No it doesn't raise any questions, it's just more evidence on the pile that they're never honest about their justifications for doing what they do, and they'll apply their laws selectively as it suits em.
"This is not anti-trans; this is not homophobic," Alford said. "If this were females in an oversexualized arena performing like this, I would be against it as well..."
Austin Higginbotham, a spokesman for Alford, did not return a request for comment asking whether the Missouri Republican condemned the risqué models present at the Joint Base Lewis-McChord air show.
Did not return a request for comment...because oversexualized women is okay, and his stance was entirely political theater to rationalize his bigotry.

Their argument has been in the past year or so "sexualizing children," but as with many of their culture wars, there's the implied statement not said out loud: away from heterosexuality.
These folks still participate in purity pledges at daddy-daughter dances in which a prepubescent girl promises her sexual purity to her father until she is married off. Tell me that isn't sexualizing kids!
Nothing screams family frendly like an adult entertainment company sponsoring your supposed family friendly event. Get those go go dancers front and center for the kids.
Listen, dredging up phony "moral" outrage isn't just a time-consuming and difficult process of navigating lengthy and confusing doctrines. You also have to meet up with these people, ignore their obvious problems, and agree with them when they fly off the handle about one small minority group or another being the cause of all their problems. It's downright soul-crushing, I tells ya. Nobody appreciates being a good phony moral outrage dealer anymore.
