I'm not saying that everyone with kids is an expert, or that everyone gets it right, not by a long shot. I am however saying that someone who is childless has no idea what goes into child safeguarding every day. Pretending that you do is just sad, and LARPing as something that you're not. It's not a life experience that you have - so you know less about it! That's life! It's no "offensive".

So by your own logic I wouldn’t be able to babysit my nieces then because as I’m not their parent I wouldn’t know how to safeguard them from harm?

Have you seen the whole video? There's one literally in a thong.

Oh is TS playing the old ‘you can’t have an opinion if you’re…’ card again? Last time he was telling me I couldn’t have an opinion on things because I’m a gay man, nice to see he’s expanding his horizons a bit now though

I didn't say you can't have an opinion, I said that your opinion is ill-informed, biased, and not really worth giving time to. Especially as - like I said - I don't actually believe for a second that any of you think it's A-OK for adult men to be waggling their cocks at infants. You're just "fighting the good fight" (or what you believe it to be).

Maybe I'm being offensively charitable.

We should ban the Little Mermaid too? Kids seeing a 16yr old swimming about in a shell bra is warping the kids

Now you're reaching

[Cal.]

Looks to be a circus act to me however the outfit is a bit inappropriate for the age group.

[Redway]

How many kids do you have, out of interest, Liam?

[Redway]

The people on this thread who have never either looked after vulnerable people, had kids of their own or been blessed with an ounce of sexual decorum have no idea what we’re feeling and it shows.

[Redway]

But then you don’t need to have kids or be anything other than reasonable in the most common way to see how inappropriate this is for kids. This isn’t about their sexuality.

That's what I think.

Why is anybody wearing bondage gear in front of kids?

I honestly don't care what community this performer is apart of, it's ****ing weird.

[Cal.]

I don’t think this topic is one where it can be argued you can’t have an opinion on it if you are not a parent but I suppose it is up to each parent who takes their children to these events if it’s appropriate or not for their child.

[GoldHeart]

I don't know how anyone can defend their outfits.

if the same fella was to go and waggle his cock at a donkey, he would be arrested, so let's accept him doing it at babies, thats ok

Pretty sure his manhood was contained was it not? You’re all imagining things that haven’t happened? Obviously of that was the case then yes he should be arrested.

Oh should he be arrested then ?? Right okay, looks like it's going to take full indecent exposure in front of a child for you to realise how gross and innapropriate this is .

Your little mermaid argument made zero sense, if women were parading in bra & thongs in front of little children , you know it would be wrong .

It’s still a cartoon in a bra that a lot of children watch? If you’re gonna be OTT about a circus performer polluting children’s minds or whatever then use that same energy for other things.

You're comparing a mermaid with a man in a thong really??!? . I already told you it would also be innapropriate if women were parading in thongs shoving their bums in front of these kids .

Imagine a woman doing that with just a feather boa covering her breasts ,as she has her arse hanging out in a thong !!. How can anyone be ok with this for kids !?? . This looks like an adult strip show !.

There was, apparently, also a female burlesque dancer there who was topless. I haven't seen any actual confirmation of that though so y'know, hear'say etc.

That said I am loosely in the "boobs are not genitals" camp on that one. But burlesque in general is still - hopefully obviously, for most people - not supposed to be for kids.

Yes you’re right I can very clearly see his penis. His penis is flapping about like an elephant’s trunk there yes.

You're still arguing that this is appropriate? For toddlers? If nothing else I have to admire the determination. I don't believe you though. I don't believe you'd be stood watching this with your nieces. It's just not ringing true at this point .
