Deborah Orr is a feminist and the whole Guardian article is tongue in cheek, read the whole thing.

Pipbin · 21/08/2015 16:58

Never read the bottom half of the internet.
You would hope the people who comment on The Guardian have got a little more taste, but no.

Dear god, has anyone seen the comment from Elinore in that post? ODFOD

And the author - "Sure, she’s so anti-male that she doesn’t even use her real name, Justine Katz, like a proper married lady" is she being ironic. I can't tell

Well I'm on the list and my address was listed several times in my inbox because of the christmas card swap thread. I don't care about being 'outed' because I don't think I've ever said anything on here that I wouldn't say IRL. But should be worried about 'Jeffrey' doxing random MNers? I have a son with an anxiety disorder, and another with autism and sensory issues. If trolls got hold of our address they could cause a lot of upset.

How long before "penis beaker" starts trending again ?

Maybe I will finally find the original Pom Bears/Naice Ham threads ...

Pranmasghost · 21/08/2015 16:51

Thanks Zing I backed away pretty quickly but I hope my new name/password aren't nobbled now. We were at the hospital so I used his tablet but it was weird I don't think much happened.

bittapitta · 21/08/2015 16:49

Lweli sorry I've wilfully misconstrued that to mean you suppose Jeffrey is Katie Hopkins. Now that would be mind blowing.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 21/08/2015 16:48

did you try Mumsnet Desktop Site through Google?

if it doesn't have the "s" only "http" probably best to avoid

N00bs?! I used to be 1337! 0010 Blush

Lweji · 21/08/2015 16:47

There are plenty of people out there that the general public just loathes.

Katie Hopkins perhaps

Well maybe he's someone nobody likes. Ahem

You never know steph, we might yet find out which poster was missing during the time KH was in the BB house....

Pranmasghost · 21/08/2015 16:46

I'm a bit anxious. I tried to log in via Google on my husband's android tablet. It wouldnt take my password at first then when it did there was a http// without the s and a list of options in fine type down the left side of the page. I really dont want another password change but do think they are still infiltrating?

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 21/08/2015 16:45

among their followers.

All none of them...

Simurgh · 21/08/2015 16:44

It's a game for them StephanieBeacham that's all. A game. It doesn't matter who or what the victim is if it gives them enough 'glory' among their followers.

00100001 · 21/08/2015 16:42

you're all such n00bs Grin

StephanieBeacham · 21/08/2015 16:41

All this for some clean underpants. I ask you.

Thanks 0010 - as you have deduced I'm out of touch since having kids! /nostalgic

ScrambledSmegs · 21/08/2015 16:37

Me too Don't. If the poor lad is that desperately in need of keks I'm sure we could have had a whip-round and got him a few, there'd have been no need for all this palaver.
