Will that now be a subtle signal to my fellow GC sisters? I do hope so, I can't wait to see lots of dinosaurs being sported by women out and about - anyone complaining about a woman with a dinosaur is simply going to look batshit crazy Grin. (Although just to be clear I do talk about this a lot in rl but not so much at work but generally think that the more women who don't yet speak out about this can see how many others are GC the better and I suspect that the "GC Dinosaur" may just be our Bat Signal")

I find this thread very sad and a bit White Lives Matter Too. I have an LGBT teen and it’s sad they still have to face this sort of ‘discreet’ hate. I hope you all have a moment that opens your hearts.

I love dinosaurs and have since I was a kid. My DC also love dinosaurs.

Really don't want dinosaurs to be cancelled! 🦖🦕

I have now purchased the bracelet and the pin.

The bracelet will be worn daily, as will the pin. Yay.

I got a pair of sparkly pink T-Reginas as well, y’know for when I’m in girl mode.

Sproutandcrumpet: I'll be very disappointed if dinosaurs become a symbol of anyone's personal views. I like dinosaurs but don't share your views and would hate for anyone to assume I do just because I have a dinosaur bag.

Midgedude: Does it hurt when people take things off you and change the meaning of things ?

Midge wins the internet.

@Cwenthryth

These arrived today Grin
Brilliant! Link, please! Grin

Rex/regina is a bit different than just gender though, in that they're a sexed pair. Sort of.

Does that make a male vagina a vax 🤔?

A Conversational Shirt?!?

Is that one designed to have a conversation in?

Or a conversation about?

The word conversation is starting to look weird now

This one isn't subtle...

Thinking of getting this mug - seems appropriate:

Now I am very pleased with my username.

Sainsburys have dinosaur shirts. They are called "

Christmas Blue Dinosaur Conversational Shirt" ( but they're not particularly Christmassy, but very dinosaury) tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/p/Christmas-Blue-Dinosaur-Conversational-Shirt/139743191-Navy

Meant to quote your post above re: Friday 13th dogwhistle.

@Thefartingsofaofdenmarkstreet I just wanted to acknowledge what a truly excellent post this was.

ImGonnaHaveToGoWithWrath · 11/10/2021 09:09

Grin brilliant!

Thefartingsofaofdenmarkstreet · 10/10/2021 23:01

@NoNotMeNoSiree

Then people on here deny dogwhistles exist 🙄 If you wanted an example of what one is, this thread is a perfect one. Buying something with dinosaurs on in the hope of '' signalling'' to others about your views, Then if it turns out they don't hold them it'd be like' 'don't be silly, what are you on about, I just like dinosaurs!' '
Do you mean like when Magdalen Berns died and Rachel McKinnon posted a gif of someone dancing on a grave on Twitter, much to the amusement of many TRAs, and then when people called Rachel out at doing something so disgusting, Rachel said 'don't be silly, it's for Friday 13th!'

Like that?

Binglebong · 10/10/2021 22:56

Yes! Rather regret not having got them actually.

I want that stegosaurus hat.
