You're creating a dangerous precedent here. You should know that various cultures have various things that are considered sexual. I really hope you won't wander into a culture that doesn't sexualize women's breasts and start accusing shirtless women of pedophilia.
I also really hope you won't do the same of women showing their ankles in the USA! Please remember that whatever you find gross, icky, and sexual about a drag show, people genuinely felt the same about regarding women showing ankles, cleavage, etc. In some cultures, people feel the same about women showing their hair!
Given this massive fluctuation in what we all find sexual, perhaps you should err on the side of caution, and save the accusations of pedophilia for the actual pedophiles, you know, the ones that are actually interested in sexually harming children. A pretty easy cross-cultural definition that spares us from disarming a word that should only be used for a crime anybody could relatively safely describe as "the worst we can imagine."
> So far in this thread I’ve seen you be intolerant of the tolerant and call for violence against those who tolerate your intolerance.
I never called for violence, I've always been referring to protest and the like. If you agree with me that speech can be violence, I find that actually quite delightful, but contradictory with the rest of your apparently conservative position.
