There was a story a week ago about a law in Canada that says a trans-gendered must be treated as the gender they claim regardless of plumbing.
Well a twenty-something male told his car insurance company he was identifying as female to save almost $1400 every 6 months on his/her car insurance.
Insurance company balked and now we have a full fledged gender court case.

That's the slippery slope with LGBTQ affirmative action... anyone can claim status and it's really hard to disprove!

Well I know what we will be telling insurance when my son turns 16. Even if he dresses like a boy and likes girls what can they say if you tell them he identifies as a girl

First off, saving $2800/year...what kind of car are they insuring?!?! Secondly, it's a sad day if it's not thrown out...

It's the daily mail, but more information.

Why?

Are trying to say that the obvious double standard is legit?

No one should be charged different rates for gender anyhow.

Auto insurance companies are total crooks-and most of the crap they pull is stuff mafia folk got sent to prison for. Screw those bastards!!

Snipe if you want, but fair is fair.

And from a legal point of view, this is a better mousetrap.

I’d love to see some insurance companies try and argue this one.

They are gonna get their asses handed to them. This idea is the perfect way to stick it to the man!

I’d totally do this if I were younger and the rates were so much different. Makes up to about age 25 play something lime 3x as much as females in that age group.

I never had a wreck back then, but ended up paying through the nose-because of my plumbing.

I see. So, if you detest the unscrupulous standards of the insurance industry, apply some of those same detested standards for your own personal gain also as you see fit. Its fair for you to use them, just not others you do not like. Fair is fair, right?
