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, let’s 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 ‘trans’ 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/">https://www.womenarehuman.com/boycott-o...

@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.. ‘men have periods too.’ 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">https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/2...
Always Removes Female Symbol From Sanitary Pads (Published 2019)

The redesign was a response to requests from nonbinary and transgender customers.

We could all find a plethora of examples of the @guardian telling women they don’t matter (not withstanding words by the brilliant @suzanne_moore) but this erasure and renaming of women as ‘Menstruators’ 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/">https://www.thepoke.co.uk/2018/10/2...

We all know #TwitterHatesWomen as the high numbers of women (and a few men) banned for saying ‘men aren’t women tho’ 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 ‘hate speech’. Their threads about rape, ‘struggle-fucking’, 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 for this boycott list? @RadioTimes Twitter acc may be run by misogynistic blue-haired interns, but I’m hoping the magazine itself might still yet be in the hands of the grown-ups. Watchful waiting.

Not to worry, I switched to @bodyform after their stellar advertising campaign celebrated the reality of women and girls’ lives in such a ground-breaking way.

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.
