Kayla Lemieux caught dressing as a man when not teaching!

I'm not so sure. Don't these extreme cases just widen the range of what is considered to be acceptable?

There is another individual in the UK who thinks the EA 2010 protects part-time identification, and speaks to businesses, telling staff the same. I have obscured identifying details, but this really does seem to be a genuine person.

As far as I can see he is dressing like a man in all of those photos, in not one of them is he dressed like a woman …

Trans, trolling, fetish, predator, it doesn't matter, it is unsuitable dress

That is true, of course, but he is doing a fabulous job of exposing the madness of gender identity. I bet every girl in that school is now a T*RF 😉

Fecking freak.
He gets off on exposing his kink to children. There's a word for that.....

Personally I think he is trolling, but in reality it shouldn't matter what his intentions are it shouldn't be allowed.

Too many people are concerned about what his intentions are, whether it's a fetish or not. There should be policies in place that what he is wearing is unsuitable, and dangerous in woodwork classes. But unfortunately when you have policies in place to protect "trans" people, anyone can abuse them.

This is very similar to the debate around the banning of religious head coverings, I believe there the policy was to ban all head coverings (whether religious, or motorcycle helmets etc), but as soon as someone could claim it was religious wear it took on another argument, not the fact that head covering were unsuitable in certain situations.

Trans, trolling, fetish, predator, it doesn't matter, it is unsuitable dress.

I agree with you @pattihews

I think you misread me.

I think it's great that he's advertising the madness of gender identity, deliberate or not. I just feel sorry for the children he is teaching and their parents.

But high profile fetishism like this can only help to open people's eyes to the Illogical, regressive, misogynistic and dangerous nature of gender ideology. And its relationship with AGP.

He's trolling

*This man publicly dresses up in an overtly sexualised woman suit BUT only in front of children.

That sounds like something.....* that gender-identity-based law effectively protects.

I was thinking about this bit:

'A person has the protected characteristic of gender reassignment if the person is proposing to undergo, is undergoing or has undergone a process (or part of a process) for the purpose of reassigning the person's sex by changing physiological or other attributes of sex.

But, you're right, that itself is so vague as to be meaningless.

Yeah,I'm sure there's a word for that sort of thing.🤔

Presumably this is a contributing factor to ‘transvestite’ falling out of use and nonbinary/ gender fluid becoming more popular. The latter two are ‘identity’.

If you look at the r/nonbinary sub it’s mostly blue haired teens with a smattering of what looks awfully like old school middle aged transvestites.

See also: Eddie Izzard.

'he says he's a part-time transvestite then he is not covered by the UK EA2010's definition of 'gender reassignment'

How is he not? That definition is so vague as to be totally meaningless.

So although according to Stonewall PB is trans, if he says he's a part-time transvestite then he is not covered by the UK EA2010's definition of 'gender reassignment'. Though clearly he and his employers think he is!

I wonder which of these views - Stonewall or EA - the Canadian Govt has enshrined in law.

This - fascinated to see where it leads. I'd imagine the kids he teaches think it's hilarious.

There are quite a lot of photos from the school and none of the kids in them look at all happy.

I've seen no evidence he's trolling. The transwoman quoted in the article says he's just wearing inappropriately large prosthetics that are usually worn by 'sex workers and drag queens'.

So ir seems his gender identity is just as valid as anyone else's - the only problem people have is that the prosthetic is too large.

To me, the breasts dont look like breasts they just make him look fat!

Not sure it helps the cause though. Still reeks of misogyny - convincing woman costume = massive boobs and long blonde hair

Take P Bunce, for example.

Philip Bunce admits that he's just a part time transvestite. He was still happy to take the Business Woman of the Year thing, however.

Agree.

title is fine - this dude uses woman as a costume and thus sets the precedent that man can also be a costume.

Disappointingly he’s still gonna be covered by the trans umbrella - he can just claim gender fluidity a la Pips Bunce. Be fun to watch the school board squirm some more though!

Sounds much more likely.

Oh the breast aren't under the red jumper; if you zoom in you can see the nipples in all there prosthetic glory...since when did women start wearing breasts over their clothing? Surely if one really believes one is a women one would want to emulate them? I mean surly one would just want to blend in? And why does one need to mess with pronouns when one can use one...anyone?!

I can't imagine any man would do this to make a point. I think it's exactly what it looks like and making excuses for him is bit naive to say the least.

This chap, however, is a full on toxic bloke, just in a different mould to the ones we usually see dressed as women. I mean, the misogyny and narcissism are still there, but he's not confused about his identity imo.

How many transwomen do you encounter? I'm a lesbian and many of the formerly lesbian groups I've been a part of for years now have men like this in them — men who are getting a kick out of disrupting and trolling women because they can. It's a power play, designed to make women uncomfortable and helpless to do anything about it.
