Well MNHQ we have the start of the exodus. Posters leaving due to these new guidelines that throw women under the bus.

A poster has deleted their account today due to the upset and stress of getting a strike for saying something that is 100% true. We know it's true because TRA's posted it on Twitter themselves, yet we post it and it's kick off time at HQ

It's a fucking disgrace HQ WOMEN are your target audience yet you don't give a fucking shiny shit about us. Not a fucking shit and it stinks.

More and more women will leave and you will be left with nothing more than people who present as opposite to their birth sex sitting posting about heels, make-up, clothes and fucking knitting.

Good luck with that one.

Marmite tastes like the rag that wiped Beelzebubs arse after curry night.

Tasty!

And thank you to serious posters like lastempress who are valiantly attempting to keep the thread on topic.

UpstartCrow Tis the devil's earwax!

You can take our pronouns! You can take our accurate biological language! You can send us round the twist with your doublespeak BUT YOU WILL NOT TAKE OUR MARMITE!!

Whoever thought of marmite cashews was a genius.

Hum. I don't have any, nor crisps. I do have marmite and Dr Karg crispbreads, maybe that would sort of work for a savoury crunch.

Must be the heat making us crave salt tonight.

Hi, I started lurking a while ago, after having been silently Gc for years. I’m so sorry this organisational resource has been lost- as has already been pointed out, just in time for the consultation, what a coincidence. I’d really like to join the other place- and do more than read- could someone let me have details? I’d be really grateful. Appreciate I will need to be vetted somehow, which is sad in itself. An open forum is the best for opening minds- which is why it had to go.

I will die on this hill.

Skips are not fit to lick the powdery residue at the bottom of a tube of Prawn Cocktail Pringles imao...

And proud of it!

LangCleg is an MRA (Marmite Rights Activist)

And so the great Marmite-Skips schism of 2018 began...

HOW DID IT COME TO THIS 😓

MARMITE CASHEWS!

Food of the gods.

(Sorry!)

Ofew · 25/06/2018 22:42

Eugghh while I was waffling on Skips, of all things, have been brought into the discussion. Revolting little bits of polystyrene mimicking prawn flavour.

I just wanted to add my words of support (and sadness). I am a fairly recent recruit to FWR, and have mostly lurked, only posted a few times. I've always been a feminist but coming here (from other MN places related to my kids - education, special needs etc etc) has reinvigorated my feminism. I've learnt so much about contemporary feminism from the women here (having not really read much feminism since my uni days, ahem, 20+ years ago).

So having so recently found my tribe here, I'll be really sad to see it diminished.

I have been given the details for the other place but haven't heard back. Hopefully I meet the vetting :-)

(And I love marmite (on hot toast with lots of butter) but marmite crisps and, worse, marmite cashews, are both abominations.

boatyardblues · 25/06/2018 22:37

Scampi Fries smell so bad, taste so good.

LangCleg · 25/06/2018 22:37

We will stay or go as we see fit.

Bewilder - have I ever told you how much I love you?

(Enough to tell you that I love you and almost enough to share my Twiglets with you.)

UpstartCrow · 25/06/2018 22:36

Its Scampi Fries or nothing in the Crow household.

boatyardblues · 25/06/2018 22:36

Let’s face it, NOTHING is like it used to be - whether its MN or crisps.

If anyone has any prawn cocktail Skips, they better just hand them over now.

Am a marmite crisp loving bitch but are the marmite crisps my bitches on Tuesdays

God damn you! Now I want Marmite crisps and the local shop is closed. Angry

HumphreyCobblers · 25/06/2018 22:20

I haven't really posted much at all lately, it has really put me off. I am so grateful to the women who continue to post here though.

I was on the first Spartacus thread. I never thought it would come to this Sad. MN has meant so much to me in so many different ways.
