@ValancyRedfern

There is nothing transphobic about the stickers. Unless you think women having rights is a problem for trans people?
Imagine how a teenage trans girl, already being bullied at home and school feels when she sees stickers on the street that imply she's a predatory sex offender. And think how that plays into the hands of the bullies.

The truth is they ARE about taking women's rights away.

I quite like the thought of girls seeing "women's rights are not a hate crime" on poles all the way to school, especially considering the epidemic of sexual violence and harassment in schools.
It's a small thing, a sticker, but they'll know that there are other women out there who think they deserve basic human rights and are willing to put it out there in public.

And as an aside, if you think that women's rights is a hate crime, then the problem really isn't with women.

Just wonderful, not a mean sticker in sight , just calm and factual and still they can't see it.

@PotholeParadies

Can anyone confirm whether Bobby still has his crochet coat?
Ian Rankin mentions it being on yesterday afternoon I think in his tweet who knows today.

@Shizuku

I'm just thinking of trans kids on their way to school having to look at transphobic stickers plastered around the town, before another day of bullying at school and followed by another night of being misgendered at home.

“I'm just thinking of trans kids on their way to school having to look at transphobic stickers plastered around the town, before another day of bullying at school and followed by another night of being misgendered at home.“

In what way is “women’s rights are not a hate crime” transphobic? Hmm

I dont remember that, but it sounds lovely.

PotholeParadies · 14/03/2021 22:57

Does anyone else remember when Kiera Bell said Posie Parker's poster helped her?

@334bu

Well done Fringe but what about these.
Interesting. I suppose one person's justified stickering is another person's mindless defacing of public property with witless slogans.

Having seen those I'm inclined to go with JJ's views - if you're going to do this it should be something which can be easily removed without causing any damage. And you should accept that anyone seeing it has the right to remove it.

A picture of Bobby in his wee coatie was tweeted out by Ian Rankin yesterday - thereby spreading #hatefulhaberdashery far and wide

Spotted today in Edinburgh - not stickers, but a slate attached to a railing, easily removable, with womenwontwheesht hashtag. Thank you to whoever did this, coming across it made my day!

PurpleHoodie · 14/03/2021 18:56

Oh yes.

Actually all real dogs should have similar woolly blankets. Grin

He's so cute! ❤

I always used to get upset about animal statues being cold in winter when I was little, and it turns out that I'm still that soft.

PurpleHoodie · 10/03/2021 14:09

Oh Pothole.

You made me look at the doggy picture again
