While critics shouted “shame on you” at the MSPs. One woman lifted their skirt and showed what initially appeared to be her genitals.

The woman shouted, “if you are not going to be decent, I am going to be indecent.”

However, it later transpired that she had been wearing some form of fake pubic wig.

According to the Scotsman, police did not arrest the individual immediately, however, the force has since received complaints and enquiries are ongoing.

Updating my 2023 planner with Squeezy app added to habit tracker (cheers Elaine!) and merkin making added to task list. Going to be a productive year.

One thing Elaine carefully avoided was a merkin in rainbow hues…

Actually that would have been quite funny, can you imagine security going to stop her and being confronted with a rainbow going "woah stop guys. Back up, stand down, its a rainbow merkin. All is well. Can we help you lift that skirt love so your arms don't get tired"

Consciously or unconsciously, she didn’t choose to make an obviously fake merkin. Not when you look at the wide array of merkin options we have available to us. Ive just looked at one that has long feathers meant to gracefully erupt over the waistband on your knickers and tickle your belly button. I agree I’m giving to much headspace, it’s a definite rabbit hole doing searches on merkins and then paging through catalogs of merkin brands like kitty carpet. I could get today a Union Jack merkin if I felt patriotic.

No, seriously? I googled the word merkin cos I didnt know what it meant. That was the end of my research.

You are doing a deep dive <<<<smirks>>>> on a unimportant bit of the whole.

Its supposed to be a protest, as a protest it works.
If you dislike the medium so very much, go do your own protest.

@Moonatics admit it you only commented so you could post that line.

ApocalipstickNow · 28/12/2022 21:00

You should google Millie Wilson and Merkins- she made various ones for art projects in the early ‘90s.

What's the point mumsnet of having a preview post option when it doesn't appear when posted as it does in the bloody preview.

Well, ignorance is rampant amongst men and women as to what a vagina is.

You do remember a few pages back the poster who argued Elaine’s other costume was a vagina costume, specifically of internal areas of the vagina, and not a vulva costume as I had posted when it is clearly a crude approximation of a vulva?

Well not surprised that some other net denizen thinks a merkin/bush is a vagina.

Photos often take a few moments to upload to the servers, sometimes appear on the app before the browser or v.v , it's there now.

Boiledbeetle · 28/12/2022 22:47

Oh no I knew the photo would be there but when you preview a post it shows you how its supposed to look on screen and then cuts half the picture off so you have to click on out to see it all. First one as previewed second one grrr

To be fair it was me who said right at the beginning do the police know this is the same woman who walks the streets in a vagina costume.

I've sent myself to sit on the naughty step

I'm glad you came back to clarify, I was thinking eh??

ArtfullyCrumpled · 28/12/2022 23:05

Yes thought I'd better get in there. I am raging. This is so disturbing!!! Creepy bastard sneaky cowardly politicians.

Boiledbeetle · 28/12/2022 23:21

@Onnabugeisha you're right as well about the ignorance I wrote vagina on the first page because that's what my brain immediately went to when I saw her costume.

Now seeking her in her merkin I would never say look at her vagina in that situation.

But with the costume I was never taught any of the words, it was all vagina. Once you got past the pubic hair there was the bit your pee came out of and everything else down there: vagina. No other words given or bits explained and even though I now know the proper names. My head just went to vagina.

I’m sorry to hear that @Boiledbeetle. I can well believe you were never taught female anatomy, its been highlighted by many feminists that basic sexual health education in schools doesn’t cover it. I took a ton of biology/anatomy course modules at Uni level so I do know, but obviously not everyone studies this and it’s not Uni level knowledge to be fair.

They really should be covering male and female anatomy in secondary schools.

whereas from my uni days I could give you a wonderful explanation on the method of top down basement construction and concrete mix ratios

Ramblingnamechanger · 29/12/2022 00:12

Actually I am really surprised that the opposition even knows what a merkin might represent , as complete absence of anything resembling actual pubic hair is the fashion/ compulsory for women these days.

Fascinating 🧐
Did you ever watch that video of the archaeologist making water proof concrete on the beach the traditional ancient Roman way? She cured the cement in wooden box that she tossed into the waves, timed and the hauled back to shore with a rope.

Saw this on twitter. It made me laugh so...

DragonsCrisps · 26/12/2022 19:13

@Clymene , no, because nudity on a post-watershed TV show with warning in advance is different from indecent exposure, accompanied by shouting about how you're being indecent, that it is your genitals and "get it right up you" before turning around to do the same again to primary school kids.

She did not turn round to say or show anything to any children there, so get your facts right before you spout lies. I was there, you clearly were not.

RhannionKPSS · 29/12/2022 02:08

Onnabugeisha · 26/12/2022 19:26

Oh, I’m serious. Especially if it is true per app that she also wanders the streets dressed as a vagina. Sounds not right in the head.

Again with the lies. Elanie did a walking tour show of Edinburgh during the festival last year dressed a Vulva, made by another good friend of mine, very entertaining & educational it was too.
