If you have a problem with the concept, don't take your grandchildren to storytime, if you have any, that is. And don't take them to a "No" theater performance. And don't take them to any Renaissance fairs! And don't let them watch Milton Berle, or Flip Wilson, Or Dame Edna! Or Benny Hill, or The Monty Python show, God forbid!
As a matter of fact, you should probably just wrap then in bubble wrap and cotton batting and lock them in their rooms with no tv,computers, phones or current books/magazines too. It's the only way to PROTECT THEIR FRAGILE MINDS!!!!

And whatever you do, don't let them get their little hands onTerry Pratchett's Discworld book, "Monstrous Regiment" - almost every character in that is a woman pretending to be a man.

My grandchildren are grown up, and can do as they please. Except the little fella in England, who's only 4 and I certainly wouldn't take a small child to any of the abvementioned.

Totally over the top as usual.
I would certainly not be taking them to libraries to be read to by drag queens, or anyone else, for that matter. I used to read to them at bedtime until they were old enough to read themselves.

I've never read Terry Pratchett. One book of his I started, had to put it down after a cpl of pages because it was utter tripe.
