So of course, a writer at Rolling Stone is mad at him for, and we quote, \u201chaving successfully sucked the pleasure out of many of life\u2019s little joys.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why is having children around adult content something worth celebrating to Rolling Stone? We don\u2019t dare ask but we thought the column was worth highlighting to show the utter insanity \u2014 and perversity \u2014 of the American Left.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is sad that you kind of have to do this,\u201d DeSantis <a href=\"https:\/\/floridapolitics.com\/archives\/612838-gov-desantis-signs-bill-banning-minors-from-attending-drag-shows-lewd-performances\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> after signing the \u201cProtection of Children Act\u201d in mid-May. \u201cThere\u2019s these, like, drag shows. It\u2019s sexually explicit, what they\u2019re doing. And look, adult entertainers \u2014 people can do what they want with some of that. But to have minors there, I mean, you have situations where you\u2019ll have an 8-year-old girl there, where you have these really explicit shows, and that is just inappropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In turn, DeSantis has been attacked by the far Left for assaulting the LGBTQ community or something. \u201cDrag queens,\u201d and other adults, seem confused about what they can do in front of children. Now, a \u201cfurry convention\u201d hosted by Megaplex in Florida has banned children from attending so as not to defy the law, even accidentally.<\/p>\n<p>A certain EJ Dickson of Rolling Stone magazine seems especially incensed that DeSantis is using his authority to guard the innocence of children and keep creepy adults away from them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFlorida Gov. and GOP presidential nominee Ron DeSantis has successfully sucked the pleasure out of many of life\u2019s little joys, from drag brunches to Disney adult TikTok,\u201d Dickson <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/culture\/culture-news\/furries-beefing-ron-desantis-1234742107\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote<\/a>. \u201cAnd thanks to the passage of SB 1438, or the Protection of Children Act, DeSantis may now be bringing the ax down on\u00a0furries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s a furry? Well, as described by National Geographic, a furry, at its most basic level, is a person \u201cwho believes that they are part human part animal.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>As Dickson describes, though, some people who consider themselves \u201cfurries\u201d do it purely for a sexual fantasy of sorts, replete with dressing up as various animals and engaging in vulgar behavior. So in other words, Dickson is mad that children aren\u2019t allowed to be around a bunch of adults whose sexual fetish might be dressed as beasts and different creatures.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile SB 1438 does not specifically target minors dressing as furries, it prohibits children from attending adult performances, which it defines as \u2018a presentation that depicts or simulates nudity, sexual conduct, or specific sexual activities,&#8217;\u201d Dickson noted before claiming, \u201cAnd, like drag, there are pervasive misconceptions that this mode of expression is inherently sexual.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the writer notes that while it is \u201ctrue that there is a segment of furrydom that does treat it as a kink, it is not a representation of the wider community, and many furries do not view their interest in anthropomorphized creatures as sexual at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Where that line of sexualization starts and stops is murky \u2014 apparently \u2014 so Megaplex decided to make the convention age-limited to those older than 18.<\/p>\n<p>Rolling Stone spoke to one transgender furry named SemJay who owns a furry adult toy company. He agreed with Megaplex\u2019s decision but said he would not be attending.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t want to end up in a confrontation, or worse, jail or dead, for just going to the bathroom in Florida,\u201d he said in reference to another law signed by DeSantis which requires individuals to use the bathroom that correlates with their biological sex.<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><\/b><\/p>\n<p>In reaction to Rolling Stone\u2019s article, DeSantis staffer Christina Pushaw tweeted, \u201cDon\u2019t expose children to your fetish and we are good.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Don\u2019t expose children to your fetish and we are good<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Christina Pushaw \ud83d\udc0a \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 (@ChristinaPushaw) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChristinaPushaw\/status\/1662815265652965380?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 28, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It should be noted that as a good rule of thumb, common sense and basic morality would dictate that if there is any question about whether your behavior could be perceived as \u201csexually explicit\u201d \u2014 then it surely is not appropriate for children to see. Apparently, Rolling Stone needs to learn that lesson \u2014 as does the furry community.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><em>The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/body><\/html><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Republican governor and 2024 presidential candidate Ron DeSantis (R) recently signed a bill that bans children from attending events that include \u201csexually explicit content,\u201d such as drag shows or drag brunches.
