@redsad explaining things to kids is so easy. They don’t know anything. They’ll just believe whatever you tell them.

@redsad As someone once said, Kids are much smarter than you think: I don't know a single kid with a full time job and kids.

@Laukidh @redsad Wasn't Bugs Bunny supposedly modeled after Loki and supposedly Loki did this kind of thing too?

If so, we're talking millennia.

@redsad

What’s to explain?

Drag automatically makes sense to children. That it requires a special name is what’s weird.

What takes explanation is that boys don’t wear x, y, z, or, that boy’s don’t have babies, or, that girls don’t have penises.

Ask any honest parent.

When we stop making those strict rules children are less confused.

Not more.

My son once said: "If drag was such a terrible thing, why are women some of its biggest fans?"

@redsad hell it would probably be comforting that adults still play dress up

@redsad Also if your children have any contact with christian clergy they have most likely been sexually assaulted by now.

@redsad it's very easy to explain to a child that adults wear drag, have different sexual preferences, or anything else.

the thing that's hard to explain to a child is why they should have massive hang-ups about all of it and hate those people like their parents do.
