Crazy that we have to give feedback to try and get LGB Alliance removed AND Mermaids added - it makes it look a lot like Twitch is picking transphobes deliberately when I'm sure they aren't...

100%

It's worth noting too that the recent controversy is from outside of the trans community and stems from misinformation by a few journalists, alongside hate from the influencial anti-trans group "LGB Alliance" in retaliation to court procedings against them. A journalist posed as a kid and got advice to help with physical dysphoria, they also browsed a forum for kids to freely talk about their experiences.

Mermaids are a fantastic charity and have really helped so many kids across TERF island. Concerns on binders and giving advice to kids etc is a non-issue, from people who don't understand how they work.

I don't just speak for myself when I say the trans community stands with Mermaids and all the work they've done, individuals in the charity might have some hang-ups but stricter policies (which they've already implemented) should solve that. They have literally saved the lives of kids stuggling with difficult and confusing feelings, dealing with hate crimes against children and operating a crisis line to those that need it.

Absolutely has to be added

Our work

Mermaids supports transgender, nonbinary and gender-diverse children and young people until their 20th birthday, as well as their families and professionals involved in their care. We also currently offer web chat support to students up to the age of 25.

Transgender, nonbinary and gender-diverse children and teens need support and understanding, as well as the freedom to explore their gender identity. Whatever the outcome, Mermaids is committed to helping families navigate the challenges they may face.

100% On board with this choice, Mermaids have been great to my friends. I hope more trans streamers and Allies support this.
