Excuse the daily mail link but I am absolutely raging at this

ps MNHQ - tucking away discussion into its own wee sub forum doesn’t make you any better

The transwoman who masturbated (through clothing) in front of me in the toilets when I was 17 was in Pizza Hut. I am guessing any toilet would have done, tbh.

How awful that happened to you.

ArabellaScott · 17/11/2022 22:27

Yes, although tbh at the time I was very young and naive and didn't really know what was going on. Only that a weird person was in a confined space with me making odd noises, and that I needed to get out as fast and as quietly as I could.

I just Googled "suffragette scarf" and clicked "shopping", and this way rather than the news articles you'll get a few options for a wool one on sale from a few scottish shops, all the same scarf, all in sale for £16.99. Is a lighter colour than the one linked up thread. But i still think this thread is valuable because it spreads a great idea.

I can't find that one, it keeps showing me something in a similar price range that blue, purple and white. (Very pretty, but not what I'm looking for!)

I've just got a scarf - arrived really quickly too ! Ollie and Fred is the name of the company. Delighted with it.

The Ministry of Tartan Suffragette scarf is now available for pre-order, with delivery in January.

@mumsnet Shouldn't this be. In the feminist board?

There isn't a 'feminist board', is there? I think these days there's 'Feminism: Chat' and 'Feminism: Sex and Gender Discussions'.

Just saying.

Why? The suffragettes helped all women to get the vote.

If you can't win at no debate then is the option to try and hide the debate instead?

We see you.

ErrolTheDragon · 18/11/2022 23:37

I suppose Style and beauty might have been more apt than AIBUGrin. (At least no-one there makes snide remarks about google if someone asks for help finding an item of clothing's.)

Why? This affects all women and girls. Why shouldn’t it be on on of the main boards?

Hmmm, I'm learning to knit. Maybe a tri-colour scarf would be a good project? 🤔

This thread reminded me of a book I read years ago where the woman's grandmother was a suffragette and came back to haunt her.

The woman was an artist (can't remember if it was fashion or painting) and incorporated the suffragette colours into her art.

It was free with a magazine, does anyone remember it?

Purple and white flowers go well together and you get the green for free.

Petition signed! Thanks for the link.
It is for this:

Update the Equality Act to make clear the characteristic “sex” is biological sex.

The Government must exercise its power under s.23 of the Gender Recognition Act to modify the operation of the Equality Act 2010 by specifying the terms sex, male, female, man & woman, in the operation of that law, mean biological sex and not "sex as modified by a Gender Recognition Certificate"

Hello, I am wondering if anybody knows where I can buy a good quality suffragette scarf? Everything seems sold out - amazons offerings are not accurate
