Calling all radfems/GC/concerned women and allies.

It strikes me that we should use the upcoming 2021 census to protest the erasure of females and sex.

Data is increasingly corrupted by conflating gender and sex, and the census is a key data source. /1

Following the women fighting for the vote in 1911, who used the census as a protest (“if women don’t count, neither shall they be counted”), how can we make best use of this opportunity to point out that sex matters?

Let’s get creative. Ideas please. /2 https://www.historic-uk.com/HistoryUK/HistoryofBritain/No-Vote-No-Census-1911-Census-Protests/

We also need a decent hashtag for this protest. I’m terrible at these so all ideas welcome.

In the words of the fabulous @kiritunks:

This is a movement.

We are the movement.

Let’s move.
