@ItsAllGoingToBeFine

I have seen it suggested on twitter that perhaps stickers with just the single word "female" would be fun to experiment with...
I think I’m the current climate even ‘cervix haver’ would get you a night in the cells.

Like many people who don't live rurally, I live near a primary school. Some of the children are in the habit of decorating bus shelters, street signs and lamp-posts on the way home with the stickers they've earned (or otherwise obtained!) at school. I expect this happens a lot.

I'm going to involve the police for Friday' sticker on the bus shelter saying "you're a star", as I do not identify as a star. Angry

The blanket is lovely- the sticker isn't. Not because of what it says but defacing the statue is not OK.

Oh I don’t know. Defacing and pulling down statues doesn’t incite much punishment nowadays.

Has this tweet from Mark Jenkinson MP been mentioned on this thread?

That's excellent! And what a lovely teeny blanket too.

Bloody hell. They make it too easy for us sometimes.

FWS: Women won’t wheesht!

Kirkcaldy Police: Yes you will, in the name of progress!

The general public: wait, what? Confused

They need to get some imagery for them there stickers.

Yuo. Women saying we will continue to speak is a hate crime. Women speaking is against the rules!

No-one is even waiting to find out what we want to speak about!

This is starting to feel like a massive colander leaking while the coppers stick they’re fingers in the holes. The water’s going to keep on coming Guv’nor.

[quote PurgatoryOfPotholes]A slogan that means women won't be quiet is controversial?!

How are they not embarrassed at their misogyny? If you can't bear stickers saying women won't wheesht now, you certainly wouldn't have tolerated women won't wheesht posters back when our foremothers were campaigning for the damn vote!

Not just controversial, literally a HATE crime😢

Might need a trigger warning? Is particularly unpleasant 🙄

What did it say?

Sexnotgender · 23/05/2021 11:07

And an MP wants to help as well.

In his defence Neale is not a woke beardy MP. I suspect he’s just trying to find out what the sticker said.

There have been some very funny memes about this!

It seems that Kirkcaldy police tweet has been deleted now, how embarrassing!

Birthing person (non-birthing parents and indeed non-parents equally valid) of non-specific deity (polytheism and atheism equally valid) surely? Wink

In my town, political stickers are very common. I've seen loads about Brexit, the Gaza conflict, the environment, Black Lives Matter, and pro self ID. I've also seen a few that are gender critical. Why are some political stickers acceptable and others are not? It's absurd to think that stating 'a woman doesn't have a willy' is hate speech!
