Things you've noticed that are frowned upon on mums net

Having kids under 30.

It's good to have differences of opinion and to debate. I've learnt a lot through MN. Particularly when by exH left me and was still trying to control me and I needed to realise I needed to change my communication to protect myself.

Holidays with loads of Brits Abroad types goes down well on mumsnet - especially if there’s loads of Phoenix Nights style evening entertainment!!

Sitting next to Brian Potter for your Benidorm cabaret??

BRING IT ON !!!

Putting up with a husband who has any faults at all, however minor

Being comfortable with your husband seeing his female friends

Revealing what your husband's interests are

Not having sex very often, even if both partners are perfectly content with that

Not being massively overprotective with your children

Not driving your children everywhere

Not driving at all, especially if it's by choice

Being happy to call a trans person by their chosen name and pronouns

Being happy to accommodate vegetarian and vegan friends' preferences, and being happy to eat vegetarian and vegan yourself if you're not actually one of those things

Giving your baby the same name as any other child in your extended family or circle of friends

The majority of posting mumsnetters are not very nice people.

I'd like to think a lot of MN users live by my mantra of swiftly moving on if I have nothing constructive to add.

So many posting MNetters see a pile on and join in. So sad that they've nothing better to do with their lives.

Not having a ‘BIG’ salad - just a normal sized salad here

Not making a chicken last for a week and feed 50 people then making a 100 years worth of stock with the carcass.

Loving dogs and taking them for walks where there may be other humans of any size or age

Liking rubber ham

Answering the door / phone etc to see who is there

Not liking London

Using weight loss jabs to take control of your life long obesity rather than just eating BIG salads and moving more (because the 59 years I did that for totally worked)

Using weight loss jabs at all and not just sitting here waiting for a stroke/ heart failure to kill me - but not to worry because the side effects will get me anyway

I think one thing we can derive from this thread, is that the majority of Mumsnetters are actually not very nice people….

Is that frowned upon? I haven't seen that. I wouldn’t frown upon it, I just wish it applied to me! 😭

And never say that you’ve known a lot of nice, loving, non abusive men through life. 🙄🙄

On MN, it’s compulsory for all men being thought of as bastards.🤷‍♀️

MN have a pretty low opinion of tradespeople, and bodily functions in general - the 2 combined is a disaster that means your whole renovation/extension is ruined

Thou shalt not sail through menopause.

Thou shalt not, on pain of death, eschew HRT.

Managing the perimenopause and menopause without too many complaints.

The cardinal sin of having lip filler.

You can almost hear the stampede trying to type the “duck lips” post first.

Forward facing car seats for any child under 7.

True - Georgian cottage or massive Victorian townhouse.

But if you hear or make any noise you will have to up and buy a detached that very day, and then you can Never Go Back.

Actually grasping that ‘raising children’ includes paying for them as a fundamental parental responsibility.

Husbands actually wanting to have intimacy/sex with their wives.

Liking your husband.

Being happy and enjoying your life.

Living in a terraced house

That's apparently fine as long as it's a period property.
New builds
Being fat
Wearing shoes indoors - wearing slippers or walking round in bare feet does not mean you shouldn't clean your carpets regularly. Urgh.
Boarding schools
En suites - always cited as 'being in the corner of the bedroom'. It doesn't occur to posters that they're often separate rooms the same size as the bedroom

Agree it's right up there with women being called "a nag" in my opinion.

Giving your children occasional chocolate, mcdonalds or caffeine.

Tradespeople using the toilet apparently they all have germs! ☹️

Formula feeding. In the magical world of mumsnet everyone can and therefore should breastfeed. Nobody has insufficient supply. Nobody has mental health difficulties or physical health issues that are impacted by lack of sleep. Nobody pays any mind to fathers bonding with their babies, his job is just to support mum while she cares for baby solo. It's so backwards compared to reality.

Or even mentioning the F word. ‘Big’ is allowed, though.

Decorating your house for Autumn.
TVs in bedrooms.
Not having bookshelves ‘groaning’ under the weight of books.
Sending your children to private school.
Giving your children more than a satsuma and a wooden toy for Xmas.
Giving your children anything more than one small egg for Easter.
Having a second home.
Landlords.
Celebrations for adults, no joy allowed!
Dogs in cafes.
Wind chimes.
Still mothering your children when they’re over 18.
Gaming.
Kids wearing sportswear for anything other than sport.
