UBC prof who denounced Jordan Peterson in gender debate has skeletons in her own classroom

On one occasion, she says, a guest speaker suddenly dropped her pants, stood before the class naked from the waist down, “and showed us her black satin strap-on penis.”

I do wish they would give full details of such events. If the satin finish is significant enough to get mentioned, what about the size?

It's also really worth reading the text mentioned - I loved the idea of a none lesbian identified student being expected to discuss "Two white bisexually-identified students created an extraordinary video about two bisexual room/mates doing the dishes and chatting-in the nude."

This seems to be the money shot;

After a gruelling first month of classes during which a large group of mostly silent students "passed" as lesbian, students who considered themselves to be "out lesbians" and we instructors -feeling that a great deal of deception was taking place at the expense of the safety of the lesbian students - suggested that students who identified as "heterosexual" would probably be better able to contribute to the discussions/collaborative projects if they positioned their in-class comments/work by referring to their own experiences and dealing explicitly with their privilege and power-over.

The students sat there in stunned, awkward silence. We had no idea what to say, what to do or where to look.

Bryson confirmed the incident but said “the presenter unexpectedly showed a dildo” while demonstrating the correct way to use condoms. “Dr. Bryson had no advance knowledge” the presenter would do that, her lawyer says, “and intervened as quickly as possible to stop the demonstration.”

What if this was from a male teacher ?

Thursday, Postmedia received the letter from the lawyer Martz, who said Bryson would participate “in whatever appropriate process UBC might offer” to deal with the allegations, and expressed concern about my commentary reflecting “a homophobic, transphobic, anti-feminist bias.”

lol being homophobic or transphobic are somehow in the same league as being anti-feminist it seems.

I hope the student pursues whatever grievance processes are available to her, including gender-based and sexual harassment processes with the university, and private lawsuits.
