Birmingham, located in the West Midlands in the UK, has been the centre of a fierce fight over LGBT+ education for a number of months, with parent groups protesting outside of primary schools following the government decision to include LGBTQ+ education in school curriculums.
Now a fundamentalist Christian group from the United States, 'Tradition, Family, and Property', has begun to spread anti LGBTQ+ literature around the city. Residents were surprised to discover the leaflets titled 'Gender Theory: Diversity or 21st Century Totalitarianism?' in their letterboxes on Tuesday morning.
The leaflets called itself a 'tool against gender theory' and warns that LGBTQ+ activist are 'imposing anti-Christian and anti-god views on your children'. The leaflet also made transphobic comments saying that gender theory is 'delirious, ideology claiming everyone can fancy themselves to be a man, woman, neither, or both at the same time according to mere whims'.
The leaflets also included a picture of a child sitting on Santa's knee. The reason? Who knows.
A local resident, Janique James, spoke to local newspaper, the Birmingham Mail, to say 'This leaflet is disgusting. It's wrong a transphobic 'Catholic' hate group is posting this rubbish through my letterbox. Surely they have better things to do?
'God knows where it's come from but I'm not surprised I've received it. people have been protesting outside schools against sex education and LGBT+ education in the local area. One thing is for sure, the leaflet is going straight into the cat litter. I've got not time for homophobia and transphobia.'
Another resident said 'Disgusting, but why brings Father Christmas into this?!'
Some residents have also reported that the leaflets have been handed out in person in the local shopping centre.
The leaflet also offers readers the chance to receive a larger 64 page booklet for £5, which claims to answer questions such as 'What is Gender Theory?', 'What is anti-Science Theory?', and 'What is Queer Theory?'.
Tradition, Family and Property was founded in the 1960's in Brazil, and has spent fifty years promoting extreme Catholic views, including campaigning against LGBTQ+ rights, as well as reproductive rights. The group also operates in the United States under the name The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property. They have campaigned in Brazil, the US, Chile, Argentina, South Africa, and now the UK.
