“Such a nasty woman.” “This pussy votes.” “Pussy - Grabbing the vote since 1920.” These were all sayings found on merchandise created by artist Erin Boyd, and sold at The Bureau of Historical Investigation during an art walk Friday, Nov. 4. Boyd, owner of Red Boots Design, has been inspired to turn the ugly discourse heard during the presidential election into empowering designs that are seen on T-shirts, bags and more. “I went home and I was looking at Twitter and watching ‘The Daily Show’ and I was like, ‘Well, maybe I should make another shirt,’” Boyd said. “This was the quote that stood out to me, ‘Such a nasty woman,’ so I just mocked it up and put it online and at seven o’clock in the morning The New York Times had messaged me and wanted to do an interview.” It’s become evident what people get out of Boyd’s artwork over the past two weeks, she said. “It was a mean thing that someone said, but now it’s so much more than that,” Boyd said. Donald Trump has been very misogynistic and anti-women, Boyd said. “He’s awful to women, and has been the entire time, so that’s why I’ve been making these shirts,” Boyd said. “I’m definitely making them from a pro-women themed political perspective for sure.” Marissa McGrath is a co-owner of the Bureau. Politics are personal, and as a business, those at the Bureau have always worn their politics on their sleeves, McGrath said. “We’re really interested in women’s history and progress for women, so it seemed like a fun celebration to bring Boyd in and be like ‘Have at it everyone. Come one, come all, label yourself as a ‘nasty woman’ and take ownership in a political climate that is repeatedly working to try to make you feel like you are not a full citizen,’” McGrath said.
