    As a trans person, I’m not the biggest fan of these stickers. I just don’t think it will change any minds of transphobes, seems more likely to make them angrier and more prone to ask if a person should be in… “their” bathroom.

    It’s not my intent to tone police or criticize, everyone should do as they see best. I’ve seen these irl and it’s not like I tear them off, I just think they are more self gratification than activism. But even saying that, in these fucked up times, any trans joy is worthwhile.

    I like to be sneaky. I dont want staff removing them. So I usually do the underside of the toilet seat (for mens room or unisex bathrooms), or the side of the toilet roll holder that faces the toilet.

      If you don’t want staff removing them then wheatpaste. It is a lot harder to remove things that were wheatpasted. 😉

          I once spent an entire evening removing nazi homophobic posters from my uni campus, wheat paste fucking sucks to get off even with water. I had a spray bottle with me and for most of them I had to just scratch off the worst parts and leave them up.

            Wheatpaste is just starches. It just seems logical that it would still be water soluble, is all. I personally have never tried to remove wheatpaste off of anything and dried starches can be a pain to deal with. (Clothes are an exception: you just throw the thing in the wash and be done with it.)

            (Of all things I have typed on the internets, I never would have guessed a preliminary analysis on wheatpaste would be one of them. Lulz.)

                Yeah, isopropyl or acetone may not play nice with plastics. Not only does it take time to dissolve superglue with IPA or acetone, you risk melting the plastic. (Acetone and ABS plastic are especially incompatible. Just the vapor will turn ABS into goo.)

    I may or may not be willing to deface every bathroom everywhere it’s these.

      Why not sell these at cost? Majority of your orders are likely able to fit in an envelope with a stamp?
