Vulva owners?!

Just came across this (no pun intended!) on Insta. Can someone explain to me how this company can use the “by mums for
mums” advertising ploy yet then go on to reduce us to “vulva owners”?

Have you thought about a shared ownership scheme?

Really hard to sell those when you need to size up or down. Cladding problems too.

Women is the subset of vulva owners. That’s where the subset comes in.

Won’t someone think of the lady penises?!

Because some vulva owners who have given birth don't like being called mums - they might prefer dad or something else. Vulva owners, uterus havers, menstruators is the only reliable way to capture people who were born as women but no longer think of themselves as women

How can you give birth, the most fundamental reason for our existence, and think you are not a woman? If a woman thinks that she is a man or has a special identity, why would they give birth? Because a man doesn't give birth.

Women are not a subset of vulva owners. We are a subset of volvo owners. Check your work for typos before you press send, otherwise you just look silly.

And your Haynes manual...

The site stuff thread has been updated to say they have changed the wording now. They still haven't explained the Shrek thing.

They've teamed up with Mumsnet too - I wonder if mumsnet also sees us as just a bunch of vulvas?

How to launch a product and kill it the same day. 🙄
Was this a project task on The Apprentice? 😂

This one surely has to go in classics. This is vintage MN. Terftastic and funny as fuck. @MNHQ make it so.

That‘s something I really don’t understand either.
So they’re not really struggling with the biological reality of being a woman, but just want to name everything differently?

„subset of Volvo owners“ 👌😂

Vulva owners? Has this company just called us all c^nts?

They just want to control other people’s thoughts that’s all.

You'll need to report the thread to ask, doing @MNHQ doesn't contact them.
I'm not sure this is one they'll particularly want to live in our collective memories though!

I mean, if it was a product by a new venture, Terftastic Toys, then take my money 😆

GrabbyGabby · 03/02/2023 08:44

I think i need to copyright that name. Terftastic Toys, made by women for women (aka by cunts for all that have them).
