Tired of parents reading children's books with an adult perspective

This is mostly in response to all of the book challenges we've received in the last year. There have been 12 so far, and that may not sound like a lot but I think it's fairly significant for a public library.

All of them but 1 are children's books, challenged for being inappropriate or sexually explicit. Most of them have been submitted by a group of evangelical Christians who are the moms-for-liberty-type that target any books about gender or queerness (like having two penguin dads), or even books that talk about pregnancy or anatomy.

They all attack these books from an adult perspective, making things sexual that were never intended to be that way because it's for kids. For example, a parent challenged the book "If You're a Drag Queen and you Know it" written by a drag performer which is supposed to be a sing along interactive story playing off the tune "If You're Happy and You Know It".

It was challenged for being inappropriate for children because one of the lines was "blow a kiss" and "shake your booty". Now, I see both of these as harmless. It's fun and silly and to a child that's all it is. Have you ever said the word "butt" in front of a 5 year old? They think that's hilarious.

Another book currently on the chopping block is "Bye Bye Binary" which upon reading the title would send any anti-woke Neanderthal into a screaming fit. The main message of the picture book is that you should love what you love and express yourself how you want and not conform to gender norms (such as pink is for girls and blue is for boys).

Anyways, I'm just tired of being forced into this pointless culture war. As a parent you have every right to curate reading and exposure for your child, but you don't have the right to make that decision for other people.
