Their campaign states We believe it’s wrong for children to be labelled masculine or feminine on the basis of clothing or play/activity preferences and in some cases to be led to believe that they might be ‘trapped in the wrong body.' These rigid gender definitions are deeply regressive and could possibly encourage body dysphoria. The numbers of children, particularly girls, seeking help has increased at an alarming rate. [1]

The current goals of the Alliance are: 1. Press Pause on Gender Recognition Reform Bill Scotland, 2. Stopping the teaching of gender identity in schools, 3. Get fair representation in all government discussions on LGB issues, 4. Highlight the dangers of medicalising “gender non-conforming” children [2].
