I haven't visited but it's local to me. It sounds like a good thing, they need financial support if anyone is willing.

I came to say... nope. They have odd ideas and I'm amazed they lasted this long. They can always ask their friends at Starbucks and Tesco etc to put their hands in their pockets cant they?

I went in a few months ago, read their notice board informing me that they celebrate the vagina in all its forms, natural and surgically created, and the experiences of all people who have vaginas, and walked right out again. They are full-on TWAW Twats.

take a look at their website shop - tells you all you need you know
this is not a female centered organisation

How disappointing. I thought MN would know more about it than I do. I won't be donating or visiting

So...what are you saying? The Vagina Museum is run by twats?

Grin

Not as much as you might hope.

ScrimpshawTheSecond · 24/04/2020 13:10

Yeah, nah. It was a great idea, but I'm not interested in TWAW projects.

So no support from me, I'm afraid. I reserve mine for organisations that can cope with reality. A real shame, though.

They dropped their work with Jess de Wahls after she dared express GC views: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/3735283-Embroidery-Instagrammer-targeted-by-TRAs-and-the-woke-now

Among the museums goals are to “erase the stigma around the body and gynaecological anatomy”, “challenge heteronormative and cisnormative behaviour”, and “act as a forum for feminism, women’s rights, the LGBT+ community and the intersex community”

Hmmm.

toriap2 · 24/04/2020 12:29

They believe feminism should include males and use the c word so it’s a hard pass from me.

HavartiToSeeYou · 24/04/2020 12:22

I’ve been. There is no mention of penises or male bodied people.

ducksback · 24/04/2020 12:20

Penis people?

toriap2 · 24/04/2020 12:20

But but surely all the er.... people who they have shown that they respect and appreciate more than women will be fully supporting them and funding them.

Michelleoftheresistance · 24/04/2020 12:12

And that article....... the main taboo they want to break down about women's bodies, is the belief that women are female.

Michelleoftheresistance · 24/04/2020 12:10

They opened their doors very clear that the vagina museum first and foremost was all about males, and male ownership of female bodies and female language. No, no interest in financially supporting them thanks. Not a fan of male supremacism.

ducksback · 24/04/2020 12:10

Yup they think that TWAW.

RoLaren · 24/04/2020 12:05

I'm fairly sure I read their ethos is TWAW. Expect penises. Female ones, obviously.

I don't know where they stand on TWAW but I would think non-believers
