Aw, you bloody lovely sticker ninjas! This whole thing, including this thread and cesira's magnificent posts therein, is the best thing since ManFriday was conceived.

Gorgeous stuff. It's not violent, it's not expensive, it's not hateful, it's not partisan and it displays a marvellous sense of humour and highlights the fact that others don't have one. The epitome of the GC position.

I'd like it to be die-cut though (as in the sticker is cut to the shape) and I'm not sure I have time to sit and cut them all out.

(Am I overthinking this?! [grin)]

I'll have a look at online sticker companies.

Agreed the pink looks better!

Looking forward to seeing what your ex comes up with tsonlyme!

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 11:10

tsonlyme A6 sounds good to me.

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 11:17

This company does die cut stickers, 50 for £46. First one I found - also I chose fairly good quality options, so hoping I can find cheaper.

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 11:20

Same company, choosing cheaper options, 100 for £35.

That's more like it!

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 11:25

Oh, weird - I can't get it to show me the cheap price again. Maybe I did something wrong?!!

The same options now coming out at 50 for £43 or 100 for £66.

tsonlyme · 10/08/2018 11:30

I have plenty of free time at the moment to cut the stickers myself (and work out an easy peel system) as I’m off work long term (cancer) so I’ll stick to making them myself but it’s great if you can find cheapish options for other people to use.

Queenofthedrivensnow · 10/08/2018 11:40

Best news ever. Can anyone link to ordering the stickers or is anyone in Plymouth ordering them that I can get involved with?

CholloDeNombre · 10/08/2018 11:45

I'm totally doing this. Thanks for everyone's work in getting this out there.

You may be the victim of "intelligent pricing" - where if you keep going back to a product page the site assumes you're really interested, and puts the price up. You could try a different browser (but once you get to the right price, stay there till you order!)

CesiraAndEnrico · 10/08/2018 11:58

I am wording this carefully on purpose. Because thread zappy happy fingers are our lot till The Pink Sticky Penis of Truth has penetrated the shields of The Ministry Of Permitted Thought.

Where out in public are you at your most private ?

Take the weight of your feet, in the name of relief.

Look up and forward, as most people do.

Contemplate the phrase, don't shit on me and tell me it's the purest Swiss chocolate..

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 12:03

tsonlyme I'm really sorry to hear that Flowers I hope you have good RL support.

TerfsUp · 10/08/2018 12:04

Checks date

Nope. It's not 1 April.

tsonlyme · 10/08/2018 12:06

Thanks womensvoices I’m well supported, yes. And if anything it’s making me want to make a difference even more. But let’s not make this thread about me!

Juells · 10/08/2018 12:12

HRTFT but I'm charmed by the idea that saying 'Women don't have penises' is vile and anti-trans. Confused

It's scary how far these people are removed from reality! 🤪

TerfsUp · 10/08/2018 12:15

'8 out of 10 transwomen prefer to keep their penis'

I like "8 out of 10 transwomen have penises". To the point and accurate.

This is genius. Pure. Fecking. Unadulterated. Fecking. Genius.

And thanks to the posters giving sticker advice. I'd also like a sticker that says something like 'Being Female is More than just Self-ID' or something like that, but of course it would need to be more succinct.

Just watch out for the CCTV and collaborationist handmaidens.

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 12:23

Wow, this lot are cheap!

standard paper, £17 for 100.
heavy duty stickers, £29 for 100.

womensvoicesmatter · 10/08/2018 12:25

Do you reckon I should contact the printers and ask them if they're happy to print penis stickers? Or just send it through and hope for the best?

RoseTheHatt · 10/08/2018 12:27

Good.

IfNotNowThenWhen1 · 10/08/2018 12:28

I agree with Cesira. Adding extra info just muddies the waters, and like a pp said making it about "trans" will just switch people off.
I mean, for me personally I don't care that 80% of transwomen have penises. What's the alternative? Castration? It's a pretty horrible operation. I understand the issues, but most people will be uncomfortable with thinking about it.

"Women don't have penises" though. Well everybody knows that. And the more the RL meme seeps into the public consciousness the more odd it will seem to hear about intact male bodied people saying they are women.

CesiraAndEnrico · 10/08/2018 12:34

And bear in mind that talking about MAKING stickers is fine. People are allowed to MAKE stickers.

But other sticker+different verb chat may cross over lines where enemy fire will start to create thread casualties.

CholloDeNombre · 10/08/2018 12:35

Done and done.
