A drag queen course organized for children aged 11 and over causes controversy near Bordeaux. “Is 11 an age to learn to walk on heels and do a drag performance? Drag queens belong to an adult world,” denounces Virginie Tournay, spokesperson for the Parents Vigilant association in Gironde.

A petition to demand the cancellation of this course has gathered more than 600 signatures since it was put online on Monday. The MJC CLAL of Mérignac, contacted several times by Le Figaro, refuses to speak out.
