If you avoid the feminist section then at least read this article

Jumping up and down?
It literally takes 2 clicks.

You didn’t answer my question. Do you report all covid threads because they should be in the Coronavirus topic?

Thanks mumsnet hq, or perhaps that should be birthingandadoptiveandstepparents.net??[/quote]
Oh give over lol
It's just like other boards in that they move things to the relevant board.
It's still Mumsnet too, why should it be birthingandadoptiveandstepparents.net? Nobody's advocated for that as far as I know, everyone's still happy with it being called Mumsnet I presume.
I mean it started out being called that all those years ago, it's what everyone knows it as.

@Pumperthepumper The issue with recording male crimes as being committed by females - and then putting those males in women’s prisons - is a great example of why we are concerned.

No laws have been passed in Parliament to allow this to happen. In fact, the Equality Act allows single sex prisons, including the exclusion of transsexuals with a GRC.

However, the reality is that males are treated as females as Stonewall have advised that this needs to happen to ‘Be Kind’ and ‘Be Inclusive’. And anyone who objects is a bigot as TWAW in all circumstances.

This has all happened by stealth without any publicity or debate in Parliament. Anyone who raised concerns within an organisation was vilified as a bigot.

And then we find ourselves with rapists in women’s prisons because people in power felt that they had to ‘Be Kind’.

Insisting, stating that people need to know what we talk about on FWR strikes me as being a little like all the things we're fighting against. Haven't RTFT, I value this board but there are others who may not, they are entitled to express their views

What all employees????? Surely not, only one sex class of employee can or will get pregnant.

Policy includes adoption leave. Any sex can adopt. Agree this whole thread should be in FWR.

This is a great way to prove what was said in reply; you try and talk about this anywhere else on MN and the thread just gets dumped here on the 'naughty step', so the conversations on this topic aren't spread evenly across the boards.

People post on AIBU all the time with no actual AIBU, openly say they're just posting there for traffic, and no one bats an eyelid. A feminist posts ''off topic'' and people complain until it gets moved.

The article is about mothers, on a site called Mumsnet, so not sure why it has to be here on FWR. It would fit in just as much on AIBU or Chat, imo 🤷‍♀️

That doesn’t stop covid threads being posted on AIBU every single fucking day.

No, but they do usually get moved though.
Just like this one has.

I don’t want to read threads about covid, so I don’t go on the coronavirus board.

That doesn’t stop covid threads being posted on AIBU every single fucking day. Do you also jump up and down and insist they be relocated to their rightful place?

I suppose in that context I see your point but how about..

“Anyone seen Ben?”
“No, I haven’t heard from them in days.”

That’s plural. Or...

“Have you heard the news about Sally?”
“No, what have they been up to now?”

“What did they say?” - this one sounds like a split personality

Are people in AIBU unaware of the hide thread button that this needs to be moved then?

And yes agree, if this thread was ‘transphobic’ MN would delete it

What disturbs you about this debate?

Disturbs me? Nothing
Just saying can see why it's been moved.

I invoke Bunbury's, anyone fancy a cake.

I think it's around 850 Erikrie and non of them small. Whitehall are to give a statement next week I believe, so anyone saying they've never heard of this, are sure hearing it now

I chose to start it in a topic that has high traffic to bring it to the attention of women who don't frequent the FWR board
Yes, and several people basically said oh FFS, and it clearly wasn't wanted there - they told you as much and clearly people thought enough to get it moved.
Some even said they hide this board for a reason.
So why be like "well, I'm going to show you it anyway?"
Not everyone wants to read all the boards, sometimes you just come to MN for light relief.

I don't think this is a feminist issue, it's integral to the experience of being a mother. We should all be able to use normal language to describe our experience. I gave birth to my children. It was a sex specific experience.

Oh good, it's been moved.
Why are people bothered that it's been moved?
It's only like when Coronavirus for example starts seeping out onto the boards - not everyone wants it, they'd go over to the Coronavirus forum if they did.
That's why there's specialised boards so that people who are interested will go to them.
Not piss off people just trying to read AIBU or Chat or whatever.

Why the bloody hell has this been moved??

Thanks mumsnet!

*Do you move every thread in AIBU to its appropriate topic? Or just the ones related to feminist issues?

I agree. There’s no rule that everyone has to read this thread just because it’s in aibu. People can scroll past.
