A feminist group concerned about the social pressure placed on children to become transgender has had its fundraising stopped after a “bullying” campaign by trans activists.

Transgender Trend said it was considering taking legal action against activists for claiming that a resource pack that it publishes for schools was “transphobic”, included “hate speech” and was “a modern edition of Mein Kampf”.

Why would anyone entrust children to people with a delusional disorder?

Because trans groups seem to want to put children on a pathway of puberty blockers, sex hormones for life and life-changing surgery. Surgery and drugs that will likely leave a child sterile, before they're even old enough to understand the decision they're making (or is being made for them). No other branch of medicine will allow this.

One of the cores of feminism has been that women, not men, decide what is best for women. So why isn't it equally the case that trans groups are best placed to decide what is best for trans children?
