Instead of telling people they are monkey-with-strapon-phobic. Bad judgement all around and it sounds like the library has taken responsibility at least. No one ever needs to know about monkeys with strapons. Tell them what the need to know when the need to know it based on your adult understanding of the human lifecycle if they do not proactively ask or seek the information. I once blurted out, when my daughter asked, ‘who is that person holding hands with Elton John?’ Oh that’s just his husband and as weird as she might have found it, I got no follow up questions which I would have answered truthfully. Most just accept what they see as not worth paying special attention to if their parents do not. Kids need to know things about their bodies and when they ask ‘why does Heather have two mommies?’, give them an age appropriate answer. If they do starting asking questions in detail, that’s a big red flag and someone somewhere is pushing information on them or worse. Why do children need to know the gory details about all this stuff? Sex and sexuality are not naturally topics of interest to young children. They closed their account hoping this exchange would be lost (re person in monkey costume with gigantic dildo and bare arse dancing in front of children … 'to promote reading') /Z3LuRUmDEm- ShazzBakes July 11, 2021 Tell me you believe the mea culpa from Redbridge Libraries. Some are also skeptical of the library’s apology, given its earlier endorsement of the performance. HOW can one not be aware that ding dongs, nipples and butt cheeks would be exposed to children, when it is clearly shows on thier website? Offence? This should be criminal! - NoPubertyBlockersForChildren 🐘 July 11, 2021 It is unclear why the library was unaware of the types of costumes that could be worn by the performers. What an unnecessarily rude response: - (((Sara Gee)))⁷ ✡️ #FBPAZ July 11, 2021įollowing a public outcry, Redbridge Libraries issued an apology, and has said this will never happen again.ģ/3 happen again.- Redbridge Libraries July 10, 2021 People complained to Labour and were blocked and called 'lecturing Johnny come latelys' by its leader 1/2 /UTT1DZz5Jb- ripx4nutmeg July 11, 2021 Redbridge Labour commissioned a furry rainbow monkey with a huge dildo and exposed anus to dance in front of children as part of a reading project at libraries this summer. Horrified members of the public began to complain on social media, resulting in at least one individual being blocked by the Redbridge Labour Facebook account, and Jas Athwal, leader of the Redbridge Council, accusing a concerned citizen of lecturing and of being a “Johnny Come Lately”. Screen capture of comments by the Exeter Library and Redbridge Libraries social media accounts laughing about the Monkey character waving his dildo around Initially, RedBridge Libraries seemed to endorse the performance, writing “when you’ve got it, flaunt it” in response to a comment from Exeter Library with a bunch of laughing emojis at the “shock when monkey turned around”. Have we completely lost our moral compass as a society? /Lvi6GX4OTj- #FreePalestine #GazaUnderAttack July 10, 2021 There’s an even worse video of the same characters who appear to be simulating sex (see above) unless my eyes are deceiving me. In a video recording, the monkey character can be seen running out of the library and then dancing in place, with hips shaking so that the dildo swings around.
