Announcement about ManFriday

With great sadness the ManFriday team would like to announce that we have decided to hang up our beards and bring ManFriday to an end.
It's been a brilliant year and we've achieved so much but with the FPFW campaign and so much other things going on we feel the group has run it's course.

While we won't be actively campaigning our Twitter will remain open drawing attention to the cause and you can still buy feminist bags and badges on etsy and Facebook Wink

We'd like to thank everyone who has supported ManFriday right from the start, all the women that have worked in the background as well as those participating in direct action.

Thank you! Flowers

Thanks Man Friday. I still think of your stunts and smile sometimes.

The warmth and self-deprecating humour cut through a tense and hostile climate when nothing else seemed to be getting through.

Well done FlowersCakeWineGinStar

Thank you, ManFriday, for bringing humour to the cause! I was so pleased to meet you in Manchester.

I used my ManFriday bag as my signifier when organising the GRA consultation meeting (all two of us Grin) in Cheshire. Worked a treat Grin.

Thank you, especially for the pond visit!

scepticalwoman · 20/11/2018 23:05

Thank you for being some of the first women that I heard on the radio, explaining with real clarity what some of the issues were. You brought the the issue to the media / public's attention with good humour and a gentle ridicule of the nonsense out there.

I am sure that the stresses have been considerable. I salute you.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 20/11/2018 23:08

Well done chaps. However, ‘it’s a thing’ now!

QueenieMum · 20/11/2018 23:08

It was good.

I shall continue to wear my #ManFriday I Am Sportacus tee shirt with pride.

FadingMint · 20/11/2018 23:09

ManFriday! So very inspiring!

You certainly helped to bring this issue out into the light, into public consciousness.

Wish you all well, and really wish I could buy you all a drink of your choice.

Brava and bravo, my friends.

BoreOfWhabylon · 20/11/2018 23:54

Man Friday really brought the whole madness into the public eye and showed up the stark bollock naked Emperor.

The flowery swimming hat has earned its place in history.

Well done chaps!

Binglebong · 21/11/2018 00:03

Thank you, you have done so much. I'm not tired to think of clever words but I trust you will see the sentiment anyway. GrinGin
