A Canadian journalism professor recently locked down her X account, previously known as Twitter, and faced the backlash of former NCAA swimmer Riley Gaines after suggesting that parents should expose their children to the genitals of adults.
Gaines, an advocate for women’s sports and a critic of the transgender agenda, was one of many people who reacted to the comments made by University of British Columbia professor Katja Thieme.
According to reports from the U.K.’s Daily Mail, Thieme had posted a video on Twitter of Gaines speaking in defense of female athletes against potential intrusion by transgender-identifying participants.
Last month, Thieme tweeted her response to this video which caused widespread disapproval.
She commented, “Hey, want to know one of my all-time excellent parenting ideas?”
The radical, far-left teacher added, “Let. Little. Children. See. Penises. And. Vulvas. Of. Various. Ages. And. Sizes. In. A. Casual. Normalized. Totally. Safe. Way. The world will thank you for it. And so will those children when they grow up.”
She also referred to Gaines as “whiny” and a “transphobe,” and stated that female athletes who express discomfort with males in their locker rooms only fuel “anti-trans activism.”
On July 10, a tweet prompted numerous reactions, leading Thieme to adjust her account settings to private. In response to the post, one individual remarked.
“This is the absolute definition of grooming. Regrettably, it seems unlikely that any disciplinary action was taken by the university due to the prevalence of liberalism in Canada and academia.”
Gaines later came across an article from The Mail and provided her own assessment of the situation.
She suggested that Thieme should be held accountable in a court of law.
“You. Are. Deranged. And. Should. Be. In. Prison. I’d tag you, but, naturally, you made your account private,” Gaines wrote.
She added, “If you need a guest lecturer for you [SIC] course, let me know. In the meantime, someone should check her search history.”

Gaines faced a difficult challenge competing against Lia Thomas, a member of the University of Pennsylvania’s swim team.
Even more troubling was that she had to share a locker room with him, an experience which has spurred her to become a passionate advocate for safeguarding women and girls from male athletes who are increasingly engaging in sports alongside them, as well as invading their private spaces.

This has to come from us." pic.twitter.com/O8YxRoyYkK

Neither Thieme nor her university has responded to the professor’s tweet — nor Gaines’ response.
On the University of British Columbia website, Thieme lists her gender pronouns on her professional page.
She also says her areas of study include “gender and sexuality” as well as “political movements.”
professor has no need to be around kids after saying that bs, she needs a good old ass whooping………
Thieme is just another groomer endangering children. Jail time is in her future.
Notice she inadvertently admits it is NOT normal. If it were, it wouldn’t need to be “normalized”. She merely claims it should be normalized, without even a weak argument.
Men have been trying to get into women’s bathrooms since the beginning of time it is only recently that we have had enough idiots stupid enough to let them ..I instructed my girls if they see a naked man in their toilet and he flashes his wiener at her ..to take her foot and kick their genitalia until they limp or crawl out of there
If it happens in school because of a stupid school board decision, have her get a a group of like minded girls to always go to the bathroom together. The first and every time a mentally sick male who thinks/claims to be a female enters have one or two of them kick him hard to remnd him he is male and not wanted. The rest of the girls swear it didn’t happen, the guy hit its self to cause an issue. After a few times even an idiot should get the message.
This “professor” has a degree in JOURNALISM. She is not QUALIFIED to question or debate Riley Gaines. Just another liberal hack.
first of all parents, yes PARENTS, who get to say when a female child should see a picture of a penis, not a real one! whoever thinks this is ok, is a definate perv.!!!! there is already too many rapes with grown men and little girls, this type of nonsense, would only heighten the man’s sexual desire!! there is sex traficking which i guess this so called teacher thinks is ok! this makes me sick and I hope this person gets their just due
If parents do not want their kids exposed to this perverse behavior, that’s it! Game over. Take your act somewhere else. What part of no are you not getting?
