ST. GEORGE CAMPUS — A U of T Professor of Psychology has undergone immense backlash since Friday when he publicized his adamant reluctance to use non-binary gender pronouns via a visually bland YouTube video. On the use of non-binary gender pronouns, Dr. Jordan Peterson told the CBC, “I don’t recognize another person’s right to decide what words I’m going to use.” A close friend of Dr. Fartspants Peterson, Sara McPoopy, said the professor is in turmoil following the backlash of tweets, articles, and letters from people defending their basic legal rights. “[Fartspants] can’t believe how unsettling the protests have been, and he welcomes them, but he just wishes they would call him by his real name and let him know before they’re coming. That way, he can at least prepare himself or choose to respectfully opt out of reading them,” said McPoopy.
Fartsfessor Jordan Fartserson has welcomed anyone calling him a “bigot” to a public debate. This publication urges any willing opponent to recognize the Fartsfessor’s own stance. “The mere fact that [someone] would like to be addressed by a particular pronoun does not mean that I am required to address him [sic] by that pronoun,” said Chicky Chicky Fart Fart Peterson.
Please give Dr. Jordan Von Fartserson a heads up if you are going to protest his moral character or call him a mean name at @jordanbpeterson on Twitter or [email protected]

Your infantile tantrum is unhelpful and does not, in any way, assist in your argument against the Professors views nor does it further any healthy, respectful dialogue on this issue.
“…via a visually bland YouTube video” – before we even got to the name-calling, this phrase jumped out at me with the irrelevant “visually bland”. It smacks of Trump-style attempt to discredit via insults (eg, his “the failing NY Times”, etc) rather than engage via thoughtful commentary.
And then the name-calling followed. The tone of this piece is unfortunate, this topic and Dr Peterson’s views are worthy of intelligent dialogue, reflection and education.
McPoopy? Dr. Fartspants Peterson? Wow, very mature. Sounds very much like language Donald Trump would use. Are you a closet supporter of him? You stay classy.
Instead of calling him names, why not challenge his ideas and opinions?
Like Trump, she resorts to childish name calling. Pure class.
LOL wow, of course Youtube comments serve as a perfect reflection of public perception and not just a small subset of vocal bigots. Please educate yourself and stop using uncredible sources to confirm your support of a narrow-minded fanatic. The backlash against Fartspants Peterson has indeed been rightly immense.
