With brands such as @Tesco @Google and @TheBodyShopUK showing their misogyny recently, I wondered.. Does anyone have an existing thread of brands to boycott for those of us who understand women exist? Or do we need to compile one here?

For starters, letâs not overlook the sponsors of the next Olympic Games, where many females are likely to lose out on a gold medal to a male...

@Tesco support Mermaids - a charity who do not like scrutiny regarding questions of safeguarding re: LGB and GNC children, in their race to affirm and medicalise âtransâ children. #conversiontherapy

@StarbucksUK is another one supporting Mermaids and their reckless lack of due process in evaluating GNC children.

@TheBodyShopUK showed their misogyny when they tweeted a hugely insensitive post about @JkRowling who had shared personal stories of her experiences of DV when standing up for women. https://www.womenarehuman.com/boycott-of-the-body-shop-over-jk-rowling-tweet/
Flora pulled advertising from Mumsnet after the site was smeared by TRAs as âtransphobicâ for... you guessed it, talking about women and womenâs rights. Boycott this brand who refuses to listen to women. https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/mumsnet-transphobic-flora-upfield-boycott-a9155016.html
@GoogleUK took a surprising turn into politics campaigning for changes to the GRA which will actively erase the boundaries and distinctions between male and female people, and consequently the right to single-sex spaces and services that women fought for so long to achieve.
Always (owned by Procter & Gamble) ditched the female symbol off their packaging on feminine hygiene products because.. âmen have periods too.â The erasure of the reality of females in favour of male feelz. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/22/business/always-pads-female-symbol.html
We could all find a plethora of examples of the @guardian telling women they donât matter (not withstanding words by the brilliant @suzanne_moore) but this erasure and renaming of women as âMenstruatorsâ is a classic in their Misogynistic Hall of Fame. https://www.thepoke.co.uk/2018/10/25/guardian-called-women-menstruators-people-saw-red-favourite-responses/
@TeenVogue have been showing misogyny, sex-denial, and creepy grooming tendencies towards their young readers for a while. Beware.

We all know #TwitterHatesWomen as the high numbers of women (and a few men) banned for saying âmen arenât women thoâ will testify. @Twitter continue their Orwellian distortion of language into Newspeak. This degradation of language disempowers females.

#RedditHatesWomen too, banning various feminist and gender critical threads after changes in their rules on what qualifies as âhate speechâ. Their threads about rape, âstruggle-fuckingâ, porn and paedophilia all remain untouched though. #Misogyny

@Change side with trans rights activists against female rape victims. The right for women to speak out about their reality is once again sidelined to prioritise the feelz and needz of men. No Change there then.

Another one to add to the boycott list: @netflix who are quite happy to brainwash children with wrong body/pink and blue brain theory despite mounting evidence of the irreversible medical harms this can lead to.

Slightly different, but please boycott Caroline Bosnians due to concerns over promotion of child sexualisation/ paedophilia.

Another one for this boycott list? @RadioTimes Twitter acc may be run by misogynistic blue-haired interns, but Iâm hoping the magazine itself might still yet be in the hands of the grown-ups. Watchful waiting.

@superdrug show their contempt for women by erasing the word on their own-brand sanitary product.

Oh dear, @Tampax. Not you too. You have one job, one target audience.
Not to worry, I switched to @bodyform after their stellar advertising campaign celebrated the reality of women and girlsâ lives in such a ground-breaking way.

@sainsburys donât seem to realise women need our single-sex spaces. Perhaps they are happy for us to start shopping elsewhere. https://twitter.com/alisdisgrace/status/1319894744181465089?s=21 https://twitter.com/Alisdisgrace/status/1319894744181465089

@Primark are two more big chains @Debenhams that allow males access to female changing rooms.
Unisex changing rooms are proven to compromise the safety of women and girls.

âIn response... a spokesperson for Debenhams told The Independent: "We are sorry for any distress caused to the customer.

All UK retailers should read this excellent breakdown from @fairplaywomen
âAdvice to service providers about female-only changing roomsâ to make sure they are compliant with the law and best placed to protect vulnerable women and girls in their stores. https://fairplayforwomen.com/changing_rooms/

As well as asking the public to swallow Mermaids cookies, literally, at a time when organisations such as BBC and NHS are distancing themselves from this problematic charity, @Starbucks use the growing Transgender trend to sell more coffee. https://stories.starbucks.com/emea/stories/2020/whatsyourname/
@NescafeAzera also getting in on the fashionable Transgender trend. Sorry, NescafĂ©, women exist - we just do. We donât need to âexpress an identityâ to validate it or line your pockets. However, we can acknowledge our identity as as customers of other brands.
A reminder as we approach Christmas shopping time that @Etsy have misogynists among their policy makers, and are happy to support the abuse of @jk_rowling in their biases. Unlucky, Etsy. We say #IStandWithJKRowling and will happily shop elsewhere.
