Transsexualism: An Argument for Social Tolerance

Paper Summary:

This paper reviews the liberal attitudes of the Canadian society, the only country worldwide that accepts multiculturalism as an official policy. This paper takes a look at this liberalism and then discusses the controversial issue of transsexualism, an issue calling for social tolerance and one that is still to be resolved.

From the Paper:

"Canadian society likes to pride itself on the fact that it is relatively accepting and non-prejudiced. For example, it is the only country in the world that embraces multiculturalism as an official policy. Women are far less discriminated against here than in many other countries of the world. Furthermore, the Canadian Parliament has just legalized same sex marriage, thus taking a huge step towards overcoming heterosexism (Canadians for Equal Marriage). Yet there is still one thing that evokes discrimination and even hatred among many Canadians - and that is transsexualism."
