Sexuality
This website archives and shares feminist posters, postcards and stickers for you to print and paste, to encourage designing and sharing feminist posters and putting up them in public places. Sexist advertisement and misogynist media are all around us. If we want to fight this patriarchal propaganda, we have to produce our own images and messages. You can contribute your own self-made posters, postcards and stickers too.

Some anarchist feminists in Sheffield have created a network to share ideas, work together in direct action and join together in solidarity. We invite anyone who wishes to discuss anarchist feminist issues, whether they would class themselves as anarchist feminist or not, to join us in at our meetings or events, regardless of gender. We only require that people are respectful and we reject all racist, sexist and homophobic views because this network is a liberated space.
