Transphobia is gaining ground in the U.S. Gender-diverse people in Canada worry it could happen here
Amanda Jetté Knox doesn’t know who tried to throw a bottle at them from a vehicle while walking home in Ottawa last month, but remembers the feeling of it barely missing their head.
“[It] hit my bangs as it went by,” said Jetté Knox, who identifies as non-binary and uses she/they pronouns. “[They] called me a f–king freak and drove off.”
It was the first time Jetté Knox experienced anything so violent but the proud activist and author has endured plenty of hateful comments since publicly sharing their family’s story several years ago. One of Jetté Knox’s four children is non-binary and came out in 2014; the next year, Jetté Knox’s spouse came out as transgender woman.
Once again the CBC Bubble farts out an unpleasant odor, this time implying any dissent regarding gender dysphoria is violence.
The ever present knee-jerk anti-American stance is used to taint the deserved pushback against Trans extremism in the US.
No woman has a dick.
Heil JK Rowling Baby!
