London, UK – An incident at the recent Wingfest in London has sparked widespread outrage and calls for boycotts after a vendor, Ginger Wings, was observed selling merchandise perceived as trivializing sexual abuse. Attendees reported seeing stickers featuring a "Freak Off Baby Oil" design, which many found deeply offensive. The controversy gained traction through social media, with one video highlighting the problematic merchandise. The video's creator stated, "I don’t find abuse funny. The court documents are available for you to read what women were forced to do. There are so many things I could write about this and the fact it was approved is disgusting." Public reaction has been swift and strong. Numerous comments condemned Ginger Wings, with one user asserting, "I do not find the victimisation of black and brown women funny nor do I think it’s appropriate to use it as an opportunity to create MERCH." Another comment highlighted, "it's the dehumanisation of (predominantly) black women's pain and suffering." Many attendees expressed disappointment that Wingfest allowed such a vendor to operate, with some vowing to boycott future events. The incident has raised questions about event organizers' vetting processes and corporate responsibility regarding sensitive topics.
