A conservative family is being lambasted online after voicing their outrage over a supposedly male actor at Disney World playing a woman.
The family spoke to Disney-focused—and openly anti-LGBTQ+—blog That Park Place to say they were convinced a "biological male" performer was acting as the Evil Queen from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs at one of the park's themed restaurants.
The incident occurred at the Story Book Dining experience at Disney World's Artist Pointe. The family claimed that the Evil Queen was a "man dressed in drag" who had a "man's voice."
According to That Park Place, the family were invited during their dining experience to meet the Evil Queen, which they had "high hopes" for—hopes that were dashed by their bizarre obsession with the biological sex of the actor playing the Evil Queen.
The father of the family then complained to management, saying he felt "disrespected" by the venue's lack of consideration for "family values," which apparently means making sure actors have the exact genitalia good Christian families expect.
The father told the blog:
“I stated we are a conservative Christian family. I’m spending $8,000 on this trip in addition to the tens of thousands I’ve spent together in the past at Walt Disney World and Disney Cruises, and that this is not right."
That, of course, makes no sense whatsoever; it's not Disney's problem you spent thousands of dollars on a vacation at a place that has been very open about its LGBTQ+ inclusivity, especially when you could've gone on a vacation to, say, the Creation Museum and Ark Encounter in Kentucky.
But appealing to conservative Christians' common sense when it comes to their bizarre panic about the mere existence of LGBTQ+ and transgender people has pretty much never worked.
So obviously the dad's outrage escalated when the manager of the venue refused to fire the Evil Queen on the basis of a single complaint from one religious fanatic.
He went on to say:
“The manager just listened and never once apologized for anything. At one point [the manager said]: ‘I can assure you that she is a woman’.”
The father then demanded to know the Evil Queen's "biological" sex, a question the manager said she "cannot answer."
"She went even further, trying to shame me, informing me that ‘she’ was so excited to get the part as the Evil Queen. For a brief moment I thought, ‘Maybe I’m wrong’, but then I realized I was just being gaslighted."
No sir, you were just being weird and demanding information about a complete stranger's gender identity that is absolutely none of your business. Do you see the distinction?
As you might guess, this family's ridiculous spectacle has not gone over well with most people on social media.
We wish the family the best of luck in getting over their bizarre fixation with what's between the Evil Queen's legs. (They should probably talk to someone about that...)
