The Pink Protest is a community of activists committed to engaging in action and supporting each other. To date, we have been a part of changing two UK laws through engaging the power of young people & utilising online activism.

We are the home of the #FreePeriods movement, and exist in various mediums; from regular IRL events, to online video content, to actual real-life protests. Founded by Scarlett Curtis (Sunday Times Style columnist), Grace Campbell (Riot Girls, Channel 4), Honey Ross and Alice Skinner (Artist & Illustrator, The Revolution Handbook)  The Pink Protest aims to redefine what activism means to young people.  We want to create a way for  activism to be not just accessible, but also fun.

Our weekly Instagram series 'On Wednesday's We Wear Pink and Protest' highlights one action YOU can take each week to start your mission as an activist today. Our regular campaigns and video series provide an easy, exciting and fun way for young people across the globe to get involved with real, grassroots activism. Our goal is highlight the work already being done by young activists and use our resources to build up their campaigns and create a global movement of young people who want to change the world.

#girlswanktoo is cuming for you 🌷 link in bio to buy tickets for our launch event 🌷 ✏️ by @thisisaliceskinner #feminism #feminist #activism #activist #pinkprotest
#girlswanktoo 🌷 is a movement founded by the Pink Protest which is set out to demystify the taboos which surround female masturbation. Masturbation, like orgasms, is a gendered issue. When a young man starts to masturbate it is seen as a coming of age moment. For women, masturbation is an uncomfortable, shameful elephant in the room. Many young women, when they begin to masturbate, feel ashamed to open up about it, for fear of seeming weird. Some women never masturbate, or venture into touching themselves, because they’ve never heard encouragement from anyone else in their lives to do so. We’re rarely encouraged to sexually explore our own anatomy and for this reason, when women come to having sex, reaching an orgasm is much harder. From our early teens, it is made clear that the value of a woman’s pleasure is less than that of a males. This is damaging, because the sexual relationship we have with our own bodies is the most important sexual relationship we will eve
#girlswanktoo 🌷 our next campaign to flatten the patriarchy by smashing the stigma around female masturbation. We are holding our first #girlswanktoo kick off event on Friday June 15th in West London with @soda.says and we want YOU to come. There will be snacks, a round table panel with an amazing line up, a gallery of kick-ass art and a lot of people talking about where they hide their vibratory. #girlswanktoo is an INCLUSIVE movement. This event welcomes everyone from non-binary people, cis women and men, trans women and men, everyone.
