The reliably foolish Good Law Project have commissioned a new outdoor campaign, coming to a street near you.

Of course I support trans – I’m not a monster - Monster

Trans people should be able to live their lives in peace.

The Ayatollahs in Iran support trans too.

This woman doesn't. Closed cubicles stink for a start.

And you often have to wade through badly aimed piss on the floor. Very hard if you are wearing trousers so have to lower them enough to do what you want to do without the legs soaking up someone else’s urine.

Every woman I've ever known prefers a closed cubicle. Women dont, on the whole, like being overheard whilst on the loo and especially not if ill.

I, for one, feel completely uncomfortable in those claustrophobic inducing closed cubicles.

Not to mention the many times in my life over the years when I’ve been grateful for the friendly woman in the next toilet passing loo roll under the partition when I’ve exclaimed out loud ‘argh, no loo roll’. Does that not happen anymore?

On a (Nitter?) thread I’ve just been reading posts repeatedly say it’s 76m.

86m distresses me. At least if it’s 96m each of the 12 sections can be 8m long. 86/12 is 7 1/6, which would be difficult to measure precisely. Will this quilt be a bit approximate? If the image at the top of this page is anything to go by I’m not hopeful.

Perhaps a rough approximation of mostly-female-practised crafts is appropriate.

Yes, it's messing with my head too. Especially the spelling of metres as meters; I keep thinking of irony meters.
Maybe they mean perimeter instead of length. So each section could be 2m width x 2m length/height, for example. That's 8m perimeter per section for 12 sections. Though that still doesn't explain the shrinking.
@Hedgehogsrightsarehumanrights I have to be honest, I assumed it is going to be carried horizontally, like a giant trampoline.
So many questions.

Its a balance/tradeoff between privacy and safety.

Everyone prefers privacy for usual circumstances, but unfortunately people do pass out/collapse in public loos, and if you do that in a sealed, locked room chances to help may be missed.

Just got back from Durham gala the average banner is about 2.5 meters width and height which is pretty big and bloody heavy to hold up.

If the quilt (which is going to be made in to a banner) is 86 meters made in to 12 panels that is still just over 7 meters.

i cannot see how anyone could carry it on poles.

i would imagine that even the most burliest of men (without any hormonal intake) would struggle.

I cannot wait to see all those weedy limp specimens dragging the banners around. The mind boggles.

This is where they will regret pissing off all those big butch lesbians…..

I am presuming you are ambulant and are a woman, (but if not then just substitute the word woman for man):

Imagine you were at your most vulnerable in a toilet cubicle - perhaps going there feeling ill, then it turning into a medical emergency. Another woman entering the single sex washroom would be able to see or hear you were in trouble in your cubicle.

That safeguarding feature gets taken away when toilets are in a mixed sex environment. The toilet design has to be resistant to sound and floor-to-ceiling in height.

I think the right to a safe toilet design for ambulant people having an emergency, and for those with disabilities and conditions such as diabetes, allergies, epilepsy, heart conditions, stroke, should come before toilets becoming completely private. This means certain single sex designs are inclusive of disabilities as a very reasonable adjustment.

These conditions don’t ‘care’ what you identify as. I want safe toilets and this means a certain design that can only be used in a single sex environment. I want toilets to be clean and not smell and that is supported by certain single sex designs too.

If you feel unable to use the women’s toilet, the accessible is the next best design. It has an alarm pull cord and opens up directly on to a main thoroughfare, both safety features. This design relies on the occupant having the ability and desire to get help for themselves by pulling the cord. Now as an ambulant person you can help by making sure the cord has been left untied and reaches the floor. You can make sure the toilet is left in the best state for the next person who may not have the same capabilities to do this as you.

Options if you want men and women to be able to use all toilets:

Change all toilet provision to be the correct regulated design for a mixed sex environment. This isn’t economically and practically viable, or justifiable for health and safety. It discriminates against women, elderly, children, medically vulnerable including some disabilities and those with certain religious beliefs. This seems to be the preferred option of the Good Law Project - they called this the ‘sophisticated’ solution for the consultation for Keeping Children Safe in Education.

The other option is to change the building regulations and standards and legislation so men and women can be in designs made for a single sex environment. The Sexual Offences Act would need to be looked at because there’s certain sections involving toilets, because they are vulnerable places.

Which option do you want to go for?

An online safety session…for a duvet? What dangers are they enticipating? Trip hazards, I suppose. Allergy to fabric? Maybe a strain injury for those not used to anything more strenuous than keyboard warrioring 🤔

I struggle to manoeuvre a duvet to get the cover on it, it’s like fighting with a sail in a high wind. I wouldn’t want to be dragging 86 metres of it round London.

You would be OK after your “online training safety session”. Apparently it can be clipped to your wheelchair if necessary.

FarriersGirl · 15/07/2026 07:45

Just had a thought, what happens to the quilt if it is wet day? I know we haven't had many but if it does rain?

Luckily they've divided it in to panels with handles that can also be attached to your wheelchair apparently

"All 96 metres of the quilt have been divided into 12 panels, complete with handles – will you come and carry it with us?"

But I'm intrigued, where did 10 metres of quilt disappear to?

Monster huh. It’s hardly original. John Knox started it nearly 500 years ago. Coincidentally that didn’t work out well for him either.

They should have called this campaign “The Latest Blast of the Dog Whistle Against This Monstrous Regiment of Women”.

If they are carrying and then making a banner out of it, it can't be an actual quilt at all? They are probably going to parade a pieced top layer through the city centre, and will be very surprised at the size and shape of the "banner" that is left over at the end.

I suspect it will be an Emotional Support Quilt? Or perhaps it will be like those play blankets they give babies that have got a mirror sewn into one corner, a bit of scrunchy rustly fabric in another, and a big soft button you press to make it go beep.

86metres is an oddly specific length that I have enjoyed overthinking!

GLP must be quite skint after wasting so much money on failed law suits and monstrous ad campaigns, so I am wondering if they bought a bargain basement 100yard /91m roll of prequilted wadding, and found that 86metres was what was left after they cut off the shop-soiled ends 😂😂😂

And how are they overwriting anyone else’s rights? Please explain as a CIS woman who doesn’t have a chip on her shoulder

Well firstly, the poster said overriding not overwriting, which is hugely different.
And secondly, there is no such thing as a CIS woman.
There are just women - who are women. And then there are men.
There are men who want to be women and want to call themselves women, and therefore relegate you to a subgroup of women who are called CIS women.

It's not a chip you have on your shoulder. You may not have a chip on your shoulder, but you do have transwomen on your shoulder telling you that you are a CIS woman. Why allow your sex to be undermined? Why allow your sex to become a sub group of men? Why allow them to pretend they suffer the same life experiences?

I've had.
Extremely painful periods to the point I've been hospitalised for investigation.
Re: previous, vomiting and fainting from loss of blood. Anaemic.
Two ops to remove ovarian cysts.
One miscarriage and three caesarian sections.
Various bouts of BV (look it up!)
On entering the menopausal phase, brain fog, drying skin, vaginal discomfort,
and endless mammograms and vaginal swabs.

I mean, come on Judy. Which man can empathise with all that? (NONE)
I think maybe I've been 'unfortunate', but really, come on and think about it!
Is it surprising that some (most) women are slightly pissed off with Idia
W
**by and the like trying to pretend they've always been women?

I mean, for feck's sake. Don't let them demote you to CIS. You are more than that. You are a woman and they are not women and never will be. Let us get this silly pandering title of CIS women out of the repertoire. It means nothing outside of the transwomen's vocabulary. It means nothing, to anybody, in real life.

CIS only exists in a world where there are men who insist they are women.
Which they are not and never will be.

Yes. There's no such thing as a cis woman. I've had various events in my life, unique to females, but not unusual for women:

A miscarriage, at 18, where I was left alone in a hospital bed with a kidney dish into which I "passed" the "products of conception" (a tiny embryo and some fleshy remnants) whereupon I was trundled off to theatre and subjected to a D&C which is a dilatation and curettage, after which I was returned to the Ward where they asked me whether or not I had actually wanted a baby because surely I was far too young ...

Afterwards I had some sort of vaginal infection and had to have a D&C and cauterisation, where the inside of my vagina was burned surgically and then packed with gauze, which having dried and adhered to the cauterised wounds, then had to be manually removed.

And a little while after that, I had a ruptured ectopic pregnancy during which I nearly died.

I went on to conceive and give birth to two healthy babies.

A few years after that I had an ovarian cyst which had to be surgically removed, and another miscarriage.

Later, I endured the usual kind of thing around peri-menopause, involving very heavy periods at erratic intervals, flooding and clots, pain, terrible sleep, night sweats, brain fog, loss of sex drive, that went on for a few years.
During the peri menopause period, I became invisible and inaudible and irrelevant, if I wasn't before that. Middle-aged women simply don't exist. However, they are slightly less invisible than old women, as far as I can tell.

All of these things are not unusual for many women, for instance, one in four women will have a miscarriage. Not everybody suffers heavy painful periods, but those who do are ignored, sidelined, allowed to become anaemic, not offered medication or operations that will improve their quality of life, simply because they are women, and shouldn't be making a fuss. Endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, uterine prolapse, bladder and bowel prolapse, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, I've known numerous women with these conditions, some of whom have been persistently ignored and their lives made a misery as a consequence.

Women's health matters. Specialist services for women are important. Women's privacy and dignity matters.

There is no such thing as a cis woman. Women do not need additional labels. We are not a sub-set of women or a "type" of woman. We are women, not cis or mis or his or dis or giss or any other prefix. We have our sex in common with all other women, and the way that our bodies work is a function of our female sex. We do not need or want additional labels, made up genders, rules made by men, stereotyping or pigeonholing of any kind.
