Hi as all the threads are on one topic I have taken to reading threads from the beginning of this forum and the diversity in topics is really heartening and interesting to read does anyone else read them.

Bespin wants to talk about what women should be talking about. Bespin wants to tell women to stop talking about what they want to talk about.

TV, not talking about the same shows, politics, likewise. Goodness, even food has moved on.

I think the most pressing issue needs to be dealt with first. If you look at any category they are not talking about the same topics as they were several years ago, but the most pressing and urgent. What do you want to talk about Bespin?

yes Terfmore. I used to say to myself that the way I lived my life, as the higher earner, having children, holding down a responsible job, made me inherently a feminist and that was enough.

I realise I was sleep walking.

Sounds interesting, what topics were being discussed? If the issues are still relevant, then perhaps you could start a thread about them? Smile

Women talk about what they want to talk about. This forum reflects that rather than imposes that. So sorry.

This is an important issue but it goes hand in hand with so much other shit that has crept in while I was asleep/ earning money to bring up my children.

This section of Mumsnet is called Feminism and women's rights so that is the topic.
If you want to talk about something else you may want to go to a different section.

Please share. It sounds very interesting.

Bespin · 20/04/2018 23:42

So you don't read them then thanks for your reply. I might reply to dome old ones and bring them forwards as they interstate me no need for new ones

They are on one topic because it's topical and VERY important. The other topics can't really be articulated, measured or fought politically if we lose this one. I'm unapologetic. You post a new thread if you think we should be talking about something else. If we agree we will join in.
