Why did you immediately jump to the assumption that that poster meant you?

Shut up women, stop reading naughty and mean things about men and the erosion of women’s rights.

Nobody's said that though, have they.

And stop reading those unapproved publications. Even if they do have good writers in the money section.

This board has always been infiltrated by TRAs posing as mumsnetters as some posters on here prove...
Oh, here we go. Anyone disagreeing is a TRA infiltrator 🙄
It's beyond pathetic.
I'm not trans, I'm not an activist, I'm not a man.
Just a woman who disagrees with you.
Sorry if that doesn't fit the narrative you've painted in your head.

@BodgerLovesMashedPotato I asked you twice upthread to provide an example of a media publication more invested & committed to the cause than the Daily Mail but you are conveniently ignoring my question! Can you provide the name of one please?

You mean the DM that fucking hates women, a right wing tory wank rag? No thanks.

Daily Mail appreciation thread in the supposed feminism section? Only on MN.

Ahh the great thing about being vegetarian is that I've been nazi-adjacent for so long I've got used to it! My delicate lady mind can cope with accusations of poor tone; lack of decorum; saying it wrong; speaking to the wrong people and reading the wrong news source.

This is gonna sound crazy but I read different articles from many publications (yay internet!) and perspectives and critically analyse to form my own viewpoint. I even allow myself to change my delicate lady mind if presented with enough evidence to counter what I thought I already knew!

I get that this might be a bit too gender non conforming for some though. Maybe I don't have a lady mind after all.

It's such naive, simplistic thinking.

"I don't like this newspaper so I'm going to either ignore or hate what they say, even when I know they are not only right, but are the only people saying it. I'm also going to tell everyone that they are wrong to agree with the right thing even though we all know they are not".

It's childish. "Daily Mail bad, Guardian good"...well guess what lads, the Guardian are selling your rights down the river and the DM are shouting about how fucking bad it is. You don't have to profess love for the DM, just don't be such a dick about them when you know they are right on this issue....

I've never said I don't read the Mail?
I do read the online version.
I just think people are deluded if they think coverage on this topic is coming from a we care about women angle.

They're probably more on the Matt Walsh side, but keep that in mind and I don't see a problem.

I still read the Guardian more than the DM. The only DM articles I read are the ones flagged to me or that I stumble across links to. Even doom scrolling in the wee small hours I won't visit the DM website. But I've no shame in reading and sharing the articles that I find that do interest me.

Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas. The Daily Mail is proudly mysoginistic and right wing, be careful where you are heading.

Except right now it appears to be just about the only mainstream paper that is highlighting this epic misogyny, and standing up for womens rights.

So maybe be careful where YOU are heading?

Maddy70 · 14/06/2023 11:32

Never will I praise the daily mail. What a rag

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 14/06/2023 11:30

Not literally make sure of course.
They can't literally enforce.
When I say make sure I mean by writing articles, and influencing public opinions etc.

What, you mean like every other newspaper does? shock horror.

Which certainly seems to be working on some posters who think it's because they care about women

We're so lucky to have thinkers like you who see the DM nefariousness and to set us silly wimmen right, then.

@BodgerLovesMashedPotato name one other media publication as invested & committed to raising public awareness to the threats posed against women as the DM. Name one.

More like making sure we all stick in our rigid gender boxes?

I'd be interested to know what sort of influence the DM wields that they 'make sure' of that. What's a 'rigid gender box,' BTW?

Nothing else they do seems to indicate that

Dunno badger, but if the end result is fewer sterilised children I’m all for it

Absolutely. Worldwide attention needs to be drawn to the castration, sterilisation, mutilisation & hormone therapy that children are being put through.

I do media sources such as the Daily Mail, Times, Telegraph, New York Post, Gript & Fox News are rapidly raising awareness.
Now Elon Musk (a parent of a trans child) is advocating against the sterilisation & utilisation of children & Reem Alsalem from the UN is advocating for women & children.
Pride is getting no attention.
I think big changes are on the horizon. 🙏
