#RespectMySex” is a new campaign, run by a collaborative organisation called Women Uniting.
The women behind Women Uniting are Caroline Fiske, Heather Binning, and Maya Forstater; all three are expert and experienced campaigners who recognise the importance of a clear definition of “woman” in the defence of our sex-based rights and services.
These women are doing fabulous work promoting their campaign in the media, but it’s still true that you’re more likely to see them on GBNews, than on the BBC, which is very unfair!
This video includes a promotional video by WomenUniting, which explains the #RespectMySex campaign, in full.
They have produced great resources for women to use to get out their message. Clear, vivid graphics featuring “honesty questions”, which are simple questions that reveal a lot about the character of candidates.
They have also got a very clear Letition to sign, and sample emails to send to your local candidates; resources to print out to ask candidates questions at the door; a sample “letter to the editor” to send to your local paper.
You could even set up and run a street stall to publicise the campaign: do contact them directly for further support with this.
On 1st May, we will be celebrating women-only space by having lunches with female friends. These can be any combination of support and political action: it’s completely up to you! I’ll be posting on #LadiesWhoLunch: you might not want to be in a public photo, so consider photographing campaign literature, or hints at your location, or a beautifully presented dessert!
I made a promotional video for #LadiesWhoLunch, included in this video, but I’ll be uploading it separately for ease of sharing.
