They showed up in their finest work attire, which took, likely, 3 or more hours to put on.
You know nothing of respect.
Comment on 'Dragula' star attends government hearing in drag, slams anti-trans bill
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 3 months agoI can’t believe the person showed up looking like a Navi from avatar. Missouri is a socially conservative state outside the large cities. They also expect people to act with respect. Showing dressed up like is going to make sure the bill is passed.

You don’t show up to a government hearing looking like a clown.

No you should never show up looking like a clown for government functions, acting like one is standard practice for republicans though.

If you are trying to change minds, be respectful and dress for success. Showing up dressed like that, just makes the average rural person say, yep, we need this law. Missouri also made strippers wear bikinis. I was born in Missouri and while I don’t go there often, I have seen a shift further to the right on social issues. I am less socially conservative.

the law should not be applied by how people look. If they treat the law like that, it will get repealed. So actually in the long term it might be better to psychologically push them into making a mistake.

Maybe read the law?
