I think that she thought that the Oakville teacher was trans. I don't think she said people were lying but I'd have to look back.
The Oakville teacher is trans if he says he's trans. That's how self-ID works. That's the holy grail that the transes and their allies have been fighting for for years. It's largely how things already work in Canada.
You seem to be under the impression that there's some sort of objective standard as to what a "real trans" person is, and that this teacher has failed to meet this objective standard by being caught without his costume.
But the reality is that no such objective standard exists. If you disagree, try and describe what that objective standard might look like. You might come up with ideas like:
-somebody who has surgery or hormone treatments
-someone who successfully passes as a member of the opposite sex
-somebody who at least tries to dress or act like a member of the opposite sex
-somebody who has clinically diagnosed gender dysphoria
-perhaps some other seemingly reasonable notion
But none of these are widely agreed on even within the trans community. Mention any of these criteria to trans activists and they'll tell you it's unacceptable gatekeeping.
You might tell me that even if you can't actually define what trans
is you know that Kayla Lemieux can't be a real trans person, because he got caught without his costume. But a trans supporter would tell you that there are many reasons why a trans woman might be out-of-costume. Perhaps Kayla felt anxious or unsafe due to all the scrutiny and wanted to be anonymous for a while. Perhaps Kayla was exploring "butch" forms of gender expression. Perhaps Kayla's titz and wig were at the dry cleaner that night. We don't know.
And, it doesn't matter, because Kayla changed her gender expression, not her gender identity. Just as a cis-woman doesn't stop being a woman just because she wears unfeminine clothes or gets a short haircut, Kayla doesn't stop being a woman just because she wore unfeminine clothes or went out without his wig and titz. He may have not been presenting a feminine gender expression that day, but that doesn't mean she doesn't still have a female gender identity.
That's what a gender-person would tell you. I, of course, believe it's all a load of dogshit.
And while Woke Dog points out that there are some paperwork steps to get your legal documents changed, you don't actually have to get your legal documents changed to declare your own gender and to demand to be treated as your self-declared gender. Yaniv didn't need to have his documents changed to take the aestheticians who wouldn't handle his balls to the BC HRT.
This ham-planet from Squid-Country doesn't need to have his documents changed to take the Parksville gym to the BC HRT for not letting him hang out in the women's showers.
