Fascinating tweets about JY’s waxing case. Read here. (Thread title edited by MNHQ)

The wilful blindness is one the most illuminating things I think I've ever seen.

Look at ideologically-driven far-left or far-right regimes in modern history and you'll find multiple examples of this occurring among large, educated sections of the population.

Trip that is shocking. So the judge in the JY case has ordered a media blackout but the same judge is a sponsor of pro-trans groups?

This is corruption of the highest degree in the Canadian judiciary.

Why is the media not appealing this??

Sorry wrong thread

Regarding human rights , it's a human right for a single man to buy a baby from a woman. So he has more money than women because of his class, and then he uses that money to buy a baby off a woman who doesn't have much money because if her class

I think that to a certain type of person, gender affirming= ego affirming.
And for some, it seems their ego can’t be affirmed(=gratified) without stepping on others.

And this person is so obviously trying to provoke.
I wish there was a way to find out how many salons have been contacted by this creep show of a nightmare...

This from a few hours ago from JY. I don’t think the refusing someone with JY’s reputation would be hard to “explain.”

Can you imagine running a salon with someone like JY in the area?

OvaHere

"Whilst I understand it's important to the defendant it misses the point that no woman (or man) should be compelled by law to touch any kind of genitalia against their will."

This is what I have been thinking ever since hearing about JY. This is the legitimisation of sexual abuse.
Canada is a very messed up country.

How is waxing gender affirming?

Because it is one of the few services that is generally split by sex, so obviously for someone to feel all womanly they have to be able to get it done. The actual waxing is irrelevant (there are probably dozens of places JY could have got waxed at if that was what they actually wanted), but it is forcing women to acknowledge JY as a woman, even when touching their dick, that is 'affirming'.

Does that make me a transman because I don't wax there?

Apparently men can also get waxed so i literally have no idea why it's female-gender-affirming.

?How is waxing gender affirming?

Because of the sexualisation of women.

You have to remember the idea of what a woman is to JY.

although saying that it might be because JY likes kids.

Gender affirming I mean

How is waxing gender critical? Women have pubes. If it were a boob job or dick removal, there would at least be a logic to that

But the LGBT-only swimming session is not discrimination against people who are not LGBT? They get to keep that for themselves. Because of reasons.

From the tweet thread:

? Does JY acknowledge that SG also has human rights?
JY - yes but is balancing act

Uh huh, balance. Because reasons.

So Muslim-only women's privacy swimming is discrimination against males who are non-Muslim? Right.

But the LGBT-only swimming session is not discrimination against people who are not LGBT? They get to keep that for themselves. Because of reasons.

This is why I have an issue with ‘human rights’ it covers more ‘human wants’ these days.

When you think of how people are living/dying in this world and some creature decided that their desire to have a waxing is a human ‘right’?

What about the rights of the woman they are forcing to handle their testicles? Oh sorry - only women/foreigners huh?

There’s not enough money or hand sanitiser in the world for me to do that job.

It's as though people's mental faculties have all but combusted

Nah, they've just been been taught over many years not to think.

It's as though people's mental faculties have all but combusted.

The number of words, analysis, and time spent writing about all this without acknowledging that the motivation is the blatant targeting of women, is extraordinary.

The wilful blindness is one the most illuminating things I think I've ever seen.

As is the weird assumption that other women can't see it.

Our human rights tribunal abuse vulture keeps circling- responding to a tweet about discussing “privacy swims.” The first tweet had the piece from New Westminster Record...

"In a May 30, 2019 ruling in JY v. Various Waxing Salons, the BC Human Rights Tribunal expressed its concern about the “rights” of transgender women to access “gender affirming” care such as waxing, which the Tribunal says is “critical,” even if this is “a very intimate service that is sometimes performed by women who are themselves vulnerable.” The Tribunal states that JY has a “genuine grievance” about “pervasive discrimination against transgender women,” and this “is the reason that the Tribunal exists.”"

Since when is WAXING of critical importance? That's absolutely ridiculous. It's of critical importance to absolutely nobody.

So totally disgusted by this.

High Commission, whatever: I'm up for making a protest.

Applying JY's own argument that women have penises too there would need to be a protected characteristic of "penis bearers". There isn't.

At least not officially.

I have no idea but I'm wondering whether after this case is over, whether the identities of the women will become known, so we can support them?

Their full names are on the JCCF website (www.jccf.ca/justice-centre-representing-three-more-bc-aestheticians-facing-human-rights-complaints-over-refusal-to-perform-waxing-service/) so I assume that there is no publication ban on their names and they don't mind them being known.

While the first 2 are mentioned as being religious, there is no mention in the article about the 3rd woman being religious just being uncomfortable and untrained to wax male genitals so hopefully this can be settled from a non religious angle too

@MockerstheFeManist k but there seems to be a diplomatic mission (which would be the same difference no?)
