Nope. The recent bill signed into law raises quite a few questions. All of the sudden, the same people that wanted to force you to put experimental drugs in your system are now saying the new TN law is a violation of free speech. I thought it was \u201cmy body, my choice\u201d? This same group is saying this is an attack on the LGBT community. They\u2019re saying if it isn\u2019t bothering anyone, why do we care what they do. Some are saying it\u2019s a violation of the constitution. So let\u2019s break it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, no one is being forced to change anything about their dress or speech. So that\u2019s out. No one is monitoring or changing anything about sexual orientation. So that\u2019s out. And the constitution provides a representative democracy where we vote leaders in that represent us and make laws to be voted on by the general assembly. So this new law abides perfectly within the US and TN constitution. So that\u2019s out. What is it that is causing controversy?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, for one, the law makes it illegal to perform a drag show in public where children under the age of 18 can be present. It specifically lists the word \u201cobscene.\u201d This would imply things like stripping, sexual actions of a dancer, and lack of clothing. So the drag bus in downtown Nashville, as long as it continues to operate outside of those actions mentioned, will be able to continue its business as normal. Venues like Play will be operating as normal because you must be at least 18 to enter. So the law does not apply to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The purpose of the law is to prevent children from being exposed to obscene shows that are sexual in nature. The newest trend is performing strip shows in libraries for children. That can no longer be an option in Tennessee. When asked about this clarification, sponsors of the bill as well as Governor Lee said just that. This is not aimed at what is currently taking place. It is aimed at what could take place and has taken place in other states. This is entertainment that is sexual in nature. There is literally a psychological term for it, Autogynephilia, or AGP. This is the arousal of a man when he considers or sees himself as a woman. It has recently come out that Lia Thomas, the trans swimmer, has this. Which makes his actions to become a female swimmer all the more malevolent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This new law boils down to one thing, children are under attack by those who wish to indoctrinate children with their adult political views and agendas at any cost. Protecting children should always be a priority in society. They can\u2019t even be admitted into a rated R movie theater. If that\u2019s the standard, then this is no different. There\u2019s a reason that they\u2019re not considered adults until age 18. They can\u2019t make decisions for themselves fully. They are confused about many things. So throwing very complex, sexual behaviors at children only confuses them more. They don\u2019t even consider things of sexual nature until they\u2019ve reached puberty. Research shows that 90% of kids who are confused about their sexual orientation in their early teens reach an understanding of this by age 18 or 19. The research also shows that 80% of them are gay or lesbian. Which begs the question of why are people trying to push 15-year-olds into mutilating their reproductive organs? Doing so is damaging 80% of the gay population. Every 15-year-old I\u2019ve ever known is confused about life in general and everything that comes along with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I agree, if it\u2019s not bothering anyone, why do we care what they do? Good point. It\u2019s not bothering anyone\u2026 until you parade it in front of children. And these issues, transgender surgery for early teens and drag shows in front of children, go together. It is driven by the same evil backbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Again, I hope that the statements are upheld that the law is not intended to apply to current activities but to what could take place. I say that because in order to make public drag shows illegal, they had to classify it in the same area as strip clubs, or cabaret. But most of us feel the same way\u2026have your fun, just don\u2019t put it front of children. And if you are angry about that, then you should have a much longer conversation the next time you see your therapist.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
