Trams Rights

Fellow folks at the interest-intersection of “public transport” and “queer activism” (I know you’re out there!): I had an idea for a t-shirt.

T-shirt design: a sign in the typographic and graphical style of British road signs, showing the words 'Trams rights at all times' on a background in the blue/pink/white of the trans pride flag, with an outline of a tram whose pantograph is reshaped to resemble the trio of the masculine, feminine, and combined symbols used as a trans symbol.

Do I print it? Or give up on graphic design and go back to backend programming where I belong?

    This is great. You could broaden the range with some others:
    – BI-cycle day of visibility
    – Think Dyke Think Dyker
    – PolyamourBUS (yes, it’s clumsy but multiple people can be together on the bus, right?)
    -No Entry (I’m asexual)
    – And the possibly more commercially viable HeteroLink trams in Manchester

      First thing’s first: great to hear from you, Adam! Hope you’re doing well! Drop me a catch-up email or WhatsApp sometime!

      Secondly: I love several of those. Not quite all, but enough that we should go into business making a range of gender and sexuality-affirming t-shirts together. I’m only half joking.

        With thanks to Strokey Adam for the idea.

        A sign in the style of British road signs showing a bicycle lane on the left of the carriageway by using a pictographic bicycle to the left of a white line, except the background colour of the lane is the pink-purple-blue of the Bisexual Pride flag, and the text underneath contains an extra space so that it reads 'Bi cycle lane'.
