Should we march?

What would it take to make a decent number of women join a public demonstration in London calling for an end to this nonsense? Just how nonsensical would it have to get for you individually to attend such a March?

I'm not as well informed as a lot of these posters, I'm not sure exactly what might happen in Parliament today. I'm getting scared. Should I be scared? If I should be scared I think we need to march.

Count me in as well.

Im up for marching.

We need to do something visible that will get picked up by the media and get people talking.

They can only win if they silence us, even@mnhq are trying to silence us.

So we need to shout louder, and on the streets if thats what it takes to be heard.

I'm up for marching.

Sign me up. I'm sick of this shit and I don't want my daughter growing up in a world where her voice is so belittled.

Or do the utter opposite. How’s about we recreate the suffragettes? It’s been 100 years.

Manfriday might organise it.

TulipsInAJug · 03/07/2018 13:54

Yes we should. Thanks for raising it. Of course we should.

Writersblock2 · 03/07/2018 13:54

So we identify as men.

And I’m not being flippant. Well, partly. But it proves the point.

i am seeing marches as such male friendly spaces though. anybody male bodied can intimidate and over power so easily.

If they don’t want us to march maybe we should march. We should coincide it with something else. My brain is starting to tick.

If we are doing this, it needs to be a co-ordinated effort. And all of the key groups need to be involved. If enough of them comment here then perhaps we can get our heads together.

Let’s do it!

Just because it would be difficult doesn't mean that we shouldn't attempt it.

The violence of the activists and suppression of legal discussion would make it hard to organise a March at this stage. that of course is all part of the activists plan Angry
