Observatoire de la petite sirène (OPS) is a French anti-transgender organization opposed to affirmative models of care for trans and gender diverse youth.
Background
Observatoire de la petite sirène [Little Mermaid Watch] was founded in 2021 by three psychoanalysts, largely in response to the 2020 documentary Petite Fille (Little Girl), about transgender child Sasha and her family.
OPS is also known as Observatoire des discours idéologiques sur l’enfant et l’adolescent (Observatory of ideological discourses on children and adolescents).
OPS was a signatory to the 2024 anti-trans petition WHO Decides.
In 2024, their front page linked to the anti-trans web farm largely developed by anti-trans extremist Stella O’Malley of Genspect:
