saltyleftyMan accosts 9 y/o cis girl at track meet, accuses her of being trans, while his wife calls girl's two mothers "genital mus
girlfreddy(The man) says he stands behind his question about whether the event was co-ed.
"I am not apologizing for that question that I asked. I think personally I have a right to ask questions, and I always will for rest of my life," he said.
"The mothers should apologize to me for offering and asking me if I want to see their daughter naked and genitals in front of the public and for their false statement and defamation of character."
The officials had to move the events to the opposite side of the field because this brainiac decided that it was his right to harass a 9 yr old child. 😠
Hiding awful behaviour behind "I'm just asking..."
And then when people call him out on his bullshit, he starts accusing them of being uncivilized.
Straight out of the right wing boomer playbook.
Nymphioxetine“They should apologize to me!!!!” lmao
bermuda“I am not apologizing for that question that I asked. I think personally I have a right to ask questions, and I always will for rest of my life,” he said.
He may be right, but what he doesn't understand is that everybody else has a right to get pissed off at him for it. Just because one person has a "right" to do something, doesn't mean they're exempt from criticism.
I don't know, I don't think anyone but the child's doctor has a right to ask what gender they are. There is not a single rational reason this random guy had to be speaking to this kid.
femboy_link.mp4He’s not right. It’s none of his business.
Protecting children by harassing children
These people are just disgusting. What in the hell does it matter what her gender is? Why not stop being a creep and pay attention to your own child, or stay away from the event if you don't have one?
Because it's Kelowna. I've driven through and stayed for an afternoon and it's basically the Mississippi of Canada.
The terrible thing is, it doesn't matter where you are anymore. The more hateful, shocking, and deplorable things you say, get you more attention now.
For the past few weeks I've been trying to imagine what WW2 would have been like with today's internet. On one hand I hope that having real time info on all the horrors would have ended the war sooner with much less death. On the other hand, we have real time info on modern atrocities, and our leaders still just pretend it's not happening.
nothing says "i protect children" like "I am disturbingly interested in children's genitalia"
As one would say, "For every projection someone make is a confession."
Fuck that guy.. seriously
I would think, in Canada, such behavior would merit a hate crimes charge, since they don’t worship at the altar of FREEZE PEACH like we do here in the U.S.
TheiaTheMoonMakerThe incident is in fact being investigated by the RCMP. On top of that it was other parents who intervened to stop the man, the school is banning them from school property, a city council member says they’ll investigate how to promote safer spaces for those who are minorities, the mayor gave a statement condemning it, and the premier of the province condemned it and encouraged everyone to stand up against transphobia. The message has consistently been that transphobia is not okay, and not “but she wasn’t even trans!”, which I think is good.
Realistically the response after it happened was probably about as good as could ever be hoped for. I really hope the little girl is able to remember the support and not the attempted insult.
I also feel bad for the grandchild of the bigots, who was also participating in the event and is presumably a classmate of the other kids. The grandparents apparently live two provinces away, so good job Grandma and Grandpa coming for a visit and causing shit for the kid and parents who have to live in that community.
I mean, the part where the girl isn't even trans just makes this asshole look even fucking worse. He would've been a piece of shit either way, but now he's a piece of shit on top of being wrong. Does this guy look at cancer patients and have a shit fit because he thinks they're trans too?
He's probay the type that throws a tantrum when a "healthy" looking person uses a handicapped parking space. I can't fathom how people like this think, are they so "perfect" that they go out looking to be enraged?
he's been wanting to throw that fit for a long time. He's locked in some horrible echo chamber of hate and has been ready to fight the "wokies" for a long time. People like this just aren't fit for our society in my opinion. At the very least it's harasment and the justice system should do something with him.
IllecorsThis is the reddit kind of sensationalist bullshit, targeting emotional response to prolong interactions with site :(
Yeah, there's really no reason to spread this except to piss people off.
alyaza [they/she]while this is a psychotic example of anti-trans nonsense, i have literally no idea what discussion can be had about this because it's basically a shock story and i'm going to remove it on that basis. this will ultimately be a case-by-case thing, but in general future stories like this will probably be removed unless there's social significance to them that outweighs the shock value.
