At Joint Base Lewis-McChord’s air show just outside of Tacoma, Washington, this past weekend, onlookers and families saw tactical military jets, high-performance sports cars and risqué models dancing on stage in skintight red, white and blue bikinis, part of what organizers described as a “way to thank the Puget Sound community.”

    I think conservatives are fine with skimpy models at events like this around children than drag shows because it contributes to compulsory heterosexuality (comphet), whereas drag shows - they assume - will make you gay if you watch them.

    Their argument has been in the past year or so “sexualizing children,” but as with many of their culture wars, there’s the implied statement not said out loud: away from heterosexuality.

    These folks still participate in purity pledges at daddy-daughter dances in which a prepubescent girl promises her sexual purity to her father until she is married off. Tell me that isn’t sexualizing kids!
