Thursday 4 August 2022 03:13 PM Trans charity Mermaids uses beloved British Mr Men characters to promote ... trends now
A transgender charity is using characters from the beloved Mr Men series to promote its gender ideology.
Mermaids, a charity which advocates for and supports transgender children, posted pictures of the characters with phrases such as 'trans women belong in sports'.
It also changed the nouns for some of the characters from 'Little Miss' and 'Mr' to 'Little Mx' - a gender neutral title for people who are non-binary.
The unexpected crossover, which was posted on Mermaids' social media yesterday, has prompted fury online with people accusing the charity of using the characters to appeal to children.
It comes after Stonewall was forced to row back on a tweet in which it claimed children as young as two could be transgender, something that prompted a wave of criticism.
This furore did not stop Mermaids, which is the largest child transgender charity in the UK, posting mock ups of Mr Men characters which have become a common sight in family homes across the country.
In the post the character 'Little Miss Tiny' had her name changed to 'Little Mx Trans Women Belong in Sports'
Meanwhile 'Mr Perfect' had his name changed to 'Little Mr Protect Trans Youth' in the social media post
The controversial transgender children's charity renamed 'Mr Marvelous' to 'Little Mx Trans and Fabulous'
It also gave 'Little Miss Hug' a makeover by changing her name to 'Little Miss Support Trans Rights'
In a tweet posted yesterday, the charity revealed pictures of the characters with the changes and the caption: 'Which Little Miss Mermaids edition are you?'
It included four pictures, with 'Little Miss Tiny' changed to 'Little Mx Trans Women Belong in Sports', 'Mr Perfect' changed to 'Little Mr Protect Trans Youth', 'Mr Marvelous' changed to 'Little Mx Trans and Fabulous' and 'Little Miss Hug' changed to 'Little Miss Support Trans Rights'.
This prompted accusations that the charity is using the beloved children's characters to promote its gender ideology to young children.
