Oklahoma parent blasts teacher for showing ‘highly sexualized’ ‘Kinky Boots’ movie in class 

An Oklahoma mother is outraged by a teacher secretly showing a “highly sexualized” movie about drag queens to her daughter’s class.  

Catherine Davis told local media her daughter’s Union High School theater teacher in Tulsa screened the film Kinky Boots to his class before fall break.   

“In no way did he [warn] this would be an LGBTQIA movie or that it would be highly sexualized content,” Davis said. “This is pornographic. These are men not just wearing dresses, but lingerie and heels.”  

“Kinky Boots” portrays an out-of-luck shoemaker who finds success manufacturing high-heel boots for drag queens. In the film, the boots are referred to as “two-and-a-half feet of irresistible, tubular sex.”  

The movie is rather leniently rated PG-13 for language and sexual content.  

“I did not sign a consent form for this video. We were not informed this video was being shown and we were not given options to opt-out,” Davis continued.  

As a result, she has pulled her daughter from the class and complained to the state Department of Education.  

Oklahoma’s Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters hasn’t commented on Davis’ case but has previously been critical of sexual content in schools. In February, Walters supported the removal of an elementary school principal who performed as a drag queen, saying his goal was to “protect our kids from radical gender theory.”  

Apart from the questionable film, Davis’ story brings to light the difficulty parents face trying to opt their children out of far-left ideological content in public schools.  

In Maryland, parents are still fighting for their right to out opt of LGBT lessons – a right that 19 state attorneys general are trying to suppress.   

A California district also claimed parents couldn’t opt out of “anti-bias” instruction on race, ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation.  

And Pennsylvania parents had to sue their state to get their children out of what they found to be objectionable social emotional learning (SEL) lessons.
