Teacher Kayla Lemieux’s breasts become a political issue!
Parents and students at Trafalgar High School in Oakville, Canada, had complained regarding the trans woman for wearing huge prosthetic breasts in class. They should now be banned from her.
The school board, under pressure from Ontario’s education minister, has ordered staff to develop a dress code that meets “professional standards.”
“I believe our basic position is that staff must meet the highest standards when they are in front of children,” Minister Stephen Lecce said in December.
Several parents and students believe that Lemieux does not. Her giant prostheses, with prominent nipples, “mocked women and the educational experience,” complaint letters said. Others feared that the prostheses might pose a safety hazard when working.
Kayla Lemieux has not yet commented.
Trans woman targeted by bomb threats
After images of Lemieux first surfaced online last September, the trans woman was quickly targeted by culture warriors. In November there were two bomb threats at her school.
“We have planted several bombs throughout the school and we will not stand idly by as this woke ideology destroys all of Western society,” the threatening email read, according to the Toronto Sun.
The right-wing TV station “Rebel Media” also targeted the trans woman. Moderator and activist David Menzies dressed as a woman with huge breasts attended a school board meeting. He called for the members to resign before a policeman threw him out of the hall.
Dividing opinions at school
The school supervisory board had backed the trans woman in September. “Kayla Lemieux is a very good teacher,” said Chair Margo Shuttleworth. The “Toronto Sun” had asked around at the time among the students. Year 12 Owen said, “I’m fine with that. I know some of my friends are a little uncomfortable with this. But I think Ms Lemieux should be able to express herself however she wants.”
One mother spoke of Kayla Lemieux in the masculine form: “He’s going a little too far. Standing up for yourself is okay. But wearing something like that in the classroom… I have reservations.”
