The 11 Strangest ‘Resolutions’ From A UK Feminist Conference

by Austin Petersen

5. Motion 509: Supporting women on the front line

No, this isn’t an expression of support for women in the armed forces. Did you forget what sort of conference this is? Rather, it’s a show of support for women on the other front line, namely, the feminist one.

“Feminism is hard, emotive and exhausting work,” the resolution reads, and accordingly the resolution calls for NUS to expend greater effort in providing support networks and mental health aid to feminist activists, female caseworkers, and others.

Notably, this motion is prefaced with a “Content warning” that it discusses rape and sexual assault.
