@GussetGripper

Do take a bow! (At least, I really think this is you?!)

And even when women write eloquently about any of this the left wing press won’t publish it so it ends up in The Mail, Times or Telegraph so can be dismissed as right wing bigotry sharing a platform with Tories, racists and homophobes.

Very interesting historical context. I’m grateful to those posters who have raised and discussed it, because I’d forgotten I knew this iyswim.

WarriorN · 24/12/2022 08:54

No, Lockheart, i know you didn't, I was responding to other comments about flashing dicks. Sorry I didn't make that clear.

Thanks for sharing this. Elaine speaks so well. Definitely a sheroe!

In an environment where even writing your thoughts down nicely about how you would like to protect women's rights can lose your income, friends, family and encounter threats from the public - such a bold political protest was welcome by me.

We've talked on our anonymous accounts, we have refused to answer pronoun questions, petitioned and some made public speeches, entered into social media wars and we were still all led straight to the Scottish GRC reforms.

You can be a suffragette or a suffragist but I'm grateful to have someone like Elaine trying something new as what we are doing currently isn't working.

the 'suffragists' who campaigned using peaceful methods such as lobbying, and the 'suffragettes' who were determined to win the right to vote for women by any means. Their militant campaigning sometimes included unlawful and violent acts which attracted much publicity.

I thought it was pure genius and has contextual historical significance.

The modern equivalent of throwing yourself under the kings horse without clogging up the nhs.

I also reflected that society is very happy to film and traffic women and girls' genitals when they want to, but gets in a tizz when we take control with fun fur and sticky back tape.

The resistance is coming, and mine has funky fur…

 brilliant @Bosky, I hope you're feeling better today, sending immune power vibes and a very merry Xmas!

WarriorN - "I hope you're feeling better today, sending immune power vibes and a very merry Xmas!"

Thank you kindly, but these are Elaine's words in the video description, not mine!

"Ha ha ha) I’m a bit unwell and a bit fed up so not terribly animated."

A very merry Xmas to you too! 💚💟💜

Hilarious that they've covered up the merkin. Seems there are an awful lot of men who genuinely can't tell the difference between a giant hairy wig and a woman's natural pubic area. We really do need better sex education in our schools.

Datun · 24/12/2022 17:00

It's amazing, isn't it, how people get genuinely affronted by a woman flashing a pair of flesh coloured tights with a sewn on pubic wig attached.

You all know that's what it was. And yet you're still uncomfortable. Why? Because it's so fucking gender nonconforming. Even when it's not real.

What she would like to have done, I'm absolutely certain, as would I, and as would hundreds of thousands of women, is to storm up to those parliamentarians, grab them by the collar and scream fuck off, you fucking women hating bastards, inches from their face.

I can absolutely promise you that the urge to do that, for numerous women, is almost uncontrollable.

So spare me the bleating over a women driven to distraction by having the most disgusting misogyny rubbed in her face, using a fucking wig and a pair of tights as a protest, whilst forgetting that she's supposed to be a ladyyyy.

Datun · 24/12/2022 17:02

And yes, I hope it trends like the bloody clappers.

And that every website in the country is sold out of merkins. And women up and down the land wear them at every available opportunity.

It'll go nicely with my pussy hat. (Didn't notice that being thought of as offensive. except by rampant TRAs who don't have one).

Honestly Terry what in the name of fucking hell's fuck are women supposed to do?

Numerous women's groups, every single MP in the land inundated with letters, radio stations hosting talks, women on TV networks, talking in mainstream media, articles in the most widely read and popular newspapers in the land - none of it fucking mattered.

The male of the species wouldn't think twice about going up and smacking someone under those circumstances.

And people are complaining about a fucking fake bush.

Jeez.

RoyalCorgi · 24/12/2022 17:43

Datun - as ever you have summed up my feelings perfectly. I have never felt such rage in my life.

This. Absolutely this.

I was pretty certain how the vote was going to go, despite all our efforts, despite writing regularly to MSP's, signing petitions, pleading with people to consider safeguarding and despite the shockingly poor arguments and questions left unanswered by those who supported the Bill.

Still the sheer rage I felt, standing in my kitchen, reading that my country's politicians had voted to make women and girls in Scotland less safe, that they were congratulating themselves for it and actually fucking applauded male TRA's in the public gallery who have previously openly made threats against women.

All this nice girl crap honestly makes me roll my eyes. Women are absolutely raging and a merkin stuck to a pair of tights is seen as distasteful?

Oh yes. Just because you can watch the fucking car crash in the most incrementally, minuscule slow motion, doesn't make the explosion any bloody less.

I know, right? Talk about your fucking priorities.

Datun · 24/12/2022 18:18

Haha! I was just about to say excuse my French, and all the 'fuckings'.

But naaaaaahhhh. 😄

Neither have I Corgi, and that's saying something - anger is probably my defining personality trait!

aseriesofstillimages · 23/12/2022 12:31

i don’t know why people keep referring to the FNL thing, a late night channel 4 comedy show is a very different context from this.

not that personally I think what she did was wrong, but I do think there are some double standards going on with regard to how people on both sides who clearly feel very deeply and personally about the issues choose to express their anger and frustration.

Fine, you personally feel its double standards, you go tell her.

We dont all have the same opinion, you have as much right to voice your disapproval. But telling us wont change it. If you are that bothered go tell her.
We cant stop her, we dont have a hive mind (despite the rumours)

I'm another that just wanted to scream.

Mine was more "what the fuck are you thinking, you fucking arseholes" as the vote passed.

How the women in the gallery kept so restrained is beyond me. I know I wouldn't have been able to, as I'm just so fucking angry that our politicians seem so incapable of any sort of critical thinking, and so willingly threw away the safety and rights of women and girls

I cannot understand how they could stand there and say some of the shit that came out of their mouths through the amendments etc.

Even the fact that I was finding myself agreeing with everything, more of less, that was coming out of the mouths of Conservatives was rage inducing because that's not where I politically fall usually.

But for now I shall breathe deeply, find my inner peace and continue to eat my way through the cheese and crackers. Closely followed by giant wotsits and then after eights whilst i work out how much of the cat i need to shave to make a merkin.

That sounds like an excellent way to proceed for the moment boiledbeetle 😆

Boiledbeetle · 24/12/2022 21:00

The cat seems to have read my mind and done a runner out the cat flap. I'm currently eying up the neighbours car but he's short haired and white. Never mind I have nothing else to do tomorrow so i shall await the return of the long haired mainly black one.

Eats more giant wotsits (shit i wish i had never discovered these)

Boiledbeetle · 24/12/2022 21:01

Cat! their car would be bloody useless unless i remove the side panel and do an iron man version merkin
