Why...Big kudos for taking this cause forward Elly!<br /><br />Why not donate say 5% to a non-politicized (and much more needy) humanitarian charity like Women for Women in Africa, or WACIA?<br /><br />I would LOVE to buy a t-shirt version in the $30-50 price range! The shirt could appeal to nerds and space enthusiasts along with equal rights & freedom of speech advocates!<br /><br />These should be mass-produced for affordability and volume in addition to your hand-made high dollar replicas. You could even offer a more expensive polo version or mass-produced button replica.<br /><br />You should launch an Indiegogo or Kickstarter campaign!! That would give you up front capital and buyers so you know how many to make! Please respond ASAP with a link so we can share it!Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05286794287983268587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4911759560267725847.post-29014235080040367832014-11-24T13:51:09.753-08:002014-11-24T13:51:09.753-08:00Yes I think another poster has said this, but real...Yes I think another poster has said this, but really you know feminists make rather dubious claims about discrimination against women in STEM sciences - and all of a sudden they're asking for more grants specifically for women, positive discrimination encouragement for women in science etcetc<br /><br />At some stage people are going to wake up to the fact that this all entails discrimination against men - and if you think gender-based discrimination is wrong then it all seems rather hypocritical.<br /><br />There is good evidence to suggest that women quite simply make different career choices from men. If we want equality of opportunity then I'm with you 100%, but if my sons grow up and don't get a job because they are male because of dubious gender arguments from politicians, then I'd be slightly less happy<br /><br />Hope you understand. Good luck (and don't spend it all at once:))Mugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13080751523012610208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4911759560267725847.post-67043859142922650322014-11-23T20:39:22.246-08:002014-11-23T20:39:22.246-08:00Hi Elly,
First of all I agree with 'pancakewi...Hi Elly,<br /><br />First of all I agree with 'pancakewizard' in that this is your business and you don't need to donate anything to STEM as I am sure they can manage without your generosity. If you want to donate on a personal level that's up to you, but don't donate just to appease sour antagonists! <br />Re eBay, you could put the shirts on at a high 'Buy It Now' price at the same time as holding an auction. Bear in mind that eBay charge you extra for a 'reserve' price, but you can specify the starting bid without penalty.<br />Finally and most importantly, you are not a 'nobody', you are a very individual and charming person who has bought joy, colour and fun to an extremely large proportion of the world who really appreciate it, but there are bound to be a few who don't like that. Anybody who succeeds will always have more than their fair share of critics.<br />Carry on what you are doing and if I can help with pictures just ask. You are welcome.

I am thrilled this has worked out to be a positive thing for you & Matt. <br />I'm a home sewer, too. I'd be happy to help...cut out the pattern pices, maybe...my least favorite part of garment construction. I've taken enough haute coutre classes to be a fanatic about keeping the grain lines straight!!<br />Take care!

That said, I agree with the posters above that a female STEM scholarship. Why exclude the men? Women are being recruited and being given generous scholarships to enter the programs.

Don't worry there are going to be affordable ones early in the new year once the fabric manufacturer has reprinted the fabric and I have sorted a company to help produce the shirts. This IS going to happen I promise! I have a Facebook page set up now (Elly Prizeman Ltd - #shirtstorm) so like the page and updates on sales will be given as soon as I have it sorted. Trying to move as quickly as possible and hoping everyone doesn't get bored before that! :-) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12482672368581913246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4911759560267725847.post-84576410775925122472014-11-21T12:50:33.710-08:002014-11-21T12:50:33.710-08:00Sounds good, you should go ahead and do that. But ...Sounds good, you should go ahead and do that. But I think you could also team up with a company that makes custom shirts and sells them globally at an affordable price. They won't be the exact replicas, and they don't have to be. It's enough for them to look a lot like Matt's shirt.<br /><br />This would mean far more people would be able to buy it, which would have two consequences - you'd collect far more money for your donation and there would be far more people wearing the shirts in support of Matt.<br /><br />I for one would love to have that shirt, but can't afford to outbid the ten or so most determined and wealthy people on the internet. But if I could buy an affordable version from the original source, at a good price and in support of a good cause, I'd do it in a heartbeat.Acheronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05197844459881615846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4911759560267725847.post-85547494346445358272014-11-20T19:59:36.924-08:002014-11-20T19:59:36.924-08:00Elly,

This is true even in fields where men are underrepresented, like medicine. This, even though 3 women earn degrees for every 2 earned by men. <br /><br />If women want to pursue STEM, they are already being bombarded with scholarships. It is the only remaining academic area that women are not dominating. <br /><br />I recommend choosing something else.
