minded. When you re utilizing sexualized imagery in order to twist children to a political point of view, that is not to the benefit of children who don t understand what the hell is going on. And also, what the left would like, is: No raising your child to be a boy if he at any point expresses that he believes he's a girl. No, no, if he actually believes he s a girl, or that he should be a girl? Is this seem kind of perverse to you, maybe because maybe because it's pretty perverse? Maybe because he's not? Or because he doesn't understand what s going on, you don't understand that? or maybe because he thinks he's just not ? or he doesn t understand that he s not supposed to be a girl or and he thinks that s a girl in the . is not but he's ? Well, who could have guessed that that s not allowed to be right? in public by the government because he s not allowed at all? and so why not in a women s bathroom or a boy or can he if he s really a girl ? and so on can he not be ? And so on?

00:00:00.000 It is pretty amazing.

00:00:01.000 There is this whole controversy.

00:00:02.000 We talked about it yesterday on the show in Canada over a feminist named Megan Murphy. 1.00

00:00:05.000 She gave a speech at a Toronto library in which she maintained that men are men and women are women.

00:00:10.000 I know.

00:00:10.000 Huge, huge news.

00:00:12.000 Hundreds of protesters showed up.

00:00:13.000 The mayor of Toronto condemned the library for allowing her to speak.

00:00:17.000 So, many on the left would like libraries not to sponsor speeches by feminists who say that men should not be able to enter women's restrooms or women's locker rooms. 1.00

00:00:25.000 But, libraries are praised for holding drag queen story hour even if things go wildly wrong.

00:00:31.000 There's a blogger named Ann Taylor, she's writing at Caffeinated Thoughts. 0.64

00:00:33.000 She attended an October 17th event at Hennepin County Country Library and shared photos online of a drag queen's exposed crotch. 0.99

00:00:42.000 According to Taylor, a drag queen showed up to read to small preschool children, wearing a sleeveless cut-off t-shirt resembling SpongeBob SquarePants with midriff exposed, a pink miniskirt, rainbow ankle socks, a black spiked heel that went above six inches. 0.98

00:00:55.000 The wig he wore was mermaid style, crimping in the color of bright orange and makeup that was far too much under the neon lights.

00:01:00.000 The drag queen strode in suggestively past the children, sitting down in a chair before several preschool-aged girls with his legs spread wide, exposing his nylon-covered crotch in front of children sitting at eye level. 0.99

00:01:10.000 We noticed he did this often while reading nervously before the children.

00:01:14.000 There were some 20-plus adults in attendance.

00:01:16.000 Some of the fathers who were there, she said, quickly left after they saw the performer themselves.

00:01:20.000 There were about 22 children ranging in age from infants and toddlers into elementary school.

00:01:24.000 So, just to make clear, what the left would like, no speeches at libraries about men being men and women being women.

00:01:31.000 No raising your child to be a boy if he at any point expresses that he believes he's a girl.

00:01:37.000 Remove the child from the home. 0.95

00:01:38.000 And also, very good to have events at libraries with sexualized drag queens parading themselves in front of small children who don't understand what the hell is going on. 1.00

00:01:49.000 Does this seem kind of perverse to you? 0.88

00:01:51.000 Maybe because it's pretty perverse.

00:01:52.000 Maybe because it's exploitation of children. 0.84

00:01:55.000 This is not about the protection of the innocence of children or making children open-minded.

00:01:59.000 When you are utilizing sexualized imagery in order to twist children to a political point of view and use them as props, that is not to the benefit of children.

00:02:08.000 By the way, the Hennepin County Library told The Blaze that the program is relatively new and is unfortunately making mistakes.

00:02:15.000 Who could have foreseen?
