"She went to step up to compete for the grade four shot-put final, and right before she went to throw, a grandfather of a student said, 'Hey, this is supposed to be a girls' event, and why are you letting boys compete.' My daughter is cisgender, born female, uses she/her pronouns. She has a pixie haircut," said mom Heidi Star.
Star says the man then carried on to demand certification to prove that her daughter was born female.
"He stopped the entire event. He also pointed at another girl who also had short hair. He then piped in and said, 'Well, if she is not a boy, then she is obviously trans.'"
Star said the man's wife then started calling her "a genital mutilator, a groomer, and a pedophile."
This is what happens when you allow Americanism to invade your country.
That open?
I hear this kind of thing couched in the dramatics of Gay Panic Defense from time to time. "What happens if my 250 lb, 40 year old, grizzled ass was to be sexually assaulted by a roving gang of transgenders?! I would have to act in my own self-defense, surely. Now let me give you the ugly details of my personal bigotry-inspired power fantasy."

I've been wondering if the growth in transphobia is because bigotry against cis queers is being less and less tolerated, and the bigots are simply looking for a new target because their fucked up psychologies require them to be bigots against someone.
Chuds tend to say something like “this trans stuff is on your entire community”.
The child moral panic bullshit is just the wedge to open the door. The target is all LGBT. The call to arms is just an excuse.
You know what? They're right. Defending trans people is on the rest of us in the LGBT+ community. So let's step the fuck up and do it. Publicly, angrily.

I fear you're right. It's incumbent on us cis queers to not stay silent.
