We’re saddened & disappointed to hear Audacious Women Fest, whom we supported strongly in the past, have failed to engage with women asking for clear, inclusive policies on the inclusion of all women & gender non conforming people at their events. We won’t carry their flyers til this changes.
Thank you Glasgow Women's Library - follow us on Bluesky for supporting our trans and nb sisters and boycotting the TERF politics of Audacious Women Fest
Shout out to Glasgow Women's Library - follow us on Bluesky for withdrawing from the Audacious Women Fest! x.com/womenslibrary/…
The way Audacious Women Fest is choosing to define "women" is offensive and insensitive. We hope other organisations will now honour the boycott of the festival for its trans & nb exclusionary stance.

Queer Classics CCA 'I hope Hollywood casting directors will realise that they need to do better and start casting queer people in queer roles (like the brilliantly-cast tangerine (2015)). Until then, maybe we will need to keep looking to the margins to find our contemporary queer idols.'
