The way you’re equating all drag performance with pornography or “lewd acts” is equally ridiculous.

I specifically AGREED with you that you were right that all shows are not necessarily pornographic... The fuck dude? Are you dumb?

Oh so my example of a man, dressing as a woman, and doing a performance is a bad example because it doesn’t fit your clearly borderline pornographic concept of drag shows but I’m missing the point?

Please elaborate.

No... mandating a corporate retreat to be at any potentially sexual shows are or anything even remotely related to those topics. But you're so hung up on some random fucking minutia that you can't see the forest for the trees.

that all shows are not necessarily pornographic

You're on the right track...

mandating a corporate retreat to be at any potentially sexual shows

Ahh you were so close to spotting your doublethink.

Remember when I said?

You must think that all women on streaming sites are cam girls by that logic.

We can't endorse people in the office sharing Youtube videos because it's potentially sexual!

That's what your logic boils down to. Each drag show needs to be judged based on its actual content and not preconceived notions.

Also there are absolutely workplaces that include borderline sexual content in after work events, including movies! Some movies even have sex scenes! We can't go watch Shrek because they kiss and imply inter-species relations!
