Trans Rights Charity Upsets the LGBTQ+ Applecart with Lawsuit.

 I was reading this Telegraph article with some interest. 

In a nutshell the Children's Trans Rights charity Mermaids has taken the LGB Alliance charity to court, ostensibly to strip them of their charitable status because it spreads "Transphobia".

The Radical Conservative opinion is cheering along because it shows the LGBTQ+ community, the wokerati and the radical left eating itself as different factions vie for their " 'uman rights ".

But the reality is slightly more subtle.

Basically, the LGB Alliance is of the view that you can't change biological sex. A pretty sound scientific base to stand on I would have thought. But Mermaids doesn't like that because it goes against their ideology.

I'd have thought science and biology trump ideology any day. But we'll see. Courts are very strange places these days.

This is a lot to do with the ideological fight for children. That Mermaids are of the opinion that anyone professing an attraction to the same sex is trans and should therefore transition. LGB Alliance saying that's harmful to the child and same sex attraction should be supported because the kid might not be trans. 

At the very least, there shouldn't be glib assumption either way, but a very detailed investigation should be made into the child's psychology and the reasons for their attraction to the same sex. Transitioning "just because" is provably harmful, especially when it goes against the actual psychology of the child.

The child may be trans, it may be Gay. But the child should be supported and allowed to become whatever they desire without political or ideological pressure from a supposed charity.

The LGB alliance seem to be taking a more supportive and relaxed stance on this. Basically let the child decide, all in good time.

Mermaids appear to me to be taking a more ideologically activist stance, trying to actively win the hearts and minds of children in order to "swell the ranks", normalise transitioning and I suppose justify their charitable status. Anyone in their way (for instance saying why can't the kid be gay?) gets trampled or sued.

I know which stance I'd prefer to support.

Mainly because forced transitioning by any means reminds me of the forced transitioning of gay men to women in the Middle East and elsewhere. It's an ideology that should have long since been abandoned.

Just another example of Trans Radical Activists trying to gain ideological dominance. You have to ask yourself why that is. Why not just let children and adults decide organically whether to transition? Why do organisations like Mermaids and the now discredited Tavistock centre have to push the trans agenda so radically? It's almost like they are being told to do it. And then that makes you think why? and by Whom?

Yet another example of the Trans Rights Activists kicking the doors in of established science and human rights. You don't gain rights by trampling on the rights of others. Doing so instantly removes your legitimacy in my book. Have some respect.
