Women shouldn't be allowed to create or interfere with imagery of the holy phallus. This is blesphemy.

Only phallus owners have the right to render depictions. Women must simply worship and be grateful.

Londoners are weird... Glad I live far, far away in the shires Grin

He already has retweeted Dr Jo O'Grady's ridiculous hyperbole

Oh dear.

Is he handing out these again ?

Is this a meme I have missed or has this actually happened?

Oh my goodness, that's amazing.

Got a screenshot ?

Twitter thinks my eyes must be protected and won't let me change settings.

The Guardian have now reported on it.

"Sticker protest on Antony Gormley's beach statues accused of 'trans hatred'

Liverpool ReSisters pasted phallus-shaped stickers saying ‘women don’t have penises’ on Crosby sculptures"

CesiraAndEnrico · 20/08/2018 14:43

Oh dear. The The Guardian fell a bit short in terms of totally picking a side. And won't get...

Just managed to view. It's a meme. She's really good with CGI, seen her other work if it's the same person.. Hoping she'll be working on a longer one, a trip around the world Grin

The stickers were condemned by a coalition of women’s groups... yadda yadda. I wonder who these groups all are, where their funding and backing (and voice) comes from, who are their allies (and their allies' allies').

It's all very odd that the Gruniard et al didn't condemn the light show done recently ('Transwomen Ape Women'). Well, actually it isnt. Why no comments under the 'article'?

BarrackerBarmer · 20/08/2018 15:03

The guardian piece links to 'Liverpool groups' who condemned the stickers. I clicked on two of them. They appear to be American groups, one of which already has a defunct website with the domain name for sale.
Rent a mob it seems. About as authentic as the mighty ladypeen.

In other news there is a trans led litter pick and sticker removal on Saturday at Crosby Beach.

What's the weather forecast for Sunday, anyone know?

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 20/08/2018 15:04

Transwomen ape women?

WhereDoWeBeginToCovetClarice · 20/08/2018 15:04

I assume they are referring to groups for 'women with penises' no?

Rufustheyawningreindeer · 20/08/2018 15:05

Thats a funny misspelling

(Unless you did it on purpose Grin)

hackmum · 20/08/2018 15:06

The crappiest bit on the Guardian story was the so-called "coalition of women's groups". Come on - who are these people, and who do they represent? It's probably the same three people in each group.

Apart from the line about undergoing a sex change, the Brendan O'Neill article was excellent. Especially: "When trans-sceptical women are denounced as ‘TERFs’ by hordes of irate identitarians online, they are really being branded disobedient bitches, women who really ought to know their place."

AsAProfessionalFekko · 20/08/2018 15:07

No - one of the projections wasn't well planned so when it was projected into a building it went over an window ledge or something - which messed up the word 'ARE' and made it look like 'APE'. It amuses me anyway.

AsAProfessionalFekko · 20/08/2018 15:08

'An' window ledge? Oh dear...

They never have comments on trans articles as they know from experience the majority of their readers think it's all as batshit as we do.

AsAProfessionalFekko · 20/08/2018 15:11

They didn't have any under the Jamie Oliver Jerk Rice one either.

Oscarino · 20/08/2018 15:18

I think it was Trans Women Are Women loud and clear, front and centre, and then someone had an "oh shit" moment and tried to jam in Trans Men are Men but had the problem with the window sill.

So we got the full male centred story, even if inadvertently
Trans Women Are Women
Trans Men Ape Men

Hi all, I am a massive lurker, I have been following all this for months but don't contribute so much as you wonderful women have it covered!

I've been trying to print out the flyer, the one with the links on it and info about prisons, and the link to the consultation on it. It will print but I'd like it half the size so I can leave them around as flyers rather than posters. I can't seem to edit it, it comes as a jpeg. I'm rubbish at this stuff!

Can anyone help me out, I'd like to get involved in this small way. Thank you!

Nightowlagain · 20/08/2018 16:03

It's ok I think I've sussed it! Local establishments here I come!

AsAProfessionalFekko · 20/08/2018 16:16

I got my apes confused. 'Ape women' would have been funnier though but 'ape men' works too...
