We totally need one at Lands End... I wonder if Sticker Woman might make a detour on the way to the Plymouth LWS meeting?

Wouldn't it be great if you could do a little 'penis' trail across the country - like orienteering where you get to tick them off on a chart, or capture them like Pokemon Go!

It leads on the 'trans hatred' thing though and lets TRAs have their say before the feminists. The feminist view is rushed through and not fully explored. This is still a biased article.

Where do you get these stickers from? I'm tempted to have a go myself.

Love the John O'Groats one.

Sadly there is no comments section on the Guardian article. They clearly don't want to know the publics opinion on this.

I think it's notable that "trans hatred" is in inverted commas both times in headline and body of article.

Progress?

Enjoyed this para:

"The stickers first caused controversy in London this month when they were stuck around the city, including outside the offices of the LGBT advocacy group Stonewall, as well as the Guardian."

Nice work, girls.
