For streaming read steaming. As in pissed off scared and frustrated.

Thank you all. I spent a lot of time thinking about sharing the petition on Facebook and did so yesterday. 2likes. One was my mother. I have been streaming about this issue for a while now and only just feel confident to add to this board. I'm practising my articulation here so that I can speak more in real life. I want people to know about this, to care, to give even a tiny little bit of a shit about women's voices and our rights to privacy dignity and safety. I will share it again. I feel like sharing it again everyday until someone comments.

Maybe we need a new thread with that question?

Ereshkigal · 10/05/2018 22:29

Maybe something like "do you think women and girls' rights, safety, privacy and dignity matter?"

Exactly this!

Thank you errol that's a good start.

LikeAZombie · 09/05/2018 23:49

Thank you something to think about and I will make a post and share tomorrow.
I signed because I want women's voices to be heard. I want sex segregated spaces to be protected, because men as a class are a danger to women, I believe gender is a social construct we should be dismantling not encouraging. because I don't feel like a woman I just fucking am one.
I'm slightly scared of being called out and twisted into a bigot. Or worse.
I posted on another thread about having my name reported on Facebook so instead of using my initials I have to use my full unique name. The day after I liked fair play for women and this never happens pages. Maybe I'm paranoid but after reading about posie parker and linda it's got me thinking about it again.
