Yes I know that trans people have existed forever. Just look at the Royal courts back in the day. Lol.
Just my opinion but as an older guy and hearing complaining from other old people. They just don’t understand why there are drag shows. I guess that’s because drag shows for us were always sexual when we were growing up. It’s always corsets and feathers and crazy makeup and giant hair etc. it was always an adult thing when I was younger. So seeing it for kids now is confusing, especially when it’s under the guise of helping trans kids.
Just makes more sense to me to have everyday regular trans people doing this at the libraries instead. And it would remove some of the apprehension and fears from the older people who grew up with a different opinion of drag. That being it’s for adults mostly

This is the part I’m confused about. Drag has never had anything to do with trans kids?
In fact, one of my frustrations is that during pride all the gigs go to drag queens and only a few go to trans performers (in particular trans PoC). One of the complaints I see most often too is that so much of the queer community is dominated by gay men, and in turn drag, that it leaves the rest of us feeling excluded.
