Transgender people born in Ontario can change birth-certificate gender without surgery, province says
This policy conforms to the established inversion of reality, as cutting off one's private bits doesn't change gender either.

Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Change! it's for what ails ya.
Fantastic! The gender bias of affirmative action is crumbling. Soon I will be able to claim to be a female, lesbian, native with a French-speaking disability! I will be able to take any government job I desire.
Be a line-up in Trawna, I imagine.
As a WASP heterosexual male I know that all the ills of the world are my fault.
As I wouldn't mind some of the gravy always forwarded to the aggrieved minority groups, I've decided to become a male lesbian.
Now, where's my cheque?
Couldn't care less what gender people want to call themselves.
on another note....
U of C are installing "family" washrooms next the heteros, cause the transgendered aren't comfortable using either.
is this "reasonable accomodation?" (hat tip to quebec)
err, are the "staight family users" comfortable know the transgendered share the facilites?
The world is totally screwed up!
And 'Susan' Gapka, I don't care what you call yourself, you will always be an ugly, cross-dressing dude with man-boobs.
In the US you can also choose the location of birth on your birth certificate. /
I want to see them change from XX to XY. Or the reverse, of course. Then I'm good with it.
Otherwise, not so much.
Don't let your kids use the bathroom at the store without an escort.
Ontario simply needs to adopt a new birth certificate form with the "gender" blank filled with a pre-printed "whatever".
Ontario is definitely being run by a whack of nincompoops led by Dalton the Destroyer.
He and his band of far Left Liberal Socialists have interfered in every facet of our lives, there's a law against everything but breathing.
Expect we'll be seeing more options to check off in the little boxes beside gender on government information forms.
I remember a CIS show where everyone dressed up like their favorite inner animals. Will Ontario have box's for them as well? After all they are in the wrong body, born human instead of the animal they where meant to be. This is the lunatic mentality of these people. Mean while they legislate our freedoms away, while allowing obscenities in exchange. Allow what would have put one in a mad house . While taking your opinion on abortion, or even have an image of a gun.Allow adults in washrooms of the opposite sex with children to be made illegal.Usurp our property. Take our children in the name of children. Allow barbarians free rein with its lawlessness than persecute anyone who was born here. Forbid us any conscience but what the State deems right like its a god. Than call it progress.
The Police are now a citizens enemy as the Media is at war with those they are tasked to inform.

Sorry thought the filter had blocked the post
Giving a small percentage of the population the right to intrude upon the sense of security and safety of the rest of the population is a form of tyranny. These types of decisions by the government are a way of keeping up a false appearance of freedom, when in fact, freedoms are being dismantled.
If this group is going to be accommodated, then go all the way and provide separate public restroom facilities. I would be very uncomfortable if I were in a public restroom and a male dressed as a women was waiting to use a stall.
In a world where people are simply units and numbers, it isn't surprising that there will be those who seek to modify themselves to gain a degree of significance. Add special rights as a pay-off for modifying oneself (instant significance) in the eyes of the law and society- is it any wonder those that previously practiced this sort of fetish among the like-minded in nightclubs or in the privacy of their homes are now celebrating their new found significance and special treatment in the daylight.
I would really love to be there when some transgendered guy waltzes into the ladies' room behind Kate. If he/she/it has any balls our dear Kate would have them handed to him/her/it.

Response from Doofus McGoofy,
"We feel your pain. Your cheque is in the mail. We trust that this money from other people will help you to feel normal."
As long as we're going to let BS be the order of the day, maybe Elizabeth Warren could change the WHITE FEMALE on her Okie birth certificate to FULL BLOODED CHEROKEE FEMALE.
I'm a little tea-pot...
Name one other mental health disorder that Canadians have been forced to accept as factual and legally sound? Why do liberals hate us gals so much, what did we do to those twisted freaks?
When people use the public washroom do you publically flaunt your sexual organs for everyone to see? I fail to understand what the problem is for someone who thinks they are female, dressed like a female (or vica versa) to go and use a bathroom stall?
I mean gay people use the bathroom too - are we going to restrict them? So far I don't see people generally leaning over to stare at my whiz and getting some kick out of it.
If we expect tolerance of our way of life, we have to tolerate other people as well. As far as I am concerned there is too much meddling from both the left and right regarding people's private business.
While we're changing official documents on a whim, why not change the date of birth to get OAS quicker? Or maybe I can change my Dad's name to somebody rich and claim an inheritance?
In the US you can also choose the location of birth on your birth certificate. /

I remember reading somewhere, that in Switzerland there are "co-ed" swimming change rooms.
Apparently, they're matured enough to see fashion and swim wear/beach fashion for what it is.
On the other hand we have the jihadis throwbacks claiming a woman with an uncovered head and face will cause a man(Muslim) to go berserk.
Perhaps, Ontario will just end up issuing dual identity cards, one male, one female, so people can get in touch with their feminine or masculine side.
Philosophically, this absurdity is the result of identity politics being taken to it's logical conclusion.

pandering to "small" minority of malcontents has nothing to do with tolerance. These people need to accept that they are somne what different and they need to just suck it up. As a dyslexic I don't ask, nor what, special treatment, I'll do just fine without it. Why would I expect, at great needless expense, special treatment when I would rather be treated as an equal, not a freak!!!!
NME666: I'm not pandering. I don't suggest we give anyone special rights. Whoever owns the washroom can decide how it operates as far as I am concerned. However all this fussing about around a non-issue of some transsexual using a public washroom is rediculous.
It reminds me of the same people who get all worked up because I have a conceal carry weapon license. They cannot see the firearm but they sure got to tell me how sick I am.
I've said it before and I'll say it again:
I just screwed some antlers into my skull; I'm a stag now. I'm here. I'm deer. Get used to it.
langmann: do you have young children, or young grchildren?
Yep. Gellen do you?
I'm not the least scared of a transsexual harming them either.
I'm more afraid of them being ostracized in school for their beliefs or culture (such as hunting) and if any of them turn out to be gay I'm just as afraid of them being ostracized by other people with meddling attitudes.
langman
the pandering referance is to the ontario legislation
Phantom beat me to it: XX or XY.
If you're confused, we have a blood test that can clear it up for you. What style of clothing you choose to wear is your own business.
For the tiny percentage of people who don't fall into these nearly exhaustive categories, we can let them argue with a bureaucrat with a biology degree.
NBE666: how is it pandering? If someone wants to call themselves whatever sex it's not the business of government.
Exactly how good is it for society to allow a handful of obviously mentally ill people to radically change public policy?
My brother had a VW bug in the 70's. He put on those aftermarket fenders, hood, and trunk lid that made it look like a Rolls Royce. He said. "look, now it's a Rolls!" I said, no, it just looks like a Rolls Royce, it's still a it's still a VW bug.
yeah well what's all the fuss.
I'm about as straight as they come.
However, I shared my abode with a "funny-boy" and we got along just fine. I proposed he refrain from making homosexual advances....and I would refrain from homicide......
Hey nobody's perfect.......
The problem is we put up with this sh*t without a word any where of dissent...most people think let it go it will right it self some day.....but it won't....being passive is not working...///
Revnant Dream @ 3:41, well said. The inmates are running the asylum.
sasquatch, exactly.
How many perverts are going to change their birth certificate so that they can legally hang out in womens change rooms? How many criminals facing conviction are going to change their gender pre-trial so that they are sentenced to female prisons? It's bound to be abused.
The real implications of trying to please everyone all of the time is going to come home to roost.
Have any of you seen this week's Sons of Anarchy?

Ontario is being run by the people's choice. Imagine the intellect of a population that would give The Dildo 3 kicks at the can.
This nonsense is part of the reason that government and it's endless, meaningless dictates are increasingly easier to ignore and just carry on on our own.
"Imagine the intellect of a population that would give The Dildo 3 kicks at the can"
*sigh* That's too right. You encounter countless numbers of them in the GTA: liberal self-proclaimed "intellectuals" who presume to know what's best for everyone: pro-abortion, pro-islamist, pro-enforced gay agenda. Whatever; it's a mixed bag. And, of course, they are the most vocal against any form of conservatism: property rights, free speech, welfare reform, a flat tax, immigration reform, the challenging of radical environmentalism.
Leftism is a parasite, a cancer on the members of a balanced, productive and moral society.
mhb23re
mhb, amen!
langmann's point about "meddling" has surface appeal for a libertarian.
HOWEVER, this is state meddling caused by hyper-active social activists, the very opposite of what a good libertarian wants.

BINGO. And what would be the nation-wide population of the "transgendered community". Would be 100? Or fewer? And will the number rise with the arrival of state-sanctioned victim status.
and langmann's "concern" a word I almost always put in scare quotes in matters of bureaucratic madness has to make you laugh.
As an old friend used to say that "look of concern" is usually hemorroid (sp?) discomfort.
Me no dhiimmi makes a whole lot of talk with no real evidence just like the lefties who wail on about a firearm I might be carrying in my pants crying about the end of the world being at hand. No difference between conservatives and lefties when it comes to telling other people how to live their lives.
At the end of the day what proof he has that it matters a hair what some person puts for their sex on their birth certificate is not answered.
