Page 31 | The Body Shop has fallen

Just seen this on Twitter. For those who like their Ginger Shampoo, can I suggest MooGoo. Also, Aveeno is a good replacement for their Shea butter. Other thoughts welcome. Feel free to suggest other ideas.

I'd just started shopping with them again now they're no longer associated with L'Oreal. Won't be now. I actually had a big order planned too.

Kit19 · 10/06/2020 19:41

I’ll be honest, I assumed they already fell ages ago. Haven’t brought from them in years

midgebabe · 10/06/2020 19:40

Yeah trans dislikers are probably a tiny part of the body shop customers
Probably also a tiny minority on here also
Not too sure what the point you were trying to make was?

PenOrPencil · 10/06/2020 19:40

Idiots who I will not buy from again. Honestly, though, they should fire their social media intern.

Saucery · 10/06/2020 19:39

Well, how petty and childish of them.

That’s because that is Plans blurb not theirs.

Thankfully, a lot of transgendered people on TV recently. It's just this tiny insignificant corner of the internet that is full of hate. I hope you're never in a position where people can 'hate on you'.

That’s just women then. And why ‘thankfully’? When was the last time you saw a trans man on tv?

I think they may have misread the room. Surely their audience is not young woke women but instead those who are more likely to understand what a female is.

Nobody rise to it, please...

They’re just looking for publicity so that woke girls like my 18 year old DD will share the tweet and find out it exists. Unfortunately my DS 21 and DD 18 won’t support JK and blindly call me transphobic if I raise the debate on the erosion of women’s rights.

@GimmeAy

You do realise that you trans-dislikers are not a major base for the Body Shop or any shop and that you're a tiny teenchy minority thankfully?

Oh, just stop it. You're either wilfully misunderstanding, or just misunderstanding by virtue of not being very bright. Whatever 🤷🏻‍♀️

Do you know how the world "moves on"? It is women, with wombs, growing new people to continue human progress.

That is how the world moves on.

You really need to step out of your bubble.

Lordfrontpaw · 10/06/2020 19:34

Aw crap they are buddies with the ‘bloody crap period’ people too.

GimmeAy · 10/06/2020 19:34

Grow up. The world has moved on.

Wow interesting GimmeAy
Can you link to the research plz?

lionheart · 10/06/2020 19:32

I scrolled back through their timeline and found a tweet from just a short while ago about period poverty.

It was illustrated with an illustration from Plan International, which directly mentions girls and women.

Pointed this out to them and now it seems to have vanished.

Poof!

That was a speedy deletion--unless it's just me who can't see it up there anymore.

Lordfrontpaw · 10/06/2020 19:32

I’d there a link? I was pissed with already them because they had retweeted something about periods and omitted the word woman bit managed to get the word inclusivity into it.

No one I know dislikes trans people.

The busy shop relies on its loyal customer base, largely teenage girls from the 90s. People like me, and all my friends, all of whom are GC to an extent.

please don’t be fooled by twitter. Most polling shows that at least in the U.K., most people are “transphobic” by the ridiculous standards set.

Nothing about trans here. Just a shop trying to shut a woman up and tell her to educate herself.

I didn't know that about Aveeno.

The tweet is in the OP but I cropped it too much.
