Surely a time pitch-forks at dawn grows closer? We've surpassed, "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche."

Bullschitt or otherwise, the point remains well made.

simplify it even more... person with XX or XY=these cannot be changed. Yes I know genetically there persons in history with 3 sex chromosomes, but that percentage is very, very small. Just do a test for the sex chromosomes.

So, was the victim an actual biological woman or a transgender man-to-artificial-woman with an open surgical wound? If the latter, then neither "woman" nor "person with a vagina" is accurate.

A simple search of Rodney Rude would be prudent. His song 'You can't say CUNT in Canada' is a true story. But ' gateway to her guts' may be the best description of all time...

The trial case provided the explicit context of the rape of women by men.

The legal principle that was contested had to do with the use of "Judicial Notice" whereby a court may accept an assertion, or an assumption, as a judicial fact without the necessity of evidence having been submitted to establish a finding of fact during the trial.

It would be impermissible for a judge to draw a conclusion based on "speculative reasoning" rather than on evidence or on invocation of Judicial Notice.

-- QUOTE

Quote: "Where a judge relies on a generalized expectation as itself a factual conclusion, what the judge is really doing is taking judicial notice, which is subject to a stringent test — a standard that will rarely, if ever, be met by a generalized expectation about people due to the variability of human experience and behaviour. And where a factual conclusion is based neither on the evidence, nor on judicial notice, then it is speculation, which is an error of law."

"[The] trial judge relied on [...] a reasonable generalized expectation about general human perception [of] a sexual act of this nature [...], and ordinary people would not generally require special knowledge to assess this sort of evidence. [The] trial judge did not treat this as an indisputable fact but instead used it as a benchmark to assess the complainant’s evidence in light of the totality of the evidence."

The appeals court and the Supreme Court took on the case to clarify the trial judge's use of "generalized expectation". This was analyzed in terms of its "common sense".

Emphasis: common sense generalized expectation.

--VAGINA

The court's opinions used the word vagina (or variation) many times.

The compound term "penile‑vaginal" appeared 6 times, each in the phrase "penile-vaginal penetration" (5) or "penile-vaginal intercourse" (1); the term "vaginal" was used 18 times, "vaginal intercourse" (11) or "vaginal penetration" (7).

Regarding intercourse and penetration, the term "penile-vaginal' or "vaginal" was used with "the feeling of" 13 times in regard to the direct evidence given by the victim of the assault.

At issue was the common-sense notion that a victim might or might not be mistaken about the feeling of penile-vaginal or penile penetration.

In addition, the term "vagina" appeared alone 7 times, once in the phrase "a person with a vagina".

--THE JUSTICE SAID

From Justice Sheilah Martin:

[108]

The Court of Appeal also considered that the trial judge’s conclusion about the complainant’s perception of penile‑vaginal penetration was not the proper subject of judicial notice, as it engaged questions of “neurology (the operation of the body’s sensory system), physiology (the impact of alcohol on perception, memory and the body’s sensory system) and psychiatry (the impact of alcohol and/or trauma on perception and memory)” (para. 67). With respect, the court’s analysis on this point illustrates the potentially absurd consequences of the rule against ungrounded common-sense assumptions. It belies belief that questions of neurology, physiology, or psychiatry would be engaged by testimony that an intoxicated witness was certain they were physically assaulted in some other way, such as a punch to the face or a kick to the shins, such that expert evidence would be required to support that testimony — yet this is exactly the type of evidence the court implied was necessary for the trial judge to reach the conclusion he did in the context of penile-vaginal penetration. Even putting aside the impracticalities associated with finding experts willing and able to testify on such issues, such testimony is simply not necessary to establish what the trial judge determined to be what happened, having heard the complainant’s testimony and considering it in light of all the other evidence.

[109]

Where a person with a vagina testifies credibly and with certainty that they felt penile‑vaginal penetration, a trial judge must be entitled to conclude that they are unlikely to be mistaken. While the choice of the trial judge to use the words “a woman” may have been unfortunate and engendered confusion, in context, it is clear the judge was reasoning that it was extremely unlikely that the complainant would be mistaken about the feeling of penile‑vaginal penetration because people generally, even if intoxicated, are not mistaken about that sensation. In other words, the judge’s conclusion was grounded in his assessment of the complainant’s testimony. The Court of Appeal erred in finding otherwise.
