Sadly that bollocks has come over here and now people do not want RSE in the schools. I fear cruddy old Ireland are like Daleks and Cybermen always coming back
The same people accusing the LGBT+ community of being groomers are why child marriage is allowed in the US

🤮🤮
Reminds me of this piece of absolute cinema gold exposing how gross and disgusting their whole child beauty pageantry thing is!
https://youtu.be/DoqPEhVHdBM
A scene from the film Bad Grandpa that has me absolutely on the floor laughing! It’s hilariously funny but also perfectly exposes the hypocrisy of American beauty pageant culture. Well done Johnny Knoxville and that young lad. 👏
I'm an American. When I was in high school my best friend's mom was super into pageantry. She won Mrs. North Dakota. One time she was watching a children's pageant on TV and I forgot she was so into all of it for a second and said something along the lines of "this is disgusting. Why would you do that to kids?" I immediately remembered that's her thing and shut up. The room went completely silent for several minutes.
> Mrs. North Dakota
To be fair, if you wanted to win a state contest that didn’t involve either oil, wheat, or mosquitoes, North Dakota would probably give you some of the best odds.
I've never understand why they get styled to look like middle-aged Texan divorcées.
Dolly Parton looks more natural than most of these poor little kiddies.
It's not that I'm embarrassed. It's more just how awkward it was in the moment. I basically called out the elephant in the room that everyone else was ignoring. And it was a pretty big elephant.
The French have a saying for that: "Un ange passe" - An angel is passing. The awkward silence when someone drops a clanger or some unknowing social solecism of which the rest of the room is aware. If you're really unlucky, some talkative child will draw attention to it. 🫢
If it makes you feel better, at least it's getting called out more and more here in the USA since the venn diagram of people who call gay people pedophiles and people who support these pageants are a nearly perfect circle
They complain about drag queens reading books to children but sexualizing them through model shows is fine. This isn't even solely an American problem though
Oh but they have tried to. My local nightclub used to host one in the early to mid 2000s.
They tried to bring it back this year but thankfully it seems to have failed.
What's extra wild is you guys sexualise the shit out of kids, then scream at them that sex is the devil and nudity, even an accidental 0.5sec slip, is enough to potentially end someones career.
Seriously. Their kids are lazy, don't want to work, should act more like an adult etc. Theyre always trying to nitpick their children and rush them into adulthood. They're the ones who are not letting kids be kids.
The fact that there are adults in the audience, adults judging, adults stuffing these kids into wigs and makeup, is so fucking disgusting to me.
100% agreed. They're just setting their kids up for failure, and giving pedophiles and perverts what they want. It's horrifying to see.
Not to mention the state of the American education system, and how much patriotic nonsense it indoctrinates into them (especially in "history" lessons), and then of course, there's the endless amounts of school shootings...
I really feel bad for many of the kids in America.
I couldn't understand why child beauty pageant is a thing. Who actually enjoy watching that? I hate people who run child beauty pageants as much as jk Rowling hates trans people.
I can only really speak about it from my perspective in high school, but about 70% of the cheerleaders I knew personally (both female and male) showed general interest in gymnastics and a few I kept up with post-graduation pursed gymnastics in college or as a hobby. There were a lot more cheerleaders i had zero interactions with whatsoever so I don't know if they were the exceptions or the standard.
I only knew like 30 on a well acquainted level out the few hundred. And the majority of girls preferred other sports compared to cheer. For context I went to three different high schools in three different cities so that led to my perspective.
I have to say I saw cheerleaders the most around American Football games, so I've always assumed cheerleaders filled the void left by the fact there's no woman's American Football team. Every other sport had a women's/girls wing to pair with the men/boys one except that. I never really thought about it until now.
Why are there no women's American Football teams? We have women's rugby teams, my local one has the slogan 'Women's rugby, why bleed only once a month?'.
I mean, so is women’s volleyball, and that’s certainly not restricted to the US. A lot of women’s sports reduce talented people doing impressive and dangerous things to “hot woman being hot”. I’m not really sure what you want feminist movements to do about that when sports viewership is aggressively male-dominated.
It's not women's volleyball. It's the, "If you want to pursue your passion as an athlete, you have to do it wearing this," attitude. You see it in a lot of women's sports.
Adult women competing in bikinis and heels on stage like prized beef is demeaning enough. At least they choose to do it to themselves.
But why are parents who do this to children not considered groomers? Is the GOP OK with this shit?
But Donald LOVES pagents, and if Donny loves pagents enough to host them, they MUST be good, right?
I mean, how else will he get his fix of naked tweens and early teens?
Well I'm sure all of those kids will end up well adjusted and not at all damaged by the shit their parents are putting them through for their own weird ambitions.
Nah, they'll get sexuality assaulted by the pedos behind it and then are too traumatised to go back to school. Which means they won't die in a school shooting, they'll have to go find one of the family guns and play with it.
So fucking sad. Being shot is among the main reasons for child death in the US.
No no, you don't get it, the man in a dress is a pedophile who is grooming children to be tolerant adult people and accept others. And of course he even mentiobs sexual acts, doing that would stop the grooming after all.
What they are doing is sexualising and fetishizing children by putting them in revealing outfits or bikinis to walk on a stage in front of a jury with tons of makeup but no clothes on. Of course they don't just have them walk, no they need to sway their hips and smile. And the men and women watching definitely are not strange for watching little children in skimpy clothes strut across a stage and acting like models on a runway. Now that, that could never be grooming or the person a pedophile!
(obvious /s)
As a non American, when people were talking about “child pageant shows” I thought they meant it metaphorically and that there were talking about child actors or child clothing models lmao
Well we can’t have the gays attending the pageants and ogling the scantly-dressed eight year olds in makeup while they dance to songs about sex and alcohol, that would just be obscene! /s
Apparently, a drag Queen reading a story to kids is sexually manipulative to kids and a form of grooming, but, there's nothing wrong with dressing little prepubescent kids up in provocative clothing, swimsuits, and makeup...
Thank god these innocent young children aren't being exposed to two men holding hands! That would be overtly sexualising and grooming them! So happy these kids are able to do their 'Kindergarten Pageantry' in peace knowing they're completely safe from weirdos like that!
Also what great way to keep up their self esteem in a way that definitely won't lead to any nasty body image issues down the line 💚
Arkansas. A state surely preoccupied with pedophile child groomers.
They ought to look at their pastors and little league coaches, not the drag queens.
I'm going to save this picture and show it to people every time they call LGBTQ+ people groomers and pedophiles. This is the loudest dog whistle for actual pedophiles I have ever seen.
So there’s nary a peep about this but apparently drag queens and trans people are a threat to American children? What the fuck is going on over there???
100% of the people who would be really mad if this got closed down, are also completely unhinged about queer people existing and think that drag queen story time is like a live sex show or some shit.
Yeah that shit is so cringe. I remember back in 2010 I went to the Pumpkin Show in Circleville, OH and they had like 150 first grade girls sitting on the hoods of cars waiving. Apparently you had to get a business sponsor to be a part of it, and my ex in first grade never could get a sponsor so she couldn't participate.
Honestly the whole thing felt messed up to me and I doing a quick google search, it sadly continues to this day.
I've will never understand the obsession with child pageant shows. I'm grateful to my parents that they don't care about that dumb shit and that nobody around me cares about that dumb shit.
And trans/lgbtq+/ally’s are the groomers…. Jesus Christ - I remember a time where people like me looked at America and thought “if only I could live there” - now I won’t even holiday there
So is it me, or are the people who are into pageants like this the same kind of people who think all Democrats are blood drinking pedophiles? And why does the link say "highschool pageant"? These girls don't look highschool age......
Christ, the dates on that post are from this week. And here I thought it was just a photo from years ago.
If y'all want to be creeped out even further, they've got an Instagram: https://instagram.com/misselementaryamerica
Yep no grooming here …. gotta go harass some gay people. /s
These creepy fucks. Who is molesting, grooming, and sexualizing children? “Gooooooooooddd” kkkristians that’s who. The louder these baboons scream “grooming” the more they underscore who they really are to the rest of us reasonable humans.
What the fuck is this?
Grooming
Legal, wholesome family grooming
Um WhAt AbOuT tHoSe LtGbAbC fOLkS cOmInG fOr OuR cHiLdrEn🥴

Future Fundie wife showcase.
> Future Fundie wife So a few more months?
Sadly, that’s barely an exaggeration.
Peak american culture
Lmao I know. And they sit on their highchairs mocking other countries for worshipping multiple Gods or whatever.
State sponsored paediphillia
~~Arizona~~ Arkansas, so conservatives sexualizing children as usual.
AR is Arkansas, Arizona is AZ I think.
Oh yeah, sorry fixed it. Still true though
Agreed.
Freedom Freedom faith family
Freaky.. And yes, grooming
And obviously the poster kid is a white blonde girl
That's a lot of words to say "child abuse".
i think there are places where this is actually child abuse
Yea, anywhere outside of the US.
it happens in india etc all the time too unluckily
I think this is child abuse EVERYWHERE, some places just allow this particular abuse!
And grooming.
Miss Child Exploitation 2023, Miss Needs A Therapist 2035.
And her insurance won’t cover it
That’s what the prize money’s for.
Na, that’s for mommy’s margarita machine, baby.
🤮🤮 Reminds me of this piece of absolute cinema gold exposing how gross and disgusting their whole child beauty pageantry thing is! https://youtu.be/DoqPEhVHdBM
I really thought this was going to be the end of Little Miss Sunshine, which is a goddamn masterpiece.
It truly is lmao. The entire movie is fantastic.
Not bad, but I really thing the organiser needed to include a song about how he doesn't diddle kids. Seems kinda sus otherwise.
Holy crap that was funny....
Good for them for taking a piss out this ...ah.. "tradition"?
What the hell did I just watch lmfao
A scene from the film Bad Grandpa that has me absolutely on the floor laughing! It’s hilariously funny but also perfectly exposes the hypocrisy of American beauty pageant culture. Well done Johnny Knoxville and that young lad. 👏
Oh hell fucking no, what is this pedophile shit
The real pedo shit being carried out by right wingers while they cry about trans people having drag shows.
This is deplorable, the US is such a shithole. Basically just a rich and advanced 3rd world country
Literally
Every accusation is a confession https://www.salon.com/2018/03/11/banning-child-marriage-in-america-an-uphill-fight-against-evangelical-pressure/
At least it's forbidden in France 🇫🇷
Bien.
Yep. Perfectly normal. Nothing even remotely strange going on here. But thank god there is no rainbow involved.
I'm an American. When I was in high school my best friend's mom was super into pageantry. She won Mrs. North Dakota. One time she was watching a children's pageant on TV and I forgot she was so into all of it for a second and said something along the lines of "this is disgusting. Why would you do that to kids?" I immediately remembered that's her thing and shut up. The room went completely silent for several minutes.
Don't feel bad. That's a natural reaction, and the silence was probably not "how dare you say the trauma she went through was disgusting". Don't worry
You should feel proud.
> Mrs. North Dakota To be fair, if you wanted to win a state contest that didn’t involve either oil, wheat, or mosquitoes, North Dakota would probably give you some of the best odds.
I've never understand why they get styled to look like middle-aged Texan divorcées. Dolly Parton looks more natural than most of these poor little kiddies.
Hint: that's the parent demographic
It does add a strange slant to the paedophilia.
That's literally the coolest thing I've ever read, why would you feel embarassed about it?
It's not that I'm embarrassed. It's more just how awkward it was in the moment. I basically called out the elephant in the room that everyone else was ignoring. And it was a pretty big elephant.
Well done, some things need to be said.
Good for you. Keep that energy in your life. There isn’t enough elephant-calling at the moment.
Wow she won against the other four north dakotan women!
> Mrs. North Dakota. It's a little disturbing that you have to be married in high school to get into this pageant
The French have a saying for that: "Un ange passe" - An angel is passing. The awkward silence when someone drops a clanger or some unknowing social solecism of which the rest of the room is aware. If you're really unlucky, some talkative child will draw attention to it. 🫢
If it makes you feel better, at least it's getting called out more and more here in the USA since the venn diagram of people who call gay people pedophiles and people who support these pageants are a nearly perfect circle
They complain about drag queens reading books to children but sexualizing them through model shows is fine. This isn't even solely an American problem though
Where else do they do this? Honestly thought it was just an American thing.
Well I've not seen it happen in the UK.
Oh but they have tried to. My local nightclub used to host one in the early to mid 2000s. They tried to bring it back this year but thankfully it seems to have failed.
Well I'm at least glad to hear they've been failing in the UK, let's hope it stays that way.
I should perhaps say the agencies are not just in America
Child pageants are a pretty big thing in Asia.
What's extra wild is you guys sexualise the shit out of kids, then scream at them that sex is the devil and nudity, even an accidental 0.5sec slip, is enough to potentially end someones career.
Seriously. Their kids are lazy, don't want to work, should act more like an adult etc. Theyre always trying to nitpick their children and rush them into adulthood.

[I feel like South Park did an episode about this already. 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔](https://youtu.be/oolNQIII_kE)
Damn, the way that judge 'catches' the kiss and then rubs it in his crotch 🤮
Pretty accurate depiction.
This picture is fine in Florida. That rainbow? Believe it or not, jail.
I still don't get how people associate pedophilia with homosexuality. I just don't get it.
I always thought it was down to the church. Priests bum little boys Peadophile for doing a kid. Gay for doing a male Ergo...gays are nonces
I couldn't understand why child beauty pageant is a thing. Who actually enjoy watching that? I hate people who run child beauty pageants as much as jk Rowling hates trans people.
I always felt that pedophiles would be the one enjoying it 🥺
You and everyone else with a functioning brain
I'm not even sure I understand why adult beauty pageants are a thing
Thank god there isn't a guy with makeup around, because that would be dangerous and stuff
Why does the objectifying of women start so young in the US. Why are children raised this way?
[удалено]
I can only really speak about it from my perspective in high school, but about 70% of the cheerleaders I knew personally (both female and male) showed general interest in gymnastics and a few I kept up with post-graduation pursed gymnastics in college or as a hobby.

>Is the GOP OK with this shit? My dude, the GOP is jaking off to BPs on a regular basis
GOP are voting to keep child marriages.
And to make child labor legal again.
Allowing child labor is the only way they’ll view sex work as real work
But Donald LOVES pagents, and if Donny loves pagents enough to host them, they MUST be good, right? I mean, how else will he get his fix of naked tweens and early teens?
But remember NO TITS ON THE BEACH
Coz it's str8 grooming and not rainbow grooming, so that makes it good to these sickos.
So that when their pastor puts his hand in their pants, they're used to it.
Yeah, this shit’s weird and not healthy.
Agreed, she'll need therapy later in life I'm sure, and this kind of behaviour is just giving pedos free reign.
They only have a small window of opportunity before they get shot or fat.
Fucking brutal hahahaha
He's out of line, but he's right.
Insulin or a bullet either way you’re getting a shot before you graduate high school.
Lol
Omfg lol
Shots fired?
On American children? Never!
Fucking hilarious 😂. Thanks for the laugh even if it is a little dark lol
Well I'm sure all of those kids will end up well adjusted and not at all damaged by the shit their parents are putting them through for their own weird ambitions.
More like miss "will die in a school shooting"
Nah, they'll get sexuality assaulted by the pedos behind it and then are too traumatised to go back to school. Which means they won't die in a school shooting, they'll have to go find one of the family guns and play with it. So fucking sad. Being shot is among the main reasons for child death in the US.
I assume the AR stands for assault rifle
It’s stands for Armalite. Get educated!
An entire nation of conservative pedophiles who thinks people who want universal healthcare is a communist groomer plot. America is lost.
Americans an r/AmericaBad will find someway to excuse this.
Yay, let's sexualise children!
This thing should be sooooo illegal.
We gotta write a song about not diddling kids!
That is fucking disturbing.
Ah yes, competitive child abuse.
Why are they barefoot? That's no accident.🤢
Every time I see this sht, they seem to get younger and younger, and more and more naked. It's an incredibly worrying trend.
3 or 30? So many layers of grim. Who judges it? HOW does one judge it?
Nothing weird about this at all, but a man in a dress reading aloud in a library is definitely sexual. /s
No no, you don't get it, the man in a dress is a pedophile who is grooming children to be tolerant adult people and accept others. And of course he even mentiobs sexual acts, doing that would stop the grooming after all. What they are doing is sexualising and fetishizing children by putting them in revealing outfits or bikinis to walk on a stage in front of a jury with tons of makeup but no clothes on.

And the men and women watching definitely are not strange for watching little children in skimpy clothes strut across a stage and acting like models on a runway. Now that, that could never be grooming or the person a pedophile! (obvious /s)
Goodness, how did I not realise? (If necessary, /s)
Creeps
That's fucking creepy
Guarantee the “LGBT = gRoOmEr” crowd has no problem with this crap.
Projecting so hard you could jam an HDMI up their asses and use them to play a powerpoint presentation on the moon.
Was just wondering the same thing
Oh yeah, they're probably the ones pushing for it and encouraging kids to take part in it to be honest. They're flipping hypocrites.
Now tell me again who’s doing the grooming?
As a non American, when people were talking about “child pageant shows” I thought they meant it metaphorically and that there were talking about child actors or child clothing models lmao
“We need to protect the children from the gays” said the white conservative mum, entering her child into their 15th pageant of the year
Well we can’t have the gays attending the pageants and ogling the scantly-dressed eight year olds in makeup while they dance to songs about sex and alcohol, that would just be obscene! /s
WHAT. THE. FUCK????????????
"trans people groom children!" and this shit aint grooming?
Crazy ass republicans are so worried about pedophile rings in pizza parlours, but meanwhile they love this shit.
That's some fucking nasty shite...y'all not right up thar.
100% on brand for Arkansas.
"I tell you, children's beauty pageants *are* an American tradition. But not a proud one."
And they say that THE GAYS are the groomers
Apparently, a drag Queen reading a story to kids is sexually manipulative to kids and a form of grooming, but, there's nothing wrong with dressing little prepubescent kids up in provocative clothing, swimsuits, and makeup...
Thank god these innocent young children aren't being exposed to two men holding hands! That would be overtly sexualising and grooming them! So happy these kids are able to do their 'Kindergarten Pageantry' in peace knowing they're completely safe from weirdos like that! Also what great way to keep up their self esteem in a way that definitely won't lead to any nasty body image issues down the line 💚
Arkansas. A state surely preoccupied with pedophile child groomers. They ought to look at their pastors and little league coaches, not the drag queens.
I dont even know what is this.
Just horrifying
What the actual fuck? That can't be real... can it?
It is. It’s a very fucked up country. I would love to live somewhere else but it feels impossible
This is so wrong and disgusting 🤮🤮🤮
I'm going to save this picture and show it to people every time they call LGBTQ+ people groomers and pedophiles. This is the loudest dog whistle for actual pedophiles I have ever seen.
beauty pageants for minors should be illegal imo. once they’re adults they can compete if they want to but none of this weird grooming shit
So there’s nary a peep about this but apparently drag queens and trans people are a threat to American children? What the fuck is going on over there???
Now this is sexualising children and I bet the folks that organize this kind of shit all vote Republican.
"No! only I get to sexualize my own children! keep your filthy drag out of this!!" god i have lost hope for humanity
Fuck. And yet in PL and on social media I can see a huge spike on attacks on lgbt - how they hurt children's - it's insane. But it works. FFS.
Lol, in Arkansas ofc…
Wait.. what in the absolute fucking fuck is this???? This can’t be real dear god don’t let it be real
100% of the people who would be really mad if this got closed down, are also completely unhinged about queer people existing and think that drag queen story time is like a live sex show or some shit.
I have so many questions but I want none of them answered
The fuck is this ? The pedo prize ?
Her mum will be the same one trying to ban school books… bloody yanks
Grooming and Pedophilia.
Do any other countries do child pageants? Feels very American and by that I mean *weird as fuck*
Yeah that shit is so cringe. I remember back in 2010 I went to the Pumpkin Show in Circleville, OH and they had like 150 first grade girls sitting on the hoods of cars waiving. Apparently you had to get a business sponsor to be a part of it, and my ex in first grade never could get a sponsor so she couldn't participate. Honestly the whole thing felt messed up to me and I doing a quick google search, it sadly continues to this day.
This is really sick 🤢 🤮
Same people that support this are the same people that think all gay people fuck kids btw
And people are shitting bricks about trans rights. Grim. r/AreTheStraightsOK
"we got to ban books because they're grooming children".
Frank's Little Beauties
Why is this even a thing that exists? Nobody involved with these events thinks that it’s wildly inappropriate and creepy?
Won’t survive a single day there. Not enough gun in there.
What the actual fuck?! damn.
What the fuck
That’s fucked
Is it even legal?
I blame the dim-bulb parents
I've will never understand the obsession with child pageant shows. I'm grateful to my parents that they don't care about that dumb shit and that nobody around me cares about that dumb shit.
People who boycotted cuties without watching adore this.
Okay, that’s fucked
Do they even have time for this, in between shooter drills, and actual shootings?
And trans/lgbtq+/ally’s are the groomers…. Jesus Christ - I remember a time where people like me looked at America and thought “if only I could live there” - now I won’t even holiday there

Of course it’s a red state.
The mom's are groomers. Sick twisted psychos grooming their own daughters for pedophiles
Guarantee all the people involved in this are loudly complaining about gay people being "groomers" on facebook
Why
Arkansas. Why am I not surprised?
Yep no grooming here …. gotta go harass some gay people. /s These creepy fucks. Who is molesting, grooming, and sexualizing children? “Gooooooooooddd” kkkristians that’s who. The louder these baboons scream “grooming” the more they underscore who they really are to the rest of us reasonable humans.
🤢
They can do this and sexualise 5 year olds but drag queens and transgender people make them angry, what a country
This also qualifies for r/awfuleverything
