No,someone else beat you to the journalist! and bumping of gums

EnjoyResponsibly · 05/02/2012 10:10

I didn't actually say the OP is a journalist.

I said journalists that write such articles.

scottishmummy · 05/02/2012 10:07

Ignore the harrumphers,suspecting journalists of wickedly ensnaring mn posters. Journalist hunting is the new troll hunting

lorcana · 05/02/2012 10:06

Or even PROMISE !!

Would it be feasible for a single SAHM to betray an entire sex? That would be a powerful person indeed.

OP your question is ridiculous. Choosing to stay at home to bring up your children cannot conceivably be an action that betrays your sex.

Journalists that write such articles betray their sex.

Of when not often

God this reminds me often we tried to have an all girl debating society at school it descended into bitchiness and bullying and iirc lasted 7 weeks or so before it was dissolved while the boys merrily kept theirs. Nothing really changes looking at this

scottishmummy · 05/02/2012 09:38

Mn discursive medium of course it's assumptive.that's the point
"friends" as in folk you've met in rl,exchanged view.a degree of corroboration that things are generally as they state? Or the assumption that you're friends because you concur online?

your post suggests meeting so I'm supposing former rather than latter

Honeydragon · 05/02/2012 09:10

I'm confused, if it's words on a screen how can you be assumptive?

And I have friends on here, they look like humans as fars as I can tell with the naked eye.

I'm saying good night, too. Smile

LineRunner · 05/02/2012 03:01

extra Smile

LineRunner · 05/02/2012 03:01

I didn't say I was 'pointedly ignoring the thread'. KateMiddleton said goodnight, a while back. I said 'Night' to her with smiley face.

Is it handcuffs next?

Smile Smile

scottishmummy · 05/02/2012 02:55

Is smiley face the new tumbleweed
Thought you were pointedly ignoring thread

LineRunner · 05/02/2012 02:54

I'm all out of synch.

LineRunner · 05/02/2012 02:54

And that is another one opinion. Grin

Tortington · 05/02/2012 02:53

no. that is how you make me feel

LineRunner · 05/02/2012 02:53

Well that is just one opinion.

MitchieInge · 05/02/2012 02:53

it's ALL in the name isn't it? Scottish people ARE quite fighty, it's their thing.

I'm pointless and a bit irritating, like a pruritic minge. Ummm not exactly sure about the lesbian triumvirate in custard though, need a smoke and a think

scottishmummy · 05/02/2012 02:51

You are personalising the impersonal
maybe it's affected your ability to do online blah
You're not amongst pals, mean is a widdle bit school term for someone else's words on. A screen

Tortington · 05/02/2012 02:47

meanness for meanness sake. i'm weary of it and the rubbish thing is, that i dont want to read some of the fabulous points you make becuase even if someone agrees with you, you make it your mission to somehow make them feel small.

well that's rubbish. it doesn't matter how clever you are or how wordsmithy. its just pants. scottishmummy.

scottishmummy · 05/02/2012 02:41

Lol,pretending to ignore
By actually posting
How deliciously ironic

Numbered points
And against mn rules
