feminist swag

April 1, 2004 10:31 AM posted by april : track it (0)

I'm looking for a choice-friendly t-shirt to sport at the March for Choice/Women on April 25. Any suggestions?

If any of you are looking for feminist swag, check out:
the Feminist Majority's online store: kudos for doing both fitted and not fitted tees, and for doing a slightly larger range of sizes than some places, but why does the "radical feminist" shirt only come in pink?
Dyke Tees: mostly queer themed, but with a feminist angle in a lot of cases
the NOW store: an excellent source for stickers, buttons and such
Wacky Jac: purveyor of undies with a sex- and woman-friendly bent, lots of cute and clever pagan stuff
the variety of feminist Cafe Press stores: they get some bad press, but it's an easy way for people with something to say to sell shirts with that something printed upon them
Bust magazine's store: lots of pink. why are feminists so pink?
Cinnamon's Poise shop: maker of my favorite pro-choice bag, among other pretty things
Coyote's Corner: lots of generally progressive swag, not super-feministy - but remarkable because they carry a good range of large sizes

Any other suggestions? The perfect pro-choice march t-shirt just isn't falling in my lap here. I'd like something that's actually kinda cute and fitted, but with a message that might make you think "my god, does your t-shirt really say THAT".

Heh, it's not that feminists are so pink, it's probably Bust. There's a reason I don't read that mag. :)

"Barbara Made The Wrong Choice"
Okay, I know that's kind of sick and more anti-Bush than Pro-Choice...but it amuses me.

Irregular Goods has a variety of progressive tees, including quite a number of pro-choice ones. The one I ordered for the event (and received with no problems whatsoever) reads, "I'll give up my choice when George W. Bush gets pregnant."

Also, mine's yellow and black on a white background. No pink anywhere. Doesn't Bust know that redheads can't wear pink?
