I know there is something you all have wanted since the day your child was born. "My child's life would be made complete and they will have the best childhood if only there could be a drag queen story hour!"

Now you all can come to Evansville and have drag queens read to your children at the local library! I don't really know why this is an activity drag queens are interested in, but apparently it is a thing!

My kids missed out on all the fun stuff.

They've had this in Bton for a couple years. It got some breathless publicity when it started, but I haven't heard anything about it since. In fact, I couldn't tell you if it's still going on or not. That's the kind of non-story it is.

Singapore had a famous place called Bugis Street where the Transvestites/Drag Queens and American sailors used to 'hang out' especially during the Vietnam War. They have moved to Changi, in case some of you are interested in learning about their history, several generations on.

At least it's good that there's an "area or bar" where you recognize it's a likelihood. I like to think I'd be able to pick up that I'm hitting on a dude, but the way some look, I wonder. Worlds would collide and hellfire rain down if I reached up under some hottie's dress and encountered a schlong.

One night in a San Diego bar, my friends and I spotted someone. We were trying to discuss it quietly, but in our condition we weren't as quiet as we thought. He gave us an angry look. I hope it was a dude, or we really insulted a chick with an Adam's apple!

Are these pictures from the annual meeting of the Tom Brady Fan Club?

I was up in Bangkok for work a while ago. A business partner took me out for drinks and she took me to bar -- either in Soi Cowboy or Nana Plaza, I cant remember.

We met a few ladyboys there. A conversation got started with one. Started with the technicality of the physical transformation and the psychological trauma and physical pain associated etc -- the business partner did all the translation from Thai to English and back for my questions.

Eventually, after a few drinks, the ladyboy started to pour out her emotions -- how hard a life it was. They don't belong to either gender worlds -- even if they do go all the way and chop off the aardvark since they cant give birth. Feel like a woman inside but an external appendix on them that determines them to be otherwise.

In many ways, it's no different to many of us where we aren't really of one group/societal profile or basically an outsider of another. Square pegs, round holes.

I felt a bit saddened by that conversation and have certainly not forgotten it a decade later. I have a lot of empathy for these folks or others who are misfits.

Yep, that self doubt eats up a lot of folks.

It was good you had a conversation with that person. If you didn't know it before, you saw there was a person that could be you if the roles were reversed. You can find common ground with most people despite very different outward appearances and backgrounds.

Often those most like us look very different on the surface. I hate when people try to divide us instead of placing a focus on those things we have in common. The person you talked to formed a connection that may help them reach out to others.

Does that society endorse them having young kids on their laps telling stories like in libraries in Evansville?

Did you ask @outside shooter before starting a thread about his mother?

Does that interest you? That is just your own fantasy. It probably isn't allowed from anyone reading to children at the library.

Molesters can look like you.

True. But if given the choice of having my kid sit on the lap of a guy wearing a suit or a guy wearing a dress. I'll go with the man in the suit.

I agree it is hard to tell or see a persons heart. I do not agree in my heart children would need let’s say, one who has no idenity to read to a child if it were my child or one of my four grand kids

My kids grew up having never attended story time at the public library.

I wouldn't have taken my kids, but not because of worry they would be abused or that they would cause my son to wear dresses. I would have expected either to have a parent or proper supervision available regardless of who was reading to children.

It's hard to tell a lot of the Lady Boys, from the bar girls.

Yeah, you better stay away from every major 'Merican city too!
