Crocs, a footwear brand, is being criticized for its support for drag shows that are aimed at minors.
The company is sponsoring RuPaul DragCon UK, which will be held in January. It features a fashion show for kids.
One user criticized the company for supporting drag shows that are aimed at minors. She asked why kids are forced to wear cross-dress and whether the company promotes sexual deviance.
As a NYC mom of four who has purchased many crocs over the years, What The Heck @Crocs ??!! Why can’t kids “walk the runway” as they are? Why do they need to cross dress? Why are you promoting sexual fetishism to children? https://t.co/NFRgDcKH8a

Drag shows are being criticized due to the inclusion of children. Some users called them "disgusting" and "gross."
Tayler Hansen, a journalist, shared several videos featuring Crocs' ads, which promote LGBT narratives and drag queen identities.
This is disgusting @Crocs. Go woke, go broke.
