https://l-ou-ise.com/breaking-silence My very first encounter with JY happened towards the end of 2012. Those who know me are aware that at the time, I was a very dedicated fan of a Youtube band of six sisters called Cimorelli. I had noticed (because I'm smart like that) that the girls were not always the ones answering their Facebook comments, so I took it upon myself to figure out who was. And there was JY. I don't think I thought much of it, although I do remember that knowing that a 26 year-old male (JY was unequivocally identifying as male at the time) would spend their day pretending to be a group of girls and answering their mostly young and female fans was a little bit odd (Now known as) Jessica Simpson, commonly known by her former legal name, Jessica Yaniv, is a Canadian transgender activist in British Columbia who is best known for filing at least 15 complaints of discrimination on the basis of gender identity against various beauty salons after they refused to wax her male genitalia. The complaints were filed with the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal in 2018 and 2019. It was the first major case of alleged transgender discrimination in retail in Canada. In 2019, the Tribunal rejected her complaints and ruled Yaniv had racist motives. In following years, Yaniv has gone on to make additional complaints of discrimination, libel and privacy breach. In 2019, she displayed a taser in a livestreamed YouTube video, resulting in her arrest. Yaniv was found guilty of a charge of possession of a prohibited weapon, and sentenced to a conditional discharge, along with receiving probation and a firearms prohibition. #jonathanyaniv #jessicayaniv #transgender #humanrights
