So Viacom purchasing ad space on a video billboard in Times Square to push the 10 year old drag queen kid named Desmond, fits your version(definition) of conservative?

"Conservative" here meaning "content permissible within the narrow window of generally accepted social standards" and not "conservative" as in "the most extreme position expressed by religious firebrands".
In any case, what's wrong with ten year old drag queens? That sounds no worse than any typical beauty pageant and probably a lot more fun.

If the kid wants to do it, why not?
Too many girls are forced to into "normal" beauty pageants. Maybe you should focus your aggression that way.

Lots of street corners in Times Square to stand on and yell things at people.

That's why I let my child eat his own volume in cotton candy.
