Hello everyone A number of people have asked me if we're going to organise a meeting point for those of us who are joining SlutWalk London, and so I thought I'd get off my backside and actually do it. The march starts at 1pm at the top of Piccadilly near the Hard Rock Cafe. I suggest we meet at the top of Constitution Hill near the Wellington Arch at 12noon, which should give plenty of time for everyone to arrive, chit-chat, and for me to go off for my stewarding duties (apologies in advance, there is a risk I'll have a megaphone...). (The pointy thing on the map isn't in exactly the right place, but hopefully you get the idea. Nearest tube, Hyde Park Corner). Full details about SlutWalk London can be found on their website here: http://slutwalklondon.tumblr.com/ or their facebook events page here: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=1707409263... I hope to see many of you there! [This thread is NOT about the rights/wrongs of the name SlutWalk, victim blaming, or even rape itself. This thread is about a meeting point for those who want to march in support of SlutWalk. If you want to talk about those other issues a whole other thread already got filled up, or there's the one on the Manchester march still going, or start your own. Thank you.] Still not quite myself but time to be me again... Edited Sat 4 Jun 11, 10:38 AM by rose_in_chains |

Bump.  I'll be at Trafalgar Sq from 10.30am getting my stewarding instructions. If anyone else can spare the full day and fancies stewarding, please get in touch with slutwalk, more stewards are needed! Otherwise, see you all (and hopefully 5k other people!) there on Saturday! Twitterati? I'm emilyrose_uk - see you there? |

Not been feeling too great recently, and have FSC in the evening, but should be there for some of the walk, sorry I cannot volunteer to steward. |

Bumping this to selfishly keep it near the top of the boards. I know loads of you are coming, if you want a place to meet up with other kinky folk who are also walking, here's where to do it!
If you prefer your own groups, away from little ole me that's entirely understandable, very wise, and I don't blame you a bit! x Twitterati? I'm emilyrose_uk - see you there? |

You and a megaphone! (insert icon of hands over ears) So wish I was able to join you on the SlutWalk but alas can't get away. Hope the sunshines for all of you. D x "The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once." Albert Einstein |

Good luck at today's march everyone. Manchester's march last night went well... hundreds of us marching slow pace for two hours.. chanting. Two incidents of people attempting to attack the protest, police were only few but vigilant and helpful. Keep your wits about you  It's brilliant to see BDSM people attending the protests. We don;t need to mention issues which affect us outside the remit of Slutwalk.. being present and visible says it for us. Same as being present as a visible disabled person does. For freedom!
