YANBU to post here if you're a dad.

YABU to pretend to be a mum when you're not.

But ultimately, that's up to you! The joy of an anonymous website is that you can be anyone you like.

You'd probably get better responses to your questions if you represent yourself more honestly though.

until AF has called you a name you havent joined!
no one is nice here on AIBU go to chat or dadsnet

Confused

Just from style of writing and obvious acronymn errors, I actually think PaWithaBra really is more likely to a MumWithABum who in reality is a TrollWithABowl and a large wooden spoon.

PaWithABra · 14/11/2010 22:42

Pan, thanks for the advice,

I will will cease to try to respond to evryone.

It would seem that it is all too easy to be missinterpreted.

back to see the people thoughts on father Christmas.

Cheers Pan

Why don't you just give him/her/it a break and let them post.

If they are trolling,they will get sussed pretty sharpish.

I'm sure there are thousands of posters who aren't who they portray to be.

OP just seems to be a bit stupid in admitting it.

AnyFucker · 14/11/2010 22:44

SJ, spot on Grin

troll with a doll

fucker with a trucker

dick with a prick

who cares ?

post or don't post, but don't do the attention seeking "am I or am I not" thing

and certainly don't do the "you are all so horrible" thing on your intro thread...

just be honest, there are plenty of blokes on here, some of them are even quite normal Wink

TrillianAstra · 14/11/2010 22:45

Very weird to pretend to be a mum. I don't.

TheOleDragon · 14/11/2010 22:46

I don't understand why you pretend to be something you're not.

BaronessBomburst · 14/11/2010 22:53

Trillian - just checked your profile page to see if you were a man. Nice shoes!!! In fact, I was so impressed by your shoes, I forgot to check out your DH. Grin

TechLovingDad · 14/11/2010 22:55

First MN tranny?

TrillianAstra · 14/11/2010 22:55

I have a profile with shoes?

Oh yeah, I should get rid of those pics, or label them better, they are from Reality's wedding - BoF took them on her phone but couldn't upload them and eyone was v keen for an update. That's Reality's shoes and DH!

Pan · 14/11/2010 23:00

no TLD - just a bit confused poor lad.

BeenBeta · 14/11/2010 23:09

MumWithABum - no definitley dont pretend to be a woman but you can be asexual or a bit ambivelant though.

Some posters are still unsure surprised I am a bloke from time to time.

Dont mind that AnyFucker its a tradition for all male posters ot be told off by her within the first week of joining MN.

Bark's worse than her bite. Grin

BaronessBomburst · 14/11/2010 23:12

Oh - glad to have seen them then! I lurked a lot on the posts discussing her wedding. :)

Pan · 15/11/2010 00:08

AnyFucker · 15/11/2010 00:09

Pan · 15/11/2010 00:10
AnyFucker · 15/11/2010 00:10

gender-confused peeps included Grin

Pan · 15/11/2010 00:11

that's very mature of you. Now go to bed.

AnyFucker · 15/11/2010 00:11

don't you hate it when sober people raise one sardonic eyebrow at ya ?

bah

BelaLugosiinStripes · 15/11/2010 00:13

It should be pawithabro or pawithamanzier surely?

Pan · 15/11/2010 00:18

night AF. It will all make sense in the morning.
