A trans high school teacher sparked backlash after photos and videos show her teaching while sporting massive “clownish” prosthetic breasts — but the Canadian school board is “standing behind” the vilified teacher.

Kayla Lemieux, a shop teacher at Oakville Trafalgar High School in Ontario, recently went viral after students shared videos and images of her school attire, which includes giant fake breasts with protruding nipples.

The Halton District School Board Chair Margo Shuttleworth said the board is committed to protecting any person’s “gender rights” and “they are standing behind the teacher.”

“This teacher (who teaches shop) is an extremely effective teacher,” Shuttleworth said. “All the kids really love being in the class.”

But the Toronto Sun reported that at least one disturbed student shared their thoughts on social media.

The student said, “the kids here most definitely don’t think it’s normal… but realistically we can’t say anything. Last year, the teacher was a man. I don’t think the school can fire him.”

Last year, the teacher was known to students and staff as a male and went by a man’s name.

Shuttleworth emphasized that “the teacher is completely accepted and welcomed into the school community as far as the staff is concerned.”

Meghan McCain wrote an op-ed for the Daily Mail, saying that the school district’s stance is “final proof we are paralyzed by insane political correctness.”

“This is not about gender rights or tolerance or transgenderism. Of course, adults are free to express their gender identity and sexuality in a way of their choosing,” McCain wrote.

“This is about political correctness and the overwhelming fear of offending going so far beyond anything resembling reason that absolutely anything and everything is now accepted, no matter how bizarre it is, or in this case, harmful to children’s education,” she continued.

“Society must weigh the right of this teacher to dress like an Asian porn character against a child’s right to learn in a safe and sane environment. And this school has sided with the teacher.”
