Information on women's rights have been left in the toilets at Stirling Uni. A report has been made to police about hate crimes.

This was my Uni, I almost wish to be a student again so I could help with the distribution. If any Stirling Uni students are reading, dm me. I'd love to help.

Good to see! Well done, Stirling Uni witches.

I'm sure the police will be delighted to be called out about this.

Brava Thanks I think women need to get similar leaflets into every workplace and public space in the land.

That is a great leaflet

At last, I thought it would never reach us here!

Someone I’m in a WhatsApp group with posted about leaflets somewhere she works. She sent a photo of the leaflet showing where it was… but cropped off the text, so we conveniently couldn’t see what it said.
I could tell it was a women won’t wheesht one.

Et tu Wee Nippy.

See what you have done?

For Women Scotland have reported that a student 'journalist' emailed them to demand that they confirm or deny that they were behind the production of these leaflets. Apparently the email raised quite a snigger among the journalistically inclined at FWS.

Oh bloody hell

This is a uni I have work connections with

Aargh

Factual statements and links to websites. Oh no! The horror!

I've seen this posted on Twitter as the actual 'too offensive to be quoted' leaflet.

Well that’s convenient isn’t it? So no one can actually read what was written then.

Strange that people cannot be left to assess for themselves what is now considered a ‘hate crime’.

And lo, people may agree with it…

The editorial decision has been made, after consultation with the Union, to omit direct quotes so as to not further any harm these materials have caused to the student community.

Well that’s convenient isn’t it? So no one can actually read what was written then.

Brig has viewed the materials which contain references to women’s rights, the threat the writer considers transgender people to pose, and the Gender Recognition Act (GRA).

It is essential that you take from us that these are bad people without seeing their bad words. We have identified the evil so your eternal soul is not put at risk. You can thank us later.
