Dr Martens supporting Merm**ds!

[Soontobe60]

So it seems like Dr Martens are now supporting our favouring children’s LGBTQ++++ charity. How disappointing!

They think: virtue signaling win!
I think: blood on your scummy corporate hands.

How fucking backwards of them.

I will stop bloody advertising them for free on the style pages then.

I will not support organisations in favour of medicalising gay and autistic children.

Glad I switched to Solovair. Bye bye, Doc Martens!

Oh FFS.

They’ve been in my sh*t list for a while anyway. I can’t even remember why now! Probably a stunt like this.

Solovair it is then. W*nkers. Overpriced these days anyway

Disappointed. Though probably not as disappointed as the company when they see the pitiful number of likes and check out the savage quote tweets.

If they were going to endorse Mermaids it would've been better if they'd done it several years ago. Nowadays, what with Cass and the Tavistock GIDS closing...

I havd never heard of solovair. They are beautiful.

They were the original makers of Dr Martens, before production of DMs moved abroad (and saw a considerable drop in quality).

Ooh that’s a ratio!

Whenever I see a ridiculous medical report justifying a female child being “trans” because she’s wearing “boys’ clothes” I always think of the 1990s when girls wearing jeans and DMs was just normal. DM should be helping us get back to that, not reinforcing such stereotypical bullshit.

What is wrong with these companies?
Of all the charities they chose this toxic mess?
Wagamama now dr.martens.
I need new boots, I really wanted a pair of stacked Dr martens after my old ones wore out after years of daily wear, guess I will have to shop around.

So doc martins would have had me medicalised on the basis that my 1980s mid-teen self wore small mens doc Martin boots (because their hadn’t clocked into the marketing potential of selling to girls and women back the) and mens jeans? On the ‘professional opinion’ of these ghouls?

Do they even know their own history?

Have they blocked the comments? I can only see 3 positive comments.

are we not allowed to mention mermaids on here?

Solovair all the way, even before this. They ARE beautiful, and hand made in England.

Yes, it says that only people who are friends of Mermaids can comment.

I don't know who does their marketing but they are really behind the 8-ball on this.

Ooops, quoted wrong post, meant the one next to it.

Gosh what a time to be aligning themselves with MMs. Very unfortunate.

This!

I was going to buy a pair of their boots for autumn. Guess I won’t be now!

Solovair all the way!

So according to Doc Martens , it would have been ok for 15 year old me who was a skinny wee Smiths fan complete with flat top, DM boots and jeans to have my breasts and womb removed ? Mermaids are fecking hideous. Do these companies not do a bit of basic research?

I wear Dr Martens sandals all summer long and their suede boots all winter.
Won’t be buying any more from a company who supports this dangerous charity.

Thanks for the Solovair link!

I was another young teen who wore Docs, army fatigues and a donkey jacket with short hair. A dangerous Look where the likes of Mermaids are concerned
