The irony is obviously lost on them. Mermaids and Trans people are calling for better security at Pride in London to protect them "after last year" but still trying to flog their lesbian merch.

The comments are very telling.

Some people are saying that this is in line with their previous slogans ie 'Some People are Gay get over it' etc. and nothing to do with singling out Lesbians as not being women.

However, Stonewall have previously deviated from the wording of the slogan with "Transwomen are women get over it" so I think this interpretation is disingenuous.

Transwall can fuck off, that is all.

Some people are lesbians??

Surely that should read some women are lesbians?

littlbrowndog · 08/04/2019 11:15

Yeps should be some women. Fuckers stonewall

I think a t-shirt with “some people are female, get over it” at the march would go down a treat.

sawdustformypony · 08/04/2019 11:23

Amusingly (well I thought so), merch is the Welsh word for girl.

hardgallife · 08/04/2019 11:57

These are not new. As far as I can remember Stonewall have been selling the 'Some people are lesbian' tshirts for about 10 years.

Ringdonna · 08/04/2019 12:01

This is old news.

JackyHolyoake · 08/04/2019 12:02

Maybe Stonewall would like to make a T-shirt out of this?

Well why don't they put their money where their mouth is and say some men are lesbians, get over it.

Come on, Stonewall. If you're the right side of history, let's hear you say something historical.

Lesbians! Some dick is lady.

Get over it! NB We mean that literally.

NB We mean literally in its original definition.

stillathing · 08/04/2019 13:33

They do a poster that says "Gay! Let's get the meaning straight"

I though this was at least more honest about their true intentions, for gay women and children anyway.

I know they launched them before but I did think it was cheeky fuckery to promote them again when they are negotiating about which types of lesbians can go to Pride in London....

I just dont get it. The older lesbians who are in charge in these womens and gay organizations (toksvig etc) know full well they aren't considering lady peen. So why are they going along with it.

Some women are lesbians, really?! And what exactly is a lesbian stonewall? You seem to be unable to describe such a person these days, and think being attracted to one sex is bigoted.

I would! I love a good GC t-shirt for starting conversations Grin
