The Albuquerque and Bernalillo County Public Libraries, like many other public libraries around the country, directly sponsor Drag Queen Story Hours, where male adult entertainers put on nightclub entertainment for children. In library drag performances in states like Washington, children have been pictured rolling around on the performer as he lay on the floor, and in another, a performer put on a strip act that revealed his racy bodysuit.
Many male drag performers have social media accounts that are even more explicit than their performances. If their younger audiences look them up, they may well get an eyeful of age-inappropriate content, much of which portrays women and girls as sexualized objects.
Our organization, the Women’s Liberation Front (WoLF), representing many lesbian and bisexual women, takes the position that it’s wrong for public libraries to sponsor sexualized adult entertainment as children’s entertainment.
Female exotic dancers, for example, are expected to take every step to prevent even their own children from exposure to their work. Gay male adult entertainers instead now perform their acts for other people’s children, at publicly sponsored events.
Gay men are men like other men, adults like other adults. They should not be exempt from the same reasonable expectations put on any female burlesque performer: don’t put on your act in front of minors.
This has been portrayed as a speech issue. It’s a matter of safeguarding children from early sexualization and exposure to damaging sex stereotypes.
This is why we oppose making public policy based on inaccurate sex stereotypes, and we would ask all public libraries to take the same view. Stop treating gay men like children. Stop treating adult entertainment meant for gay men like children’s programming. Stop exposing children to rainbow-washed, misogynistic stereotypes. It’s offensive to the dignity of everyone involved.
