Nasty’s back, in honor of Dr. Jill Biden! For womxn with a degree, unafraid to be ‘nasty”. Go getters, glass-ceiling breakers, forging your own path.
We created these mugs back when The Greatest Loser called Hillary Clinton a “nasty woman” during one of the 2016 debates. Now that women’s credentials are back in the news with that ridiculous WSJ op-ed (not linking to it), we brought the Nasty Woman, PhD mugs back. You can get a Travel Cup version too!
You can customize with MA, MFA, JD, MD… whatever you want. They are made by woman-owned progressive business, Moonstone Studios and Design.
The perfect item for womxn who know that they are“valuable and powerful and deserving of every chance and opportunity in the world to pursue and achieve their dreams” ~ original nasty woman, Hillary Rodham Clinton, JD.
Mugs are $20 plus shipping. $3 of every purchase goes to the Biden/Harris campaign Stacey Abram’s Georgia GOTV organization!
Why “Nasty Woman”? Because the monster in the White House hurls that epithet at every smart, talented, fearless woman who challenges him. We first created this mug back in 2016 the day after that infamous debate with Hillary Clinton, reclaiming the phrase as a term of pride, resistance, and rage.
Image faces front to make a statement during ALL your Zoom meetings. And this year you can order all the degrees we nasty women go out and get! EdD, JD, MA, MFA, RN…. we have them all.
AND very shortly we’ll have water bottles and masks too. Watch this space!

We are delighted to partner with Susan Niemann of The Moonstone Studio in this project! She saw our FB query and immediately volunteered her services. She’s been a joy to work with – go buy Susan’s stuff! [yes, that’s a snide reference to the grifters in the White House].
But unlike those racists, Susan stands in solidarity with Black Lives Matter and sees The Moonstone as a platform for speaking out against racism, misogyny, homophobia, and transphobia. Her mission is to amplify marginalized voices, disrupt patriarchy, and challenge white silence. She fell in love at first sight with the Nasty Women, PhD mug and is proud to partner with The Professor is In to celebrate nasty women and their academic accomplishments
The Moonstone Studio is a family business in Gainesville, Florida. As Monster Press, we’ve printed shirts, hats, and mugs for our community since 1993, and over the past year have expanded and rebranded to add an online storefront for nationwide availability. Susan Niemann is the screen printing, mug pressing, homeschooling, kayak paddling, protest marching, Gator chomping mama/owner/creative director behind it all.
