Trans identified Mumsnet member AidaP is scraping Mumsnet

Hi Mumsnet, though you should know that a trans identified man - who often posts on Mumsnet as @aidap - is scraping the feminimism board, in order to create some sort of grading system.

It's basically electronic stalking.

What is this?

Oh yes, I have downloaded most of mumsnet and we will be doing embeddings of the content to try to understand how does the rot and hate builds and spreads.

I never had so much hate and delusion on my hard drive before 😅

He's no looker that one and there isn't enough Max Factor in the world to change that.

This site is full of hate for trans people. I've not seen the level of hate I see here anywhere else. The amount of comments I've seen saying that trans people are doing it as some sort of sexual fetish or as a way to perv on and abuse women is disgusting. That kind of stereotyping of any other minority group would be quickly shut down.
I won't be replying to any comments. I've learned from experience that any support for the trans community on the site leads to a pile on from people who are not interested in actual debate, they are too fixed in their views. Some with concerns they feel strongly about due to fear enticed by others. Some who are nothing but nasty bullies who have found a place where they can put down a whole community and not only get away with it, but be supported with it.

💯

What is the obsession with MN anyway? I mean, am all for having a hobby but this is an unhealthy obsession no?

Women talking without supervision, innit. And saying 'no' to men. It makes a LOT of men very angry, for some reason.

Helleofabore · 30/04/2026 10:12

"It's funny how they say they want to be women, in fact, insist they are women, but revert to the worst, shitty behavioural traits of men in the end."

yep.

And then those traits are supported by people who try to shame and censure women discussing those traits.

Nothing quite like a person censuring how women discuss abusive men to give support to those abusive men. And often it is censuring and shaming just because they personally don't like how women discuss the topic.

Go touch some grass, Aida, and find a hobby that doesn't involve stalking women on the internet.

It’s because he wants to be us. He’s jealous and so is lashing out at us simply because we are the one thing he can never be.

Yet more, it's so sinister:

First go at the labeler, something that will consume many hours of my life, but we need a proper golden set of data to then grade the entire mumsnet worth with

Getting my snark out on bsky to stay fair during the process, wild that I got more scientific integrity here than transphobes altogether 😅

https://bsky.app/profile/aidap.bsky.social/post/3mkld4wx42224

If he had any sense of scientific integrity, he wouldn't attempt to analyse a dataset that he has tainted by contributing to it himself.

This isn't about science. It's about power, control, and stalking disobedient women.

Spotted an omission: It seems to be practically the law that at least half of middle-aged AGPs work in IT and have a fetish of themselves as a female anime character or that woman who was in Hackers.

haXXor · 29/04/2026 22:12

It looks like Aida calls himself "Pucie" off-line. Perhaps that's what the P stands for. 😂 at using Bash and Python on Windows. Why not just install Linux and get access to the full GPU compute libraries?

Zero surprise that Aida knows how to program. It seems to be practically the law that at least half of middle-aged AGPs have a fetish of themselves as a female anime character or that woman who was in Hackers.

The most blatant example is probably Andrew Burns/Obi Wan Kenobi/Mr Mighty Almighty/Mitzababy/Tiffany Scott, late of this parish. Even his own brother said that he was 'at it'. He was only refused access to the women's prison estate because of the uproar surrounding the Isla Bryson case.

Then there's Lennon/Katie Dolatowski who used his claimed identity to access female children.

Yep, plenty of examples!

The argument that over a period of a year (or possibly more) FWR, which usually has at least a couple of dozen active threads EVERY DAY, had TWO objectionable threads that were deleted, and that this proves that everyone active on FWR is hate-filled if not outright evil make precisely no sense at all.

Fifty five and a half thousand threads presently visible, versus two deleted threads, equals unmitigated and undiluted transphobia?

Not in my universe.

Granted, I've only read bits and bobs of a handful of trans threads regarding trans.
I've not witnessed much transphobia. I have seen plenty of women explaining and thoughtfully explaining their stance and wanting female only spaces. This isn't transphobia.

I argued the point and reported posts. I got a load of abuse from some (not all) regulars whose position was ‘if there weren’t trans people, we wouldn’t have to do this’.

anyway, the consensus seems to be that these threads never existed, or if they did, they don’t count. So there you go

This is another misrepresentation of probably what happened and what is happening on this thread.

people are not denying that there might have been a thread about the topic you have said. They are pushing back on your representation of what happened on the thread. It may not even have been deleted for the reason that some people might wish to assert it was deleted for. If the woman entered the thread, she may have asked for it to be deleted because it might have contained personal information that amounted to doxing.

People may also be doubting the veracity of your claims considering how you have described behaviour of others and of situations that don’t appear creditable and are a reasonable representation of what happened and what was said.

For instance, you claim that the position of regular posters was “position was ‘if there weren’t trans people, we wouldn’t have to do this’.”. I have significant doubts that this is a true representation of the position.

Firstly, you have made another negative generalisation that would not fit the opinion of many regular posters. They would not make a generalisation that included female people running in the correct sex class for the competition. They would have stated that it was MALE people competing in female sports categories that had created a situation where people don’t fully trust that a person winning female sports events are female athletes. And sports organisations have allowed this situation to happen.

Secondly, it is a misrepresentation because it is not because a group of people exist. It is because a group of male people have chosen to be disrespectful towards female people and enter sports created to provide female people with fair competition. These male people have done this despite it being widely understood and conclusive that there is no way to remove male physical advantage.

The argument isn’t ’if there weren’t trans people…’. There’s no issue with trans people (at least, not here). The issue is if people didn’t try and use the single sex spaces of the wrong sex.

Trans people have every right to get on with life, just as everyone else does.
But following the law.

And I’ll campaign to make sure the law reflects preserving single sex spaces- women’s prisons, sport etc.

No, but if it’s horrible and nasty that you're whinging about it now, why didn’t you do something at the time?

I think it's bystander syndrome.

I’m a bit worried about this data scraping milarkey. I’m not important to anyone, I’m not a ‘name’, but I’ve failed to consistently name change. I have tried to separate out my names for different threads, but have the attention span of a gnat. I’d be very easy to identify, I suspect.

It is remarkable that some posters will immediately take the position of dismissing women pointing out a man’s abusive behaviour if those women have been demonised enough by being accused of being hateful.

I think some people will immediately take the position of dismissing women.

It’s remarkable how careful they are to avoid damaging the reputation of a man, at the cost of declaring women to be either liars or merely incapable of accuracy- not credible witnesses.

It’s remarkable to see in action.

Indeed. And the mummies wouldn't validate him. So now he's having a trantrum.
