THE MANBROIDERY MANIFESTO

1. MANBROIDERY IS A MOVEMENT DESIGNED TO BRING MEN WHO CREATE FIBER ART OF ALL KINDS TO THE FOREFRONT. NO LONGER SHALL WEAVING, KNITTING, EMBROIDERY, CROSS STITCH ETC. BE EXCLUSIVELY KNOWN AS WOMEN'S WORK. 2.MANBROIDERY IS A TOOL THAT CAN BE USED BY MEN TO EMPOWER THEMSELVES AND THEIR CRAFT SO THAT THEY CAN FEEL CONFIDENT SHOWING THEIR WORK WITH PRIDE. NO SHAME. 3. MANBROIDERY IS NOT AN ANTI-WOMAN ART MOVEMENT. IT IS A PRO-MAN ART MOVEMENT. WE ARE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HAVE WOMEN AS MEMBERS, WE JUST FEEL THAT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ARENAS FOR WOMEN TO SHOWCASE THEIR WORK. AS FAR AS WE KNOW, THIS IS THE ONLY ARENA EXCLUSIVELY SHOWCASING THE FIBER ARE CREATED BY MEN. 4. THIS IS NOT SEXIST, THIS IS EQUAL TIME. 5... MORE TO COME
