Knoxville Mayor attends Drag Queen Christmas

Just another absurdly incorrect take.

As so many have stated, if this was adult only admission, no one cares what they are doing.

But the list of adult males in this thread that really really care about people not respecting these people but don’t really care that these people are preying on kids, is growing .

Really? Because nobody is outraged about parents taking their children to see R rated movies with copious amounts of sexual content.

I think the issue is advertising as “all ages” and “kid friendly.” I’m pretty sure that’s why R-rated movies aren’t getting the rage.
 
As an opinionated independent voter, I vex most if not all of you dogmatic rightists. However, if you really paid attention, you'd realize I agree with you as much if not more than I disagree. This drag queen Christmas is an example. I don't hate drags or LBGT people, their lifestyle is between them and God, who will judge them when He does. Meanwhile, I detest their lifestyle being forced down my and others' throats. That takes all forms, tax dollars used to fund premises or events associated with them. TV shows and movies, and so. I detest it so much, I may soon be without streaming services many take for granted. I contacted HBOMax, Netflix, and HULU to please place a screen advisory for media containing LBGT scenes, so my grandkids and I aren't subjected to them because we had no warning the content would be present. So far, no response from any of them. I have cancelled HBOMax. One more media from Netflix with the nausea content, and away they go. HULU, I haven't tried, though I suspect I will face the same dilemma.

So, it's not about the kids then? It is about the advertising? I haven't seen a single report about unattended kids. I've seen many many posts about these parents are the worst type of scum for subjecting their children to this type of show. Nobody has come close to bashing the parents that take their kids to sexualized movies.

Only real difference I see is that some people are really offended by gayness and want it locked deep in the closet.

No, not really. You’re the only honest person in here. Talk about cowardly. Quit acting like those that don’t agree with are being dishonest with their complaints.

Why would I be outraged? What are the ages of the kids? What is the movie? Do you have examples? I know poor parenting exists, did you believe I thought otherwise?

This is not a R movie, not sure why you keep going there. This has no rating. There is no set standards to even understand it. So not sure why you and others keep using that comparison. With a R movie you can go to IDMB and understand ahead of time what will be seen. I’m sure there are still parents that make poor choices even then, but this isn’t that.

Are you of the belief this show is NOT adult themed? Would you consider a dad that walks up behind his wife bent over at the oven and thrusts his pelvis towards her ass and winks at the kid and says “this is what I am getting later”, while the kids are seated at the dinner table, to be a perverted father that is laying a perverted foundation for his kids in regards to sex? I would.

You need to write PornHub a letter too.

So, gay folks are fine as long you don't have to see them? Sounds very enlightened.

American Pie? Nobody stood outside theatres trying to catch parents taking their underage children into the theatre. That was more sexualized than any pics or vids I have seen of this event.

What are you talking about? I looked at their posters and online media. It didn't say anything about kids or ages.

We also have received a small number of complaints about the show being advertised for “all ages.” To clarify, an earlier version of the marketing copy provided by the promoter that is renting the theatre for the event included that phrase, and we removed it. The approved description of the show is posted currently on the event calendar listing at TennesseeTheatre.com. The current description notes that “parental discretion is advised,

By the Theater’s admission, it absolutely was advertised as an all ages show until people caught wind of it.

Problem is, when you advertise or claim an event is "all ages welcome," it leaves very little room for misunderstanding what that means.

Apparently, you have to search high and low to find that "all ages are welcome," which is far different from "advertising" that it's for all ages or that it's "kid-friendly".

Again, back to the rated R movie example....just because a kid can go doesn't mean that they advertised it for all ages.

So, it was removed.

It was advertised as an all ages show until the Tennessee Theater realized people were aware of that. Period. I searched for all of 2 seconds to find an article that proved it.

Hahahaha, so they corrected a mistake. Why are we still supposed to care then?

You made up this part, as far as I can tell. The quote doesn't say whether or not it actually ended up on any marketing materials that made it to the public.
