Following the decision of Priimesight Direct @Direct_PS on Twitter to remove the paid for billboard stating that women are adult human females (see other thread on same), I can only conclude we must be our own billboards. There are many of us silenced, and others threatened, and I understand that many of us cannot speak freely due to jobs and other barriers. For everyone who can though, please let us, when we feel safe enough, supported enough, and able enough to be our own billboards. I am committing to wearing a feminist t shirt every day that I safely can. Let them try to rip that down #beyourownbillboard. I’m so cross about this, I’m nearly spitting 🐓

I was thinking the same thing.

redshoeblueshoe · 24/09/2018 19:33

Also I don't have a job, so no one can sack me !

I’ve ordered two Human Female t shirts, and two referencing the Handmaid’s tale. Frankly I hate logo t shirts. They are beyond not my bag, and this is going to wreck havoc on my very lovely minimalist style, but goddammit I’ve been pushed to it.

The side of my house faces onto a bus route. I’m very, very tempted to crack out some paint.

Where are the fucking t shirts on sale? I can't find them. So fucking angry.

I just saw this on twitter and it did occur to me that dr hardtop and his fellow travellers may be about to land themselves in a bit of trouble. It’s clear from prime sights response that disclosures about the placers of the adverts were made to them by the complainants and it seems those disclosures caused concern. It’s got to be a possibility those disclosures were or may have been defamatory and if untrue, could give rise to legal action. One has to question the intellectual grip of a someone who happily trumpets something that could expose him to substantial damages claims. I don’t think his prof neg cover will pay out for that...

Sorry but fuck.

I want to buy a t shirt too. In every colour.

IAmSproutycus · 24/09/2018 19:53

I started wearing womens symbol jewelry.

IAmSproutycus · 24/09/2018 19:59

Me too. I’m wearing the WPUK Venus symbol pin on my lapel, and I’ve been surfing Etsy for feminist jewellery.

I found some very fetching vulva dangly earrings, but felt I couldn’t quite carry them off at work 🙄

I would break my ban on plastics and vinyl wrap my car if I had one

I may be wrong... but is it possible they predicted this would happen (not difficult to do) and did it because it shows how completely farcical things are? This will get a lot more press coverage now, of basic biological fact being called hate.

IAmSproutycus · 24/09/2018 20:05

Yes, I rather thought so. It’s well played, but it still boils my piss that it played out as predicted.

I have ordered :-)

MarklesMerkin · 24/09/2018 20:15

Great idea. I'm in - if anyone could add any more links to jewellery/TShirts/Bags etc I'd really appreciate it, good excuse to go shopping. Will shake up all the woke folk at Uni! Grin

LiverpoolReSisters · 24/09/2018 20:22

There was a rather marvelous Harry Potter themed feminist t-shirt, worn by sweary godmother at the swimming baths? "I solemnly swear" something something. Anyone?

Badstyley · 24/09/2018 20:36

I’ve ordered me some of those Standing For Women T-shirts.

LittlePearl · 24/09/2018 20:42
