…for ‘breaking talk guidelines.’

The controversial opinion?

“Women don’t have penises. Ever.”

Apparently, that’s such a controversial opinion it breaks MN talk guidelines, despite the Supreme Court ruling.

What the fuck?

Outrageous! They need to reinstate your post.

Last time I looked, 148 MNers had agreed with me, btw.

You can make that 149 now.

I’ll email. I really can’t believe I live in a time when ‘women don’t have penises’ is a shocking thing to say.

This world is ridiculous.

  1. Do we need another Spartacus thread?

As does the UK Supreme Court, which I would have thought the Mumsnet moderators would be aware of by now.

  1. Have you emailed for a response as to why? Interested to hear reasoning!

Feel for you. That was an interesting thread, too.

It'd be nice to have a bit more freedom to speak our minds because these incidents do have a chilling effect on women's words, and women will just find alternative places to talk.

I got zapped in the FWR Glasto thread for hoping that the Adult Human Female flag would be protected from anyone there who'd transed their kid.

I’m imagining some blue-haired keeno zapping me.
Annoyingly, the thread is full so I can’t restate my opinion, so I’m restating it here.

WOMEN DON’T HAVE PENISES. EVER.

That is ridiculous. I’m shocked at them.

Unless this was a rogue moderator who hasn’t been properly trained, it’s very concerning.

Is there a way to appeal?

It’s really pissed me off.

maybe because it’s a fact; not an opinion
