THE FUTURE IS FEMALE T-shirts were originally designed in the early 1970s for Labyris Books, the first women’s bookstore in New York City. Otherwild discovered them through @h_e_r_s_t_o_r_y's Instagram account. Open Sesame donates 20% of the proceeds from these shirts and onesies (and Otherwild's THE FUTURE IS FEMALE enamel pins) to SHORE Centre, formerly known as Planned Parenthood Waterloo Region.

Otherwild, which is based in L.A., explains that the slogan THE FUTURE IS FEMALE "has lasted through the decades and is reemerging as an empowering statement for all, as female-identified bodies and rights remain under attack. Inflexibile and compulsory sexual and gender binaries are used to oppress and deny people their humanity and agency. Otherwild believes in an inclusive, expanded and fluid notion of gender expression, identities and feminisms. We support liberation, embrace our trans sisters, and call for the end of patriarchal ideology, domination, oppression and violence. We believe that 'The Future is Female' is the past, the present and the future, and is language that resonates." Rock on!
