JY’s parent sounds like an absolute loon. It would explain a lot.

Yeah I have been following that twitter

When the parent burst into court room😆

It’s absolutely bonkers. Then the chat about tampons. 🤦‍♀️
Then when the paramedics were called by the parent
Wtaf is going on in Canada

I can't believe this has gone to court. A woman running a tiny business from her own home being persecuted because she has boundaries about safety. Disgusting.

"Member says she must decide 5 things:

1. Nature of JY's gender identity
2. Scope of service
3. If JY's gender identity was element of denial
4. If gender identity was a factor, is denial allowed
5. Any remedy if required"

The rights of predatory autogynephiles, now encoded into Canadian law.

Jesus fucking christ what is going on in that hearing?? It sounds barking and I bet all the court staff will be pissing themselves about it for weeks.

Despite the fact that this is really serious, reading it is comedy gold!

"JY Opening Statement:

• discusses how important being a woman is to them
• says they embody femininity
• as a child was "girly" and always "prancing" around
• was diagnosed with gender dysphoria as child though was not called GD back then
• has support & love of family"

All of which meant that JY needed their testicles waxed by a woman.

The tweets say there is no press covering this. Journalists know a story when they see one, this is being actively suppressed.

Freak:

"Member asks

• why on exhibit 2 does JY ask if "I" can receive service while on period?"

It should at least highlight the ludicrous consequences of conflating biological sex and gender identity.

Also I am now plagued with a mental image of where they were planning to put that tampon

I know not everyone believes AGP is a thing but the whole case is suffused with evidence for it. The fetishistic obsession with periods is distinctly creepy.

Bloody hell.

The fact that this tribunal is even entertaining this nonsense is chilling. But that's the mess that Canada has got itself into.

Defence lawyer says "defendant is not being asked to wax a gender identity". Quite.

It's true, it's comedy gold:

There is a knock on the hearing room door. It is a couple of paramedics called by JY's parent

I love the way 'parent' hasn't been gendered in this account.

Pure insanity. Stop the world.

They don't need television there with fun like that in their town. Insanity.

Again with the tampons.

How downright thick does a person have to be to not see the fetish staring at them?

I think it is abundantly clear that JY has serious mental illness.

"Lawyer says must address JY's genitals in a case like this."

I did a double-take at this bit then realised it probably wasn't meant literally. :o

That thread is something else! Not a single journalist is ridiculous. Someone on the thread said that it's because they know they can't spin it within the twaw framework. I think that's probably true.

Surely Beauty Therapy Weekly or whatever should be covering it?

I so hope that the tribunal are indulgent to the point (if not already) is reached about how ludicrous, dangerous and vexatious he is. And how in everything that's holy, is there no media coverage? Has it been banned/restricted?

And interesting that JY is using online accounts with their male name, other accounts with a female name but picture of a random woman.

It is obvious that JY is trying to work an angle with these different accounts.

But yanno, you created the problem, Canada. Up to you to fix it.

You know JY will be suing the tribunal next, right?

Be good to see some chickens come home to roost at the local politicians and law makers who helped to create this mess.

Yes popchyk

I can't believe not a single journalist has attended. Whilst on one hand it's utterly ridiculous drama from JY it's still an important case re wider implications.

Reading that tweet thread the whole things sounds utterly bonkers with the parent storming in and out periodically and calling out paramedics.

I can't imagine anyone not seeing the situation for what it is. If the Canadian authorities find in favour of JY then they are a lost cause. I don't know what else to say really.

I am not sure that this case is in JY's best interests. This person appears to be quite unwell.

I hope the legal system staff are being well paid, I'd want a significant raise to deal with this shit.

If this doesn't highlight, in neon, JY's fetishism, predatory and litigious nature, then nothing will. If JY 'wins' this case, the world is fucking doomed.

I'm sure JY won a hearing where their identity was to be kept confidential, didn't he?

They can't call JY a transwoman because it's outing they can't call them a man, as misgendering. So they can't actually mention the genitals in a newspaper.

Which could account for the reporting restriction. How do you report it without actually reporting it, as it were?

Idiocy. And they didn't see this coming????? Do they live in a bubble?

Cor blimey

Can you imagine the British press ignoring something like this? Even though things aren’t perfect here, I can’t, thankfully

Really pleased it’s being tweeted at least
