Vagina Museum

Because people would go and say mean things about trans women.

They are not obliged to be a platform for other peoples mean words.

Good for them

Why is talking about basic human biology mean?

Have you got a link to that tweat, grannydarkhair, because I've just been on their Twitter feed and don't see anything dated today about that.

Happy to be proved wrong, if you can provide a link.

Argh! Tweet

GagaJo sorry I have no idea how to provide a link. I’ve just had a look and the original introductory tweet appears to have disappeared. But if you scroll down their feed, all the “9 hr” ago tweets are about trans women and followed on after the missing tweet. That’s the best I can offer. It’s also mentioned in a Mumsnet thread tonight.

JaxJacky thanks.

I suppose it makes sense - trans women are women, after all.

AmberSpyglass we’ll have to disagree on that.

Are they ?

No they're not AmberSpyglass they are trans women.

No they are women, trans is just their type of women.

Bit like

White woman
Black woman
Tall woman
Old woman
Young woman

Etc

I didn’t know there is a Vagina Museum in the UK. Or is it somewhere else?

So men are claiming gynaecological anatomy now? Even the self-identifying ones who have male anatomy?

Sadly, I'm not surprised any more, but it's bloody depressing.

Yes it is "bloody depressing" Doodledog. What is the world coming too when International Women's Day can't be kept for women.

It's next door to the Penis Museum.

I disagree Violet Sky. I’m happy with tall, short, black, white because that’s exactly what they are. Nobody became tall, black, white etc. it’s an integral part of their make-up.

A trans woman is actually a man.

What’s mean about saying a man is not female?

Callistemon! ?

I dont think the museum exists in a physical sense at the moment, it lost its premises some time ago but was supposed to be re opening soon.

I just looked it up Smileless, and it made me laugh. Apparently the world’s only penis museum is in Iceland, which seems quite inappropriate!

Thanks for the information Callistemon

Galaxy I think there’s one in Amsterdam, or is that a Penis Museum

No it's British It's in Bethnal Green. www.vaginamuseum.co.uk
I thought what a lot of rubbish initially but they look to have a lot of young women actively involved. So any progress and involvement in feminism seems good to me.

Ooops, Casdon’s just corrected me. I wonder why I didn’t visit when I was in Iceland?
