Never even heard of it until today, and feeling the STW hate towards it.

Just wondered what mumsnet has done that is so bad.

Its full of women and women scare the average STWer

Was going to ask same thing

im aware of it, not enough to hate it tho

snakes with tits 😉

Dunno, never been there. When ever they crop up in the media they do seem to have got awfully reactionary and not a little ignorant about the original issue.

‘cos it’s even more of a work-time gravity pit than STW.
and the Relationships page is so fascinating you’ll never leave

<heads off to mumsnet to ask why they hate STW>

Do they?

EDIT I’ve just seen the other post and voted!!

Because people who start sentences with the words “as a parent I think/believe” are worse than Hitler.

I read a piece not so long ago, i think in the Sunday Times, regarding its Forum bullying culture.

It’s basically like STW, but mostly women! 😛

so lots of post about losing weight, relationships, legal advice, DIY going tubeless and tyres…

I suppose I should make some of comment about lubing your axle or something like that too

I didn’t realise people actually hate them, I thought they just found it mildly amusing to troll them

bullying culture!, have you seen the times talkback, its like this place only more rightwing

Mumsnet thread goes like this….

Title: I’m worried that my Husband is going to leave me.

post #1 Whilst going shopping in Stockport the other day I caught my DH looking at this girl at the bus stop.

We got onto the bus and sat down, it was crowded and the girl was now standing near us. MY DH stood up and let the pretty girl have his seat. She fluttered her eyelids at him and said thanks.

When we got to our stop at Hattersley I asked the girl if I could get past. The girl said no worries, this is my stop too. I am now concerned that after what has happened today that my husband might see her agaain.

post #2 If your husband is acting like that I’d be careful, from small acorns oak trees grow.

post #3 Make him sleep on the sofa tonight, that’ll sort him.

post #4 That’s how it started with me, my ex gave up his seat to an elderly lady on the bus, and two years later ran off with a colleague who works in his canteen.

post #5 Mr Bobbit

post #6 I feel your pain

post #7 ^^^^^

…..some pages later

post #197 Maybe have a chat with him if you think there is a problem, doesn’t sound like it to me though.

post #198 ^^^^ WTF. !!! Looks like we’ve been infiltrated by a man again.

WTF is DH? Dastardly husband??

Shudders! It’s too scary to think of! 😯

I hate it because it’s full of people who consider themselves wise and superior by virtue of the fact that some poor idiot accidentally empregnated them at some point.

First thing that popped into my head was downhill.

That’s a bit strong. 😯

That’s a bit strong.

As a parent I think it isn’t.

😆

Seriously, you’ve got to love a forum that has a sub-section entitled, “Am I being unreasonable?”

And if Mumsnet scares you, I really, really recommend you stay away from any wedding/bridal forums.

well there’s strange, i was halfway through reading the other mumsnet thread and it’s disappeared. Iz we being hacked?

wheres it to?

Anything with ‘net’ in the title should be viewed with suspicion IMO.Or am I getting paranoid and it’s only a ‘cyber’ version of chatting over the fence……I could be wrong…….and if so why don’t they ‘just’ chat over the fence? PErhaps they do have something to hide, are they plotting men’s downfall (or has that already happened and I’m only just catching up?)

AIBU is always good for a laugh.

yep, other thread is definitely vanished. Perhaps that Sophie from the competition is making like that fella from BikeRadar the other day and coming in “all special ops” on us. 😆

Does anyone have an idea why my thread was removed?
I hadn’t seen it in the last hour or so, did it get nasty?

2unfit2ride, if it was your thread i would have thought you could ask a moderator nicely about it. But not talk about it on here afterwards ‘cos that’s not cricket.

But it probably did get silly/nasty knowing this place on the last warm sunny afternoon of the year (well down here it is anyway) when we’re all stuck indoors.

But I like the ‘Sophie as hacker’ explanation best. 😀

yep, other thread is definitely vanished

eeek, I missed my chance to post on it 🙁

I get some info off it sometimes. maybe more than here.

In that comic why is H putting sunglasses ontop of his sunglasses?

stw should challenge them to an argument
