I think if Posie and those like her intend to carry on, which I really hope they can, then they need to expect to be stitched up in interviews, goaded, baited etc. They need to know that’s what they’re going in to and be prepared for it rather than ambushed by it.

IStandWithPosie · 29/09/2018 17:19

Yes Eamon thinks it’s fine as long as the man feels like a woman.

IStandWithPosie · 29/09/2018 17:22

I was hoping Posie would ask Eamon to imagine that Ruth was arrested and facing an intimate search by a man posing as a woman. Or that Ruth was raped and went for a rape examination to have it performed by a man posing as a woman in a rape crisis centre.

I know people have mentioned media training for Posie, I personally think she’s doing a fabulous job as she is. What might be helpful however is doing what many politicians and frequent debaters do and that is a lot of practice where your opponent is coming at you with soundbites and zinging one-liners. I am thinking of the kind of set up where maybe a GC supporter who has a media background grilling Posie or coming at her verbally with various questioning techniques that tend to throw neophytes (not that she is that!). I am incredibly impressed with how Posie has kept her cool and NOT been thrown off so far and she did fantastically well this week considering as far as know these being her first TV interviews. Practice, practice, practice is I think the answer.

I love how this is a grassroots movement of women, many of whom have been activists of various kinds for many years and also the fact that it is drawing in huge numbers who, like myself, have never been active before. I am so fired up and determined. I am gearing myself up to starting some kind of activism in real life, I think a kind of consciousness raising group focused on GC thinking and she threat to women’s rights.

Feel free to criticise, designing isn't my strong point.

And obviously colours can be changed easily.

IStandWithPosie · 29/09/2018 17:44

Oh neddle, I LOVE the crossword one!

ijustwannadance · 29/09/2018 17:53

I want a tshirt with ticky boxes on.

Disrespectful [tick]
Angry [tick]
Northern [tick]
Woman [tick]

neddle · 29/09/2018 18:18

Ooh, love the tick boxes!

Ive stuck the first three on an old etsy shop i had.
search for dream crafter uk.
(don't want to get in trouble with mnhq for advertising)

These are pretty much what they cost me to make, but I'm not sure about postage yet.
Any profit that I might make, I'll donate to the cause.

ToeToToe · 29/09/2018 19:30

neddle I love them.

I would buy the crossword one and the disrespectful woman one.

MnerXX · 29/09/2018 19:33

Love the tickboxes!

DoctorTwo · 29/09/2018 20:23

I love Posie Parker. She's awesome.

DontCisgenderMe · 29/09/2018 22:58

Definitely want a ‘Disrespectful Woman’ one!

I’d also love one saying ‘The right side of HERstory’, as seen with the banners etc on the steps outside Leeds Civic Hall.

LangCleg · 29/09/2018 23:00

neddle - the crossword one is awesome!

LangCleg · 29/09/2018 23:03

I've finally watched it (holding my breath) and I couldn't find a clip where he said this. Is this a paraphrase?

I said that, not Eamonn, sorry. I was meaning this was what he effectively said with his response to Posie. Someone else said I should tweet that but I'm not on Twitter, so said others could if they wanted.

neddle · 30/09/2018 17:42

Just checking in to share some photos.
Sending these out tomorrow.

They look great neddle!

MnerXX · 30/09/2018 18:16

Wow

TallulahWaitingInTheRain · 30/09/2018 18:19

Oh those look very good

FloralBunting · 30/09/2018 18:22

I may have made a purchase today. Sharing this information as a general thought Wink

CisMyArse · 30/09/2018 18:27

Thanks Lang, it's indeed what's Involved though. Eamon Holmes The Man has spoken and we should listen. Going to tweet this pm. He clearly thinks an intimate search is just a little pat down - and even that should be done by a natal woman - we have fought to have our rights recognised and the shouldn't be ignored to appease men, no matter how they want to identify.

Wonder how he'll feel when Ruth bleeps at airport security and needs a pat down or when Ruth's smear test and/internal exam for gyne investigations are performed by a man who feels like a woman or by another bloke who amazingly and bravely identifies as a woman once a week.

Eamon if you're reading, surely to God you understand how utterly stupid you're being. Women AREN'T fine with this. Ruth, grow a pair why dontcha and open your eyes to what's really happening.

DubaiismyBlackpool · 30/09/2018 18:29

@neddle, I'm hoping some of those are part of my order! Wink

I won't be in the UK til November, I'm already planning my 'subversive' shopping trips.

CisMyArse · 30/09/2018 18:34

neddle are these tote bogs?! They're wonderful!

CisMyArse · 30/09/2018 18:39

I love 'Disrespectful Woman'.

neddle · 30/09/2018 18:55

They’re cotton shopping bags and Cis my arse would be a great quote to put on them Grin
