Two Lincoln drag queens feel they have been made to look like 'sexual monsters' after the high school they attended cancelled a planned talk. The two performers, Lin Gerie and Seven, had approached Toot Hill School in Bingham, Nottinghamshire in March to ask if they could talk to students about growing up queer, being bullied and becoming successful.
Seven said that the school had been initially on board with a planned assembly but appeared to change its mind on Friday, July 1. This was just one week before the talk was due to take place. Toot Hill School said that they had cancelled due to 'adult content published on their social media accounts which is not suitable for children' reports Lincolnshire Live.
Speaking with Lincolnshire Live, Seven said: "We have some things that are tongue in cheek but we aren’t these dirty, sexual monsters online which they seem to almost be portraying. We've got age restrictions on who can see our stuff, we would have been more than willing to take anything down.
