@RenfieldsAfoot

Signed.

Also boycotting Always. Not sure why they removed the symbols, my daughters think pads are for older people and say the majority of their friends wear tampons. Though my youngest is on the side of Always 🙄 I'd be interested in seeing their sales figures a year from now.

Oh no what have Always done???

Signed!

Signed. Fuckers.

I might be slightly understanding of them (while still disagreeing) if they erased men at the same time. Of course they wouldn't do that.

Why is misogyny not a hate crime?

Why is misogyny not a hate crime?

Because it's too common, including among men holding power?
(Leaving aside whether 'hate crime' is a useful concept... but if it exists then it should apply to all protected characteristics)

I hope that means everyone is trying to get on there to sign and there is too much traffic Hmm

I saw a mash report sketch refer to women as the clitorati. I think i preferred that Grin

Yes, it is. I've seen her posts on FWR!
Lowhum · 20/06/2020 20:18

Petition has gone

LorenzoVonMatterhorn · 20/06/2020 20:23

Yes it has! But Why Would the petition disappear?

TheChampagneGalop · 20/06/2020 21:14

What is this fuckery? Why has it been deleted?

ErrolTheDragon · 20/06/2020 21:29

It says 'This petition isn't available. Either the URL is incorrect, it violated our Community Guidelines, or the starter removed it.'

The URL wasn't incorrect, seems unlikely that the starter would remove it though I suppose that's possible. Did anyone have a copy of what it said ... I don't remember anything untoward (other than what it was complaining about, of course)

Kahiki · 20/06/2020 21:35

Did they remove the petition!

SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito · 20/06/2020 22:18

It will have been deemed as hateful.

LorenzoVonMatterhorn · 20/06/2020 22:54

More silencing of women. This needs picking up by the press too.

Redshoeblueshoe · 20/06/2020 23:08

So now we can't even sign a bloody petition.
I suppose they will take away our right to vote next SadAngry

BirdyCheepCheep · 20/06/2020 23:27

Can anyone remember what the petition said? Have change.org removed the petition as it doesn't suit their ideas of what is acceptable?

YourVagesty · 21/06/2020 00:20

Anybody connected to any journalists?

This is a fucking outrage. I feel like women are being massively trolled!
