Visual show of dissent

[mayhemrulesok]

I'll start by saying that although I dip in and out of this section, I haven't read everything or contributed much as there are many more brave and knowledgeable people who do post and I'd rather hear/read what's been said.

I've been talking about this issue locally for years and for personal reasons have been focused on the sports side but fully appreciate that men should not be allowed to enter women's spaces at will. I also agree that spaces should be defined by sex not gender.

I know that most people, even now, have limited knowledge of how the transmovement is impacting on women, many are afraid to discuss the subject due to the repercussions faced by women who have stood up to make their point.

I would like to recognise others and be able to show our government the strength of feeling on this issue. The suffragettes used scarfs, banners, rallies, pins to show their support of the movement.

I'm wondering if any plans have been made to restart the movement because this might be a good time to do so.

If this has already happened then please point me in the direction. If not, maybe this could be the place to start?

Jess de wal (sp) dies a wonderful line in feminist embroidered badges and patches there's also lots of suff online on posies site even the nichola Stergeon destroyer of women's rights tee-shirts.

The Adult Human Female store has the t-shirts and various other merch to, in their words “be the billboard”.

You can get to the shop by scrolling down and clicking in the icon relevant to your location.

I think if we post links directly to any shops the thread will be deleted.

Amazing. Thank-you.

Ebay have a good range of lanyards and badges;

Harry Potter merch :) Saying you love Harry Potter's become code for actual lesbians to find each other on lesbian dating apps inundated by men, since saying "no thanks, not into transwomen" is a bannable offense on most of them.

I think they're temporarily out of stock at the moment, but the Ministry of Tartan do scarves and wraps in the official Suffragette tartan: https://theministryoftartan.co.uk/product-category/suffragette_tartan_range/

I really love the people too jewellery. Think I'll be making an order on payday! I like the idea of wearing a very lovely but discreet symbol that others who know will know.

I like the idea of wearing a visual symbol but have become far less comfortable with suffragette colours since learning of the WSPU bomb, letter bomb and arson attacks.

But I am happy to be corrected if those were also the colours of the peaceful-means suffragists?

I was thinking of suffragette sashes or banners for sports events, instead of saying "votes for women", they could say " sports for women". Something to be displayed at events like the women's world cup (Australia and New Zealand, this year).

The tra movement hijacked lgbt and their flag, the gc movement needs to fly its own.

I'm definitely getting earrings as well, and a pin badge.

If you subscribe to Sex Matters (small donation) they also have a pin and a bit of merch than you can use/wear. I have a nice X pin and mug that came from them.

Wild Womyn Workshop has great stuff too.
