A transgender teacher with prosthetic Z-cup breasts has finally been put on leave from her Canadian school after pictures emerged of her wearing men’s clothing.

Kayla Lemieux, who claims the breasts are real and the result of a medical condition, has come under fire for her provocative attire, with parents previously claiming she ‘mocks women and the education experience.’

The Halton District School Board confirmed she had been placed on paid leave on Tuesday – though she continues to be paid for her role at Oakville Trafalgar High School.

‘While not currently on an active assignment, the teacher remains employed with the HDSB (Halton District School Board),’ board spokesperson Heather Francey told the Toronto Sun

It came as parents of students lined up to attack the schoolboard for its failure to impose a stricter dress code on Lemieux sooner.

One mom told the board at a meeting on Wednesday evening that it was imperative that ‘forms of identity and expression presented in the school environment be scrutinized against the child’s safeguarding practices.’

Lemieux was not mentioned by name during the tense meeting but  

The school has had three bomb threats since September 2022. 

Lemieux has bizarrely insisted her breasts are natural and a result of a condition called ‘gigantomastia’ – though she admits she never received a formal medical diagnosis.

She also claims to be intersex and not transgender.

But her account has been called into question by Lemieux’s neighbors who claim to have seen her out and about in men’s clothing – minus the prosthetics and wig.

A neighbor identified that person as being Lemieux. They were later seen driving in and out of the apartment block and walking on the sidewalk later on.

Pictures published by the New York Post showed a man who is believed to be Lemieux dressed down without the breasts and in scruffy, gray clothing. 

‘He wears prosthetic breasts extremely infrequently,’ the neighbor said. ‘He puts the breasts on to teach, occasionally when he goes for a walk or when the cops visit.’

A law enforcement source also says that officers – both uniformed and plainclothes – do regular welfare checks at her apartment.

The neighbor claims that usually, Lemieux’s outfit is completely unmissable, having started going out in public as a woman in May 2022.

‘I was driving past. You can see the breasts from so far away when you’re driving,’ he said. ‘He put the whole outfit on and just walked up and down Guelph Line — no bags, just walking. Everyone slows down because you can’t believe what they’re seeing.’

Lemieux’s appearance has been the subject of fierce debate.

This week, Ontario’s Minister for Education Stephen Lecce told the Toronto Star: ‘Halton parents are rightfully outraged at what’s taking place.’

‘The welfare of kids should prevail in our judgements in school boards and in government.’ 

‘I’m not wearing prosthetic breasts. These are real,’ Canadian Lemieux told the New York Post last week while explaining how she is not ‘transgender’ but was born ‘intersex.’

‘My condition is classified as gigantomastia, which can also be referred to as macromastia or breast hypertrophy,’ Lemieux said, although she noted how she had never received a formal medical diagnosis.

Students shared videos of Lemieux in other schools while she recovered from a foot injury, showing her walking with crutches

Until this week, the teacher has had the backing of her schoolboard who said the issue was a ‘personnel matter.’

The district also claimed that interfering or criticizing the teacher would go against the Ontario Human Rights Code.

‘The HDSB recognizes the rights of students, staff, parents/guardians and community members to equitable treatment without discrimination based upon gender identity and gender expression. Gender identity and gender expression are protected grounds under the Ontario Human Rights Code,’ the board said in a statement.
