“Mr. Menno” is the stage name of Menno Kuijper, a Dutch anti-transgender extremist and separatist based in the UK.

Background

Menno Kuijper was born June 19, 1976. Kuijper held numerous roles in marketing and social media from 1996 to 2012. From 2012 to 2021 Kuijper was head of design and production at mobile marketing firm Gappt.

Anti-trans activism

Since 2022 Kuijper has been director of communications for anti-trans group The Gay Men’s Network.

Kuijper considers the trans rights movement to be “gender woo woo,” promoting the outdated terminology “homosexual male” and other binary ideas about traits and behaviors.

In 2022 Kuijper created a “sea shanty” for queer trans-exclusionary group LGB Alliance.

Kuijper appears in the 2023 anti-trans proaganda series Uncomfortable Truths.

Kuijper has appeared in the media with other anti-trans extremists, including Graham Linehan, joey brite, and Isabella Malbin.
