This is shocking.
Being a transgender is not (so they say) a medical condition.
The Equality Act protected characteristic does not require medical diagnosis.
Yet the EqA protected characteristic is being used as a lever to remove safeguards from extreme medical treatment

Their case is that whatever safeguards are put in place around "trans children" should be compared to "non trans children": as if the EqA was there to protect people's right to be sterilised without consent!
No one is sterilising non trans children to make them look better
