An Iowa high school is facing criticism after footage was posted online showing grown men wearing thongs and performing sexual dance routines for the school’s teenagers.
The Gay-Straight Alliance group at Ankeny High School hosted the event, which was allegedly not approved by the school.
Popular drag performers from around the Des Moines area drove in for the club’s end-of-the-year meeting.
One performer’s dance routine is going viral after being posted by the popular Twitter page Libs of TikTok.
The Iowa Standard posted an image from the event showing a student appearing to give a dollar to a dancer as if they were at a strip club.
Local news outlet KCCI 8 covered the community’s outrage at the drag show, noting the event was for the gay club and “not for the entire school.”
A performer told the outlet the drag routines were “important for students to see.”
The drag queen told parents who are upset about the event to “broaden their horizons,” and claimed the shows held for teens are “not always a sexual act.”
A statement released by the high school explained, “This performance was after school and localized to the students participating in the club. It was not approved by the building administration, and it is currently under investigation.”
Meanwhile, the establishment continues to claim conservatives upset about grooming in schools are kooky conspiracy theorists.
