Since when and how is it an insurance risk to host drag shows in a bar? Doesn’t the bill passed in Texas have to do with putting on “sexual performances in front of minors”? Since when are people under 21 legally allowed in bars? Where’s the logic?
>In a recent survey of nearly 3,000 church leaders, an overwhelming number said they believe churches should welcome known sex offenders, despite their criminal pasts. Nearly 80 percent said sex offenders should belong to a church, while only 3 percent thought they should be completely excluded, according to the “Sex Offenders in the Church” survey conducted by Christianity Today International (hereinafter called SOC survey).
Insurance companies view drag as a risk not because of anything inherently risky about drag. It’s the risk of rightwing violence that they’re worried about. Venues that host drag shows have becomes target for modern religious nutters and the intolerant.

Is there only one lesbian bar in Houston? Really, that is insane.

Not sure I believe this article. I can’t imagine there is only one lesbian bar in all of Houston.

For everyone shocked that Houston only has a single lesbian bar: that’s well above average
You can track every lesbian bar in the country, there’s not many to begin with.

Is this a mandate by the state or just the insurance company. Because this seems like an insurance problem and not a state problem.
