Children do not automatically have consent to school activities; their participation is subject to parental consent, which is always required for younger children and for activities involving higher risk or occurring outside school hours. Schools generally don't need consent for routine, curriculum-based activities.
I might also add two further points which I would have thought would be obvious: most children love dressing up and dressing up games; and one does not need to be gay to be a transvestite. Sexual orientation, which is about who you are attracted to, is distinct from gender expression. You are right in saying that doing drag and being transgender are not the same thing.
I think you'll find things are a little more complicated than that.

We know you’re a pedo, you’re Head Sister, what is your point?

Says the pedo.

Great analysis of what’s going on with Flimflam. The reason he needs to defend the Leftist cult constantly is because otherwise he’ll need to accept that he permanently mutilated and sterilised his own daughter for no good reason, and that is utterly intolerable.
His smugness (‘glad to help’, ‘I can spell, too!’) is part of the persona he has created in which he is a superior being who is beyond reproach. He needs to convince himself, and you, that he was absolutely correct in needlessly butchering his child.
Notice also how he plays the victim, painting me as some kind of bully for breaking hard truths, when in fact the reason I’m here is because Flimflam and his fellow Leftists banned me from Moviechat for challenging their narrative.
if what you say is true
Yep all true. Flimflam’s link will take you to the correct page but it starts too far down. My thread here gives the full story and contains a link that will take you to the part where he first confesses that he has a ‘transgender son’…

It’s a fascinating exchange, and you’ll notice how defensively smug he becomes when arcticdragon asks polite questions about the ‘transition’.

I was just responding to Melton
Go for it. Its a more worthwhile exercise than replying to Melton

, who is a nasty troll.

As for the rest of what you say, such reasoning can of course be just as well be applied to the groupthink of right wing fundamentalists, or those who blindly follow the Trump personality cult, come to that.
no disagreement there. groupthink and being a cult initiate, along with protecting the group as part of one's own identity is something every gang does. From wolf pack to political party.
What all this has to do with record-checked drag acts entertaining children in a controlled environment, is anyone's guess.
i don't really care. i was just responding to melton. i just treat this as a spare-time a thought-experiment dojo.

if what you say is true
sigh It is not. Here is the original exchange, judge for yourself:

I simply have an adult son who has transitioned when over 18 and is now happily married, although its true I supported him in his decision. This has exercised Meltdown so much he has spent months going on about it, misrepresenting matters and slandering me (even devoting two or three call out threads about it!), on the basis of his own bigotry and phobias, which has always said far more about him than it does me. I shan't say anymore as I try not to feed the trolls.

if what you say is true, then he has taken someone he was responsible for and treated her mental illness by supporting someone butchering her otherwise healthy physical body.
i can see he's in deep and he's most likely surrounded by people in the same groupthink. it's sort of like those who are naive enough to get an abortion without due consideration. they will be trapped in that social bubble with people whom, down the road, they may find are rather toxic, but they can never leave that bubble because the false reality won't be confirmed anymore. they'll have to face what they've done with another group's morals. this is the type of thing that can also lead to some pretty strong vices in order to dull that social shame.
if you want to make someone crazy, change what their group finds acceptable constantly. if that group is part of their identity, they will suffer subsequent identity issues. given the state of mental therapies these days, there's no way anyone is going to suffer that trauma and come out the other side in a better state, long term.

‘Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.’
Flimflam is a prime example of this. They made him believe this gobblede**** and as a result he hacked off his daughter’s healthy breasts.
The guy wielding the surgical blade drenched in his daughter’s blood is trying to convince you that you’re the insane one. It’s stunning to watch…

If you really feel 'shamed' by being told that it is better to address the argument and not the person, or that you are employing fallacies, then you need to get out more.
you you don't have much to say anymore.
Free speech can be a bitch, can't it?
I think you'll find things are a little more complicated than that.

i see you're resorting to shaming tactics, so you don't have much to say anymore.

i can tell you (sic) intelligent,
That's very kind. I can spell, too!
but that's beside the point
It is, and is why it is always better to address what my argument, rather comment on me personally.
you've bought into a premise or premises that are false, so all that logically follows is going to be false by that reasoning.
I am not the one arguing with well-known fallacious reasoning.
your logic may be impeccable,
Thank you, it is. Is there anything else or can I go now?
I think you'll find things are a little more complicated than that.

i can tell you intelligent, but that's beside the point (actually, that probably makes it worse for you and those around you).
you've bought into a premise or premises that are false, so all that logically follows is going to be false by that reasoning.
your logic may be impeccable, but again, that's not the point.

It actually shows an application of logic to your arguments indicates that this one is fallacious.

The mere fact that something occurs in nature does not, in itself, provide a logical or ethical justification for human behaviour or an inherent purpose.
this right here shows how they've got you all twisted up inside

"Our natural purpose, which is to…" is an appeal to nature fallacy or the naturalistic fallacy, when one argues that something is morally acceptable or good simply because it is "natural" or "as nature intended". That is, the mere fact that something occurs in nature does not, in itself, provide a logical or ethical justification for human behaviour or an inherent purpose. Glad to help.
I think you'll find things are a little more complicated than that.

to stay in an unnatural club and maintain one's lifestyle, certain sacrifices have to be made to prove yourself loyal.
deep down we know what we are doing/what we have done is wrong and goes against our natural purpose, which is to create and transform what nature provides, rather than to steal and take advantage of those who create and transform.
by getting you to engage and buy into his fantasy frameworks, he knows he has the upper hand because of all the nonsense he's memorized from his storytellers.

An excellent summery of Flimflam’s signature tactic.
It’s worth noting that he has a daughter IRL who he encouraged to ‘transition’. He cut his own daughter’s breasts off to stay ‘in’ with his Leftist peers. Let that sink in.
The shame and guilt over this is why he spends 24/7 defending Far Left ideology and especially trannies - he daren’t confront his own appalling actions.

it's amazing how people are so convinced that memorizing a bunch of smoke equates to being knowledgeable and that if they regurgitate that "knowledge" they can somehow one-up you in a debate with their "expertise".
"..but.. but.. i learned that in public school/university and all the celebrities are saying it too"

You didn't answer my question.

Let's try again. How are you managing your raging homo- and transphobias, Meltdown? Does it still consume you?
I think you'll find things are a little more complicated than that.

Hey, how are you managing your raging homo- and transphobias, Meltdown? Does it still consume you?
Drag queens aren't trans. It's a profession or a comfortable way of dressing. Now tell me if you think children can consent to be entertained by a bunch of gay dudes who wear fake tits.

how come drag queens never entertain at old folks homes?
How come you get things wrong all the time? Drag queens do entertain at old folks' homes. For example, in June 2024 for instance, a care home in Canada hosted a successful vintage drag show fundraiser for LGBTQIA+ seniors. The Oregon-based Rose Villa retirement community as another example, has featured multiple drag queen shows that have become a hit with residents. In addition to these specifically LGBTQIA+-focused events, drag performers have also entertained more general audiences in nursing and retirement homes in the US and UK. The attention on "Drag Queen Story Hour" events for children etc overshadows the numerous, less publicized instances of drag queens performing for other groups, such as seniors, hospital patients, and homeless people. Some conservative and religious groups oppose drag performances in public spaces, and this has fuelled misinformation and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. Glad to help.

Exactly. If you're gay, just show up in your regular clothes. You don't see burlesque dancers show up to schools, but because drag queens are gay, we somehow accept it.
