Anyone know where I can get a purple / white / green striped jumper or t-shirt? DD1 has a pride mufti day at school & has decided she wants to make go in suffragette colours (v proud of her). Had a quick search of t'web but can only find stuff with logos, which is too much. She's just wants the colours - stripes, swirls or spots.

Is womens suffrage relavent to the Pride celebration? I'm gender critical, have lots of suffragette coloured stuff etc, but I don't think suffrage and Pride are relavent to one another are they?

What about some good old fashioned food colouring and tie dye?

Purple used to be the lesbian colour if she wants to be an ally.

Presumably it’s an individual protest.

And a couple of suffragette buttons too?

I believe the suffragette colours have been claimed for the ‘genderqueer’ flag, so if she’s nervous about making a statement, she could always mention that (whilst laughing).

Why should she lie and pretend to be something she's not?

Do the LGB Alliance still sell shirts?

DoctorLawn · 27/05/2023 20:38

How about this:

How about layering bright purple and green tops from shops like primark or h&m?

PoshCoffee · 27/05/2023 20:41

//Violet.Vend.com might have something

Why are schools having PRIDE Mufti days? So we have gone from World Book Day in reception to everyone having to embrace genderwoo.
This is really not on when you think about it.

Not quite what you asked:
there is a song 'Somewhere over the rainbow....'

Suffragette coloured t-shirt (or jumper)
dcbc1234 · 27/05/2023 22:41

Perhaps she could find a rainbow dinosaur...

PickAChew · 27/05/2023 22:45

What about the green. And why is it modeled with open thighs?

FemaleAndLearning · 27/05/2023 23:25

I think she will be confused with being gender queer who have used very similar colours. Not many children know about the suffragette flag colours. Why not just go in dark colours or grey as a protest? Or just go in school uniform to show she doesn't want to take part? Pride us a political movement and should not be compulsory to take part.

Thanks all. @BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz -suffragette coloured scarfs got a number of SMP banned from their chamber last year for supporting the concept of biological sex. The vote was about women's rights & so is this.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I'm going to buy 3 plain hoodies and cut & shunt them into 3 suffragette striped ones.
