In case anyone hasn’t seen it and can get along.

Info is on eventbrite (‘make misogyny history’)

Fab. I love that the dinosaurs are colour coded. Shame it won't make the news, D's would love to see the dinosaurs on parade.

Where can we see photos - is there a twitter account following it?

Definitely go without signage. I'm happy for anyone to print mine out so I am there in spirit too!

Anotheruser02 · 08/10/2021 10:14

Come without signage. Organiser is bringing lanyards for protesters and leaflets for people to hand out. My resisters group has twice as much signage as people! People share, it’s about many people showing strength of feeling together. If You have a school run this afternoon just come to the lancet.

DysonSphere · 08/10/2021 10:08

I want to go and can go (although it will be difficult due to disibility) but I don't have any signs or clothing with appropriate lingo and would just be bringing my bog standard self.

Boiledeggandtoast · 08/10/2021 10:04

Many thanks for posting the details. By a happy coincidence I have an unexpected day off work!

AmberRoseGold · 08/10/2021 09:49

What a brilliant idea and I love the signs. My husband - less on board than me with GC ideas- was sniggering about the utter intellectual inconsistency of referring to women by bodily parts and functions and IN THE VERY SAME ISSUE referring to “men”. No double standards here then. It’s not even just ideologically flawed, it’s intellectually sloppy too. Default made writ large.
I used to attend Lancet conferences and it has always been obvious Richard Horton fancies himself something rotten. Super Woke Wally.

So tempted to hop on a train and come up, but realistically thinking baby wouldn't appreciate the long day.

Think it's spectacularly ironic that my 'woman's work' prevents me from protesting women's rights.

One of the accusations of the other side is it's only older women in these protests and younger women aren't represented. But we can't risk our jobs or family safety. Very grateful for those that are there today holding the line.

GrandmaMazur · 08/10/2021 09:44

I wish I could be there. Another one who’ll be roaring from afar!

SirSamuelVimes · 08/10/2021 09:39

I'm waaay up north so can't come along and roar Sad. Love the signs!

WomaninBoots · 08/10/2021 09:37

That's a fabulous sign! I am a bit far from London so can't come. Roar for me please!

@Anotheruser02 great sign. Good luck today. :)

FrancescaContini · 07/10/2021 21:31

Would love to go but will be working, many many miles away….shame it’s not over a weekend…

Good luck to all those “rights-hoarders” who will be attending!

Double sided, a message for the lancet and a nice pic for Lammy.

I can't go but I really wish I could, it looks brilliant and it is always such a pleasure to be in the company of women...sorry, sorry dinosaurs.

Have a brilliant time!

I hope some journalists are awake. And sober.
