Feminist T-shirts you can usefully wear in Tesco

(Other grocery suppliers are available)

I’ve not generally been a slogan t-shirt wearer, but it turns out post Covid my off-duty style is evolving to be a lot more relaxed than it used to be! So I’ll now happily be in whatever comfywear whilst doing the shopping etc. I was thinking about the daily acts of feminism and planting seeds of ideas thing and thinking that wearing T-shirts with a thought-provoking feminist message on is a useful thing to do whilst shopping; if people see the message and they find it intriguing they may go away and find out more. Nothing offensive (not counting claimed offence at gender critical belief itself).

The feminist tshirts that I have aren’t really suitable - they are either just celebratory slogans (like courage calls to courage, I incite this meeting etc) or you have to be already in the know to get the relevance, like BirdyRose designs (my favourite Magdalen one is too sweary for polite company as well).

Has anyone got any feminist slogan apparel that would fit these criteria? Thought provoking for observers, not sweary, makes the point clearly?

Hope this all makes sense

Btw complete tangent on the dinosaur thing but this was fucking hilarious, (highlighted on Twitter by our very own @RhymesWithOrange ) apparently us stoopid t**fs are using “trans dinosaurs” (ha!) as our secret signal, because the person that requested dinosaur emojis had Thoughts when they did so 😂

BUT...you do need to check the orgins of some t-shirts as no point wearing one if the (mostly) women making them are earning fuck all! Spark company have a standard I think for the conditions of the people making the shirts.

Dinosaurs are another reference for the in-crowd though, unless there is a clear caption to “explain” (that if people google it’d bring them to David Lammy’s accusations for example).

Things like “Lesbian Not Queer” for example, apart from
I’m not personally a lesbian so wouldn’t appropriate that.

I think the woman: adult human female shirt is really effective. Not least because it's probably the most popular feminist message people wear at the moment.

I'm in dire need of T-shirts that would not be deemed a provocation and would be suitable for general wear plus be thought-provoking.

I love the 'this witch doesn't burn' one.
