So what would our slogan be?

[sethstarkaddersmackerel]

We would quite like a slogan to go on the banner for marches, and I thought it would be nice to discuss it more widely than just the feminist crafters.

Suggestions so far:

The hand that rocks the cradle can [also] change the world

Agitate, educate, organise (this was an NUM local branch slogan; we might be able to come up with a variation.)

The way I heard it was "The hand that rocks the cradle can cradle a rock". But perhaps that's a bit violent as a concept.

But it would be nice to bring in motherhood or children somehow.

"We march for our children's world"?

I've got a bone to pick with SGB - thanks to her I made myself sound like some kind of old hand at BDSM in a chat with relative stranger last night. OOPS. It's very hard to unlearn terminology learnt on MN it seems :o

I love 'The Revolution Begins At Home'!

I think BOF's slogan is fab but, some of us aren't mums, and it woudl be nice to not deny that diversity by choosing a slogan that doesn't say stuff about being mums.

We could always have a slogan and a strapline...

that would also make a good badge.
and a poster for dd's room.

Right up until you want her to do something.

yes, and her teachers might not be very pleased if they heard about it.

I like that slogan - is it ok to nick slogans?

And I wouldn't mind my daughters living by it either - yes, it's annoying when they question what you askt hem to do, but I'd far rather they did that than blindly did what I say because I'm the boss...although I do get flamed on MN for having that parenting approach

surely the point of slogans is that they should spread?

Mumsnet Feminists - we are what we think and what we do about what we think.

Maybe this would counter the 'dull Mummies' stereotype.

I like "the revolution begins at home".

"spitting through our beards since 2010" funny.

Something about kitchens of resistance?

Not sure about the kitchens- I try to avoid mine

Chant: "Come and 'ave a go if you think you're pink enough"

Yeah, there is that.

It was supposed to be in the vein of revolution beginning at home, and all that.

Post it anyway

Namechange if you not sure

Mumsnet: just fishin

Leave the twat

Fanjos and Norks rule

Barry- I liked the other one

The more I drink think about it the more tented I am to have 'Resist, Do Not Comply' tattooed on my bum what an ace slogan.

TEMPTED bloody iPhone...

I like 'the revolution begins at home' but I worry that it reinforces women=home?

I love Words and Deeds.

How about 'Mumsnet Feminists: Don't Make Us Come Over There'? :)

I particularly like Words and Deeds because it's the Internet - so it's just words on a page innit but then there are actions which stem from that.

Oh, lord, I'd forgotten "pillowed laphounds from hell".

Good times. Good times.

I like the hand that rocks the cradle, and also The Revolution Begins At Home, but I feel like there's something to be said about the way Mumsnet allows women to come together in (almost) all-female space and talk honestly, because that feels very feminist. Like a new-fangled consciousness raising group.

Ooh! Ooh! "Mumsnet Feminists: Consciousness-Raising 2.0"?

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, But There'll Probably Be An AIBU Thread About It
