Even if the woman hating foot stampers do kick up a fuss, it’s too late 😂

How marvellous. We need all the good news we can get at the moment

'I spent a few minutes re-folding the Metros at my tube station this morning to make sure the ad was on top.'

LOVE this! Well done Smile

Oooh I’m travelling by train today so will look out for it! Might grab and refold a few copies to leave in my wake too. Brilliant.

Iused2BanOptimist · 10/10/2018 13:09

Excellent ad. Well done FPFW. Must remember to email Metro when I get home to thank them. Just in case they are deluged by complaints from the few.

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 10/10/2018 13:09

Well done FPFW. That can't just be deleted at the click of a button when the borg complains and claims it's transphobic.

Thank you Fair Play For Women 👏👏👏

ADastardlyThing · 10/10/2018 13:10

This is glorious. It reaches out to exactly the people it needs to - the Joe Normals who still think a sex change is needed to be treated as the opposite sex (I say treated cos, you know, can't change sex, people are only being polite and going along with the fiction blah blah blah).

Really well done FPFW, and thank you.

ILuvBirdsEye · 10/10/2018 13:18

I can't believe I missed it!

hellandhairnets · 10/10/2018 13:23

Cor, the backlash will be enormous on this one.

Don your flak jackets, ladies.

thatwouldbeanecumenicalmatter · 10/10/2018 13:24

Thank you @Iused2BanOptimist I’ve just emailed them at [email protected] like you say I’m sure they’ll be getting plenty of complaints threats

Excellent and long overdue.
There will be much frothing and feigning offense following shortly Grin

TiredPony · 10/10/2018 13:38

I've emailed the Metro to thank them.
Anything on Twitter about this from the TRAs?

Fantastic! Star Star Star Star Star

My favourite Twitter comment:- Yes, women with penises are women. Women without uteruses are women. Women who cannot reproduce are women. Organs (and whether they function or not) do not make a woman or a man. As much as you waste your money on stupid ads, you cannot change science and reality which nicely shows us the thought processes of so many people - and ending in a complete reversal of the truth. No dear, you can't change science and reality - but you're giving it a bloody good go.

Apparently they've taken over the hashtag.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 10/10/2018 13:46

wow, that is such a good ad

fair play have spent the money donated to them o effectively

#ChooseReality

Oh yes

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 10/10/2018 13:48

Apparently they've taken over the hashtag

go on, enlighten me. what's the genderist version of reality?

OvaHere · 10/10/2018 13:50

Well done FPFW.

I don't care about the hashtag takeover. They will make themselves look dim with all kinds of reality denying doublespeak. The commuters will just read the paper and get on with their day.

I also believe that this will not be won on Twitter, but by engaging people in real life and explaining to them, what TWAW is about in legal terms and consequently in reality. This whole thing could only gain traction because the people are generally in the dark about it.

IfNotNowThenWhen1 · 10/10/2018 14:00

Great! I have emailed the metro news desk also to say thank you, and have outlined why being concerned about self id and wanting women and transsexuals to be consulted on something that affects them is not "hate", in anticipation of the inevitable onslaught they will be getting when the blue hairs have had brunch.

BernardBlacksWineIcelolly · 10/10/2018 14:06

I have also emailed to say thank you. I think they may need it.....
