Each year, Google sponsors a series of Pride events in San Francisco and other locations for employees and the public. This year, the closing event was a “Pride and Drag Show” featuring popular performer “Peaches Christ,” who was scheduled to perform Tuesday at LGBTQ+ bar Beaux in San Francisco to “wrap up this amazing month,” according to a now-removed internal description of the event viewed by CNBC.

So, during Pride, Google sponsors events held at various locations. And people are upset because someone with a weiner is wearing a dress and a fabulous wig while singing showtunes?

It's at a gay bar, but it's also an official employee event, which is weird. I wonder what the expectations are for employees to attend official events. For me, whether it's a drag show or bowling, I don't attend most after-hours work events.

Google is still sponsoring the event, it's just not an employee event anymore. That's probably how it should have been planned from the beginning.

That said, thin-skinned Christians can not attend if it's an optional event. The bible is silent about drag shows.
