To cringe when middle class women swear

On Mumsnet at least they use embarrassing words like 'cockwomble' and think it's edgy. Only working and upper class people sound right swearing.

I cringed at the fucking thread title.

Are you not getting enough attention? Grin

Anyone who identifies themselves as middle class is cringeworthy fullstop.

I love a good fake swear word!! I also like saying fuck 🤷🏻‍♀️ or the mumsnet crime of censoring myself with asterisks 😂

I think everyone sounds a bit silly swearing, regardless of social standing, unless something shocking or scary has happened.

Aw, hope you feel better soon. Try getting out more.

Fuck that.

How do you know what ‘class’ posters are? What am I for example.

Well fuck.
