Fadil Nadia

FC Poppesnor

FC Poppesnor (the name) derives from (FC) 'feminist café' and (Poppesnor - a very rare, Dutch word) 'investigating spirit'. In Dutch, 'pop' means 'doll' and 'snor' means 'moustache', both of which you will find in our mascotte. Since dolls are usually associated with women and girls and moustaches with men, our mascotte consists of feminine ánd masculine traits combined. In this way we playfully question stereotypical notions of gender. Why should a doll not have a moustache?
