Feminism: Sex and gender discussions

So what would our slogan be?

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.)

oh but HerBex you know the anti non-feminists will get terribly upset about that one, if we are speaking in their name without even consulting them? We would have to start a thread and debate pointlessly in circles for three and a half days every time we wanted to chant it!

(otherwise it's brilliant.)

Raising the Revolution still winning by a mile!

Patriarchy: YABVU is coming in second at the moment :D

We are femmos...?

Grumpla - are people, like me, voting for Patriarchy YABVU because it's so bloody funny, rather than becuase it's actually a valid one to have on the banner? Love the idea of having it on placards Grin

sethstarkaddersmackerel · 13/03/2011 21:24

really? Shock
I think 'Patriarchy YABVU' is very very funny but not right for a banner, no-one would understand it except MNers, which kind of defeats the object.

I agree, Seth - but I couldn't resist voting for it for my second choice, though! I reckon everyone else has done the same!

Own up!!! Grin

We can always veto the Patriarchy YABVU as not helpful to non-MNers if it happens to come first, and go with the most sensible one with the most votes.

I am aware I am sounding slightly like a dictator, or Mistress Ploppy's famous last meals - "you can choose whatever you want...so long as it's saugages...sausages is all I got, you see" Grin

What name did they want instead? Dumbo? (it's ladybiscuit here - I've changed my name because there are far too many stupid awful people on these boards with LadyX type names).

Thanks :) I much prefer Dave Watts. I think I might call my next cat that :o

Grumpla · 13/03/2011 22:19

We've had 30 votes so far, almost half for Raising The Revolution.

Grumpla · 13/03/2011 22:20

LOL at Dave Watts

What an enterprising man.

He should be rewarded by having an elephant named after him

I think We Heart Dave Watts would be a good feminist slogan. Might just pop over to the survey for a quick vote...

You can vote more than once, right?
