This sheet might be helpful.

I agree but it's really hard to explain on a sticker!

meg70 · 25/09/2019 19:00

I really don't think women 'out there' know about this issue. I live in a pretty middle-class very left wing area and I only know about it - recently- because of mumsnet. I have spoken to 3 like-minded women (best friend, good friend, sister) and people don't seem to know that the majority of trans 'women' keep their penis. DP (man, quite feminist also) doesn't seem to think it can be true. Does anyone have any pointers of where people can get a good summary of the issues? I've googled 'cotton ceiling' (as one issue) myself and mentioned to others but again I don't think people believe that's a real 'thing'. So anyway I agree with PPs that the stickers would only be sending a message to people who already know about this, others just wouldn't understand it - so an explanation is also required IMO.

Ordered from Standing Up for Women. For balance, as suggested on a previous thread I may also make some which say ' Penis owners are women if they say they are. If you do not agree you are a TRANSPHOBIC BIGOT.' Seems fair.

People have smiled at me sticking them up, too.

Although what’s best of ALL is when you come across one that wasn’t you.

Someone saw me sticking one to a door in a women's loo. She crossly walked over to it to look, she read it and smiled

Now I’m smiling too.

GC feminism is contagious! 😷

I love this!
I've actually made my own, on plain white stickers with the symbol for woman (you know the one I mean) with various phrases around the idea that women don't have penises / are adult human female etc so they're all different!

The Stickerwoman movement reminds me of the protagonist in Alone un Berlin. Sobering that this is what it’s come to in the UK in 2019. Hard to believe that stating biological fact is heresy.

I think stickers are an excellent way of spreading thought provoking ideas.
There is a long history of political fly posting on this country- Sticker Woman is simply carrying on in a distinguished tradition

If not, all those people with numbers on theirs are gonna be getting visits from the PC PC...

BeyondAvoidant · 24/09/2019 18:02

Someone stickered my wheely bin. I'm fairly sure it's legal to stick stickers on bins.

MrsFogi · 24/09/2019 17:45

Tracy - why are you asking if it is legal? Perhaps to scare off a few people who may have decided to become StickerWomen? I think many women are so cross that the answer to your question from them is "I don't care whether or not it is legal".
This is the hill I am willing to die on - I will stick stickers every day to bring this to people's attention because I am horrified how we are not able to speak about this openly. If the law is ever changed to make misgendering a hate crime I will break it and will not refer to men as women. If by some misfortune I find myself in court and am asked to refer to a man as a women I will go to prison for contempt of court. I simply DO NOT CARE.

From memory I think Tracey isn't in favour of single-sex spaces, though I may be wrong on that.

Tracy - what are you asking about? GC Women being kicked off Twitter or people sticking small stickers in public places?

Thanks ChattyLion. Smile

ChattyLion · 22/09/2019 22:17

lionheart Yes. Those misogynistic enablers at Twitter are absolutely shameful.

However, if you click on the logos of any of the groups listed on the resources page on the SexMatters website, you can still get to their websites (even if they have been kicked off Twitter) so their info and contacts are all still available.

lionheart · 22/09/2019 17:34

ChattyLion--two of those accounts out of the four on the link appear to have been suspended. Says a lot, doesn't it?

This one hasn't expired. Its not by Stickerwoman, but by an admirer who obviously has mad Photoshop skills. Please share the URL and the contents, and any suggestions for future printables supplied on a handy A4 document for your printing convenience.
Smaller versions for sharing online also included.

Most of the links to stickers and leaflets seem to have expired, but there is one to a Dropbox that might be handy for some: www.dropbox.com/sh/czmqwqk8406zqpf/AAC5BrNOvAWGCDbjdPcSBzhIa?dl=0
