I've asked this question several times.

Name one drag queen who has ever been convicted of grooming and sexually abusing children.

I said to someone once, "There are branches of several international organizations in town that have a centuries old well documented history of grooming and sexually abusing millions of children worldwide then hiding the abuse and moving the abusers to other locations so that they can continue to groom and sexually abuse children. These are the same organizations that are telling you that drag queens are the problem. Why aren't you protesting them? "

    That's a bold but risky move, I wouldn't bet the argument on someone having dug up some obscure examples. The set of people in drag has to contain at least one, and using a 'gotcha' like that could backfire.

    But you're right, they do seem exceedingly rare. Like, weirdly rare compared to the general population, even.

    (pedo drag queens) they do seem exceedingly rare

    This is because interest in expressing one's fabulousness and interest in abusing kids are radically different things. People become drag queens because they are too fabulous to be contained by a single gender and they have to hold it in with Spanx. People become religious leaders because they are trusted positions of power which can provide an opportunity for them to abuse kids and other vulnerable groups with little risk of consequences.
