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.
