You are reading things into his statement that simply aren't there. You might believe drag is lewd and the prexy might think it's lewd. But that isn't why he shut it down.CanyonAg77 said:Quote:
His thesis is that it's demeaning to women and portrays women in a negative light. That's why he mentions blackface and says drag denigrates women. He doesn't make the argument that its too lewd or sexual in nature.
It's demeaning to women because it is lewd and overly sexual. That's exactly what he is saying, and your personal bias is blinding you to that fact.
He isn't making the case that drag is lewd. That has a pretty specific legal definition and if that was his argument, he'd be well within his rights to disallow it because university policy and the law has provisions to disallow illegal acts.
