More than 32 of these bills were introduced in US states like Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Kentucky, West Virginia, Arizona, Arkansas, Iowa and Idaho.Tennessee was the first one to pass this bill that bans male or female impersonators who provide entertainment that appeals to prurient interests or similar entertainers from performing in public places where children can see them.The bill was introduced by a Republican state representative, Kevin West, who introduced the it in the state House in January to ban a male or female performer who adopts a flamboyant or parodic feminine persona with glamorous or exaggerated costumes and makeup.
