Write for Student Rights: Day of Action with Lyra Evans
On October 30, 2024, LGBT YouthLine hosted a virtual Day of Action for our Write for Student Rights campaign, featuring special guest Lyra Evans, Ottawa-Carleton District School Board trustee and Canada’s first openly trans school board trustee. Lyra shared her unique insights into how advocacy and organizing can protect and uplift 2SLGBTQ+ youth in Ontario schools.
In this session, we explore the current challenges and policies affecting queer, trans, and 2-Spirit youth in Ontario’s education system, and discuss ways the Ontario government and community allies can support safer, more inclusive learning environments.

sexuality never should be a public affair to be judged upon!!!
If only every person minded their own lives instead of ignorantly bullying based on generational heteronormative brainwashing, things would be fine. Also, I dont think the root of it is homo or trans phobia but a phobia of people simply NOT reproducing like a mindless breeder. In other words, those bullies will shame and harass heterosexuals & cis people for not procreating as if such act is what everyone's purpose in life or something. Disgusting inhumane imbeciles belong to their own planet . No one has the right to harm anyone.
Hate is the worst Crime . I suffered mentally and so did my kids . I thank God He gave me the strength to endure it, now I’m free to love . I wish this world could start Spreading Love the way they spread Hate . Love conquers ALL ❤️🌈🙏💪
as a kid underneath the transgender umbrella (agender) this rlly represents the feeling of it
"An alarm that nobody else hears" They get it
As a straight dude , why can't people just mind their own business . Every gender, orientation etc should be treated the same , None wrong , None special either.
The world would be a much better place if it weren’t for em homophobes and transphobes, plz just let us be and do ya own ass thing! These phobes need to be sued!
Misogyny not only hurts but causes WAY MORE DESTRUCTION and even bloodshed for all living forms worldwide all the time. Yet I didn't hear you and often any of the LGBT people speak up against it! You know it yourself that transphobia and homophobia themselves are both in direct correlation with misogyny and even have their roots in misogyny and are often in people who are extremely misogynistic as well. Yet I still don't hear any LGBT people speak up against misogyny even thought the number of people directly affacted by it is more than half the human population on this planet and the souls affected by it FAR exceeds even the whole human population existing. Then how come now a homophobe has to hide (a good thing) and as soon as they get exposed as antiLGBT they are banished by everyone but still misogynists even wide in the open continue their hate speech and delusions? How come still plenty even on TH-cam not only reject womens rights but even reject feminism without any consequences? Food for thought.
How did I only now just get this recommend. Hope the algorithm gives life to this old video too. It deserves way more attention! ❤️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
It won’t it’s like 9 years old 💀 + not that many people including me is homophobic anymore so they don’t bother checking the video even if it hits the algorithm
There's no such thing as straight everyone is bi frist then they find who they are we're all Bron different and that's truth there's no such thing as straight it's made up for Brain washing love u is love we're all meant be who we are god made this world and knew this was all plain just humans need wake up and be moor loving kind to each other
I mean, in the way that gay isn't a choice, neither is being straight, don't swing the same argument homophobes use for the gays at the straights, we're fighting for acceptance and understanding, not to shut down any one side. Also that just completely forgets the aces :( No one is bi first, gay first, striaght first, we're all just "us" first, then fall into labels we identify with and that resonate with us, or we don't find labels at all, and that's perfectly fine too :)
It hurts me deeply that when I came out to my mom, she immediately started yelling she wasn't going to refer to me as a girl because "for 18 years she's brought me up as a girl-chasing man and she'll never get used to it". During the same conversation, she suggested me talking to a therapist, but not because I have a hard time focusing on what people are telling me nor because I've experienced trauma that I never healed from, but just because I'm transgender. Then she tries to make a point by saying that trans people have miserable lives, which is actually kinda true, but how the hell will they NOT be miserable if transphobic people intentionally make it miserable? How the hell is her daughter supposed to live a happy life is she won't give her a chance? Stuff like that happens and then my parents wonder why I won't open up about my feelings to them? How can I when they try so hard to seem smart and educated just for them to make illogical conclusions and expect me to agree with them? Ugh...
Homophobia has never bothered me but that’s because I’m a psychopath and not because it’s not wrong
Be careful or you'll cut yourself on your edge kid.

Fuck god.
Thank you so much for making this. I get told that I'm gay for attention. I didnt choose to be gay. I am also trans neutral but most people dont know that. My friend made me a bracelet with the trans flag and the gay flag from scratch. I wish we had more people like this in the world
You are either born a male or a female. There is no in between nor can you change that.

Obviously, not everyone is hurt or the behaviors would have extinguished long ago.
It can't extinguish because it happens spontanously though.
Ah yes, allow me to *choose* to become part of the community that got sexually assaulted three times over the time I've attended my high school. I love running the risk of trauma because I wasn’t well received when I entered the men's room with the wrong person. That sounds like so much more fun than being accepted by every person on the face of the earth.
First of all being apart of the LGBTQ+ is not a choice, you can’t chose who you love. Secondly, it’s not the communities fault that someone sexually assaulted you, it’s whoever assaulted you’s fault. Just because you happened to be the victim of some bad people does not mean everyone is bad
@@-stormcloud-9670 Sarcasm must not be your strong suit. I was pointing out how ludicrous it is that people think it would be a choice when being LGBTQ+ comes with so many downsides. And I never said it's the victim's fault if they're sexually assaulted or that everyone is a bad person and I'm not sure where you even got that from
@@jamie6506 You can't help but be part of a community that you're literally born into. no choices just an unfortunate event which i still cannot get my head around. say if there was a god that made the choice of picking and choosing someones sex then why would they give us this burden by causing a lot of problems. that's why i've given up on beliving it's down on them it's just pure luck we're alive and bad luck to most that we cannot be free to live our short time on this planet.

Magdalen Burns RIP.
Exactly the reasons why I’m scared to come out, I’m a nonbinary, panromantic, greysexual. And I’ve already been outed by my mom for being pan to my family and her friends. My sister talked to me about how she didn’t agree with it but I guess I could also like girls, completely disregarding how I’m gender blind. She also said and I quote, “just don’t think you’re a guy... I’ll beet you up!” And then laughed like it was some kind of joke, almost my entire family is homophobic and transphobic. I was also told by my mother on my birthday sleepover to “keep my clothes on” “or else *friends dead names* parents will be called and you won’t see them again” I was disgusted she thought I would do that with my friends, I’m sure that being graysexual added to the situation. But what was gonna do? Tall back? No. I just said okay with a little smile on the brink of tears. I’m also not aloud to cuddle my friends (cuddling is how i communicate in a way). My mom has also said, not to me but to my dad “so *dead name* just gets to be gay!?” And “if we stay here she’s going to be a lesbian!” So yeah I don’t have the best relationship with anyone in my family. It actual pains me whenever I hear my dead name ands that’s what I’m called everyday because I don’t know what I even want to be called and even then I could never tell my family. I’m just done with society, I’m facing the facts. It would be better to not come out then deal with everything that comes with it(in my opinion), I’m simply not in the mental state to feel all that from a lot more people directly then I already do. Sorry this ended up being a rant, take care! Eat something and drink some water if you haven’t, Have a good day! <3 :] Edit: I think I’m unlabeled in both sexuality and gender
That really sucks, what's your name tho (NOT YOUR DEADNAME)
Why you break our nuts ? Shut up do what you mom and dad tell you . Stop judging them you will see when you will be parent that it’s not easy . Read books and stop telling everyone how hard it is to be privileged like you are . You are a horrible person , your problem is false problem . Who the f cares about the dumb things you are saying ? Greysexual ? Panromzntic ? Non binary Wtf is you talking about ? « I’m just done with society » blue hairs and 13 years old . My kid you deserve a boxing to wake up your mind . You don’t know anything about respect , and solidarity . Me , my problem , my feelings , my sexuality , my gender . Me me me , I , I , I. A selfish child that talk for hours about sex instead of working for hours to help the family of increase his assets . You are a horrible child . Just shut up and listen to your mom she gave birth to you .
@@olivieraton9591 What about you? You’re most likely an adult (based on this reply). An adult attacking a minor for what? Having opinions? Expressing how they feel? I do care about other people, I’ve just spent so long acting like I’m my family’s therapist that i suppressed my feelings. And yeah my problems may not be as big as other people’s but that doesn’t mean my feelings aren’t real. And why do I concern you? Why do my personal feelings concern you? I needed a place to vent and this seemed like a good place to. A safe place. But now it’s not. Now it’s a place where people’s feelings are discarded, because people like you decided people who just want a safe place don’t deserve that and that they should shut up. So you took the time to write this reply. Why are you here, in this comment section? On a video not meant for people like you unless you are willing to learn? Saying things that hurt. I want you to know that they hurt a lot. Why did you take the time? Perhaps it’s because you can’t leave people alone, and you need to learn. Because it’s what needs to happen, if it doesn’t you’ll keep spreading negativity. I hope you don’t understand the gravity of what you said. I hope you don’t understand. Why? Because I don’t want more reminders, I don’t want more reminders that so many people like you exist, it may not be your fault. Perhaps you were raised that way? One last thing. yes I am done with society, I am done with the human race at that. At least you got that right except I haven’t died my hair so no, you didn’t. Stop stereo typing people and please learn, please learn that what you’re saying and most likely thinking is not okay. -With good wishes, your local gay frog :]

… *I am not a daughter, but I’m not a soonnnn-* (Sorry.)
did they send me daughters? when I asked, for sons
Thanks. I'm lesbian and I'm hame Victoria.😘😘😘
Homophobia and transphobia makes you feel these things in the video. Even the person sending the hate, they feel it deep down, and push it away, unlike others who are the victums, and aren't able to hide it as well....
When people say I can't marry the one I love. It feels like I'm supposed to be supportive of there rights because I'm not as important as they are. When I look around at the crowd smiling and cheering I get an empty sensation when I look beside me and see a nobody there when it comes to getting married. It's like A dream without being able to make that dream a reality. An imaginary wonder that plagues the mind and then the body aches. As I look at my partner I'm forced to disappoint. How is that
Evangelicals said gay marriage was slippery slope, everyone ignored them and supported it. Now they've been proven right. We have MAP's, kids being groomed in Kindergarten etc... Crazy world, LGBT is religion and needs to treated the same as all religions
Thanks this is very close to how I feel when attacked by homophobes. Feels like a shark ripping away at my flesh piece by piece tearing down what humanity makes me feel like a complete person. Like a bomb going off in my face when someone says something hateful. When there feels like no escape like everywhere you go a cage surrounds me separating me from everyone else. The loneliness in the crowd eats away at me with desire to want to be acknowledged. How good of a description is this?
How can you guys not think this video sends the message across? Unless you are gifted with the rare ability to just shrug every encounter of homophobia or transphobia, whether it's towards you specifically or someone near you, the way they present it in the video is exactly how it's supposed to feel. When I hear transphobic or homophobic remarks, it eats away at my mind like a constant itch for the rest of the day. If a kid hears this stuff, they grow up thinking it's normal. Excellent job, YL.
Wow ... how can you exist outside your bubble?
To all the commenters that ignore the issues going on around them, you are part of the problem. I know you are just kids and I know how brutal High and Middle School is like, but idly standing by results in people feeling the way described in this video. The people who can't ignore those remarks because they are core concepts to their identity. They are the ones suffering.
I don't get the message video is sending , I'm a young asian trans myself and I could not relate to the video ..... its shocking at how much homophobia and transphobia there is out their agaiinst us lgbt people x
I’m happy you haven’t been hurt like that, friend..
Thank you for this. I'm pretty optimistic here about the future. The younger generations are already less likely to be homophobic than the older ones. Of course, there's still a lot of progress to make, but I can at least see the signs of change in our youth.
eventually, all the homophobes will die out :)
