It’s one of several cities across the country—including San Francisco and Los Angeles—who have signed on to the program, created by Michelle Tea of Radar Productions. “DQSH captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models,” the website for the effort reads.

And parents are really exposing their kids to this!?!?!?!? Seriously!!!! Oh my gosh.. Shame on these parents!
That is one butt ugly picture! My God!
Really? Kids? Teaching them the imagination and giving them queen roll models!
