      “Second hand smoke” is the smoke inhaled by people nearby a smoker. This has been found to be nearly as harmful as smoking. This means that parents who smoke around their children are harming them.

      I sarcastically joked about “second hand drag shows”. There is obviously no such thing. If someone goes to a drag show, it doesn’t harm other people. This means your comparison between smoking and drag shows doesn’t work at all.

                  You are the one who compared drag shows to smoking. I was simply pointing out that such a comparison is flawed.

                  Edit: actually one way drag shows and smoking are the same is that they are only available to consenting adults who are free to do what they choose regardless of others opinions on what is best for them.
