DS wants to be a princess

Nursery are having a 'superheros & princesses' themed dressing up day next week for charity.

DS (3.10) wants to be a princess. AIBU to agree that he can be? Grin.

I think it's rather sweet personally. DH not convinced.

OP posts:
bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 22:42

Yes I remember the veggie thread and I stand by my opinion. I don't recall the thread about bullying.

And of course we don't get on. I generally don't get on with narrow-minded simpletons.

Are you Junglist then? Only your typing appears to have improved since we last locked horns.

Tolalola · 01/12/2010 22:43

Gah! Not getting into the bunfight that this thread has erupted into but:

OP - of course your DS should be able to go as whatever he likes, he probably won't be the only boy princess there.

If you're concerned about the nursery or comments from other children, then I'd maybe let the nursery know beforehand what he's planning on wearing, so they can be prepared to squash any suggestion that his costume is inapropriate.

AlphaSchmalpha is the article somewhere inside the Times? It is very unfortunate there is a big picture of a chocolate cake on the front if so Wink

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 22:45

Nothing simple here. I give support on these boards, you only nastiness on thread after thread after thread. You are pulled up constantly for it. Why do you do it? No need whatsoever.
I'm sure you generally don't get on with anyone. People as spiteful as you don't usually have RL friends

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 22:46

"All veggies are idiots" isn't an opinion. How narrow minded and simple of you

melezka · 01/12/2010 22:47

BTW is anyone else interested in the ad in the near right hand corner of this forum re: gendered toys?

melezka · 01/12/2010 22:48

oof it's moved. Shows how much attention I pay.

frgr · 01/12/2010 22:51

melezka , what was it? which company? i didn't see it. do you mean the bit above "useful tools"?

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 22:54

I too have given support both in threads and PM. However if someone is being a dick I will say so.

You're not so nice yourself anyway, lovey. Scroll up fir evidence. And if you are who I think you are, only one of us has tried to organise a fight over the Internet.

And my veggies are idiots quote came after a thoughtful explanation of why I don't haveuch time for vegetarians. You have chosen to take a quote out of context. That is up to you, though. Being rational isn't your forte.

whensitgunnahappen · 01/12/2010 22:58

I'm actually laughing out loud reading this. Read back over the thread and it's so funny. Bad day ladies?

stickylittlefingers · 01/12/2010 22:58

At dds' nursery there is a dressing up box and they can all dress up as they wish - the boys quite often seem to choose the princess dress (it is sparkly!). They don't seem to have developed a "problem" with it just yet...

It seems a shame to assume it's going to cause problems.

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 22:59

What about the nastiness on other threads then? Where you jump in just to be vile? I don't attack unless insulted first. You enjoy being a bitch, but people are starting to notice.
I haven't taken anything out of context. Do you know all veggies? No. So your rantings were illogical weren't they.
So, RL friends. Mumsnet mates. Do you have any? Just out of interest

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 23:03

What a ridiculous question; do I have any mates? What do you want me to say? That I have simply millions or that I have none and sit in crying into my gin every weekend? FWIW I have several MNers on my Facebook, most of them added after I gave sincere advice on their threads. I email two regularly.

Couldn't give a hoot that I can't count you as one tbh. I don't like you. You prize dogs over humans, try to arrange RL fights and are small minded. You're not exactly a catch in the friend stakes...

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:11

Who arranges fights? You are the biggest shit stirrer and small minded person on here. You said "I don't give a fuck about poor people", that people who use food vouchers are scum. Did you not?
I love animals because I'm kind. You're not. I care about animal abuse, and poor people. I don't jump on threads just to kick off. You think you're a straight talking poster, but you're not. You just like making drama, because I bet your RL is sad. That's why you are so bitter.
Tip for bullies: only pick on people who won't start back. otherwise you look a twat

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:14

By the way everyone, we don't know each other at all. We are only going by each others posts believe it or not Grin

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 23:15

Oh I could see that you'll give it back, I don't look a twat. You're not scary! That's hilarious!

Yadda yadda yadda anyway. We could go all night. I'm back off to my bitter, empty life. You win the internets etc etc.

Kisses. Xxxx

melezka · 01/12/2010 23:16

Errr...sorry...I really didn't notice they move...

It was a company that sells toys - rather expensive and lovely ones - and there was a little boy (in a blue tshirt) playing with a - let's say - crenellated type toy - and a little girl (in a pink tshirt) playing with a homey type toy.

Sorry - it was a bit of a magpie shiny thing moment..

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:20

I'm not trying to be scary you arse. I don't bully anyone, I just react to dumb fucks like you. Er, you do look a twat. Always.
Shame you aint butt ugly though. I tried to look on your own profile pics and you're not a crow. SHIT

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 23:23

Oh kiss me you fucking twat.

CAT me and we can do it IRL.

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:26

We can't. We decided the practicalities are too difficult last time remember, trains are down due to snow etc. Maybe at next years Christmas meet

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 23:27

Actually I'm not having this. Sometimes I AM a cunt but tbh some MNers ARE penises who need a good telling.

The veggies are idiots thing was a throwaway comment made after I posed a valid and rational argument. It was a heated thread with the veggies chanting violence etc.

A lot of the time my dry humour gets mistaken for cuntishness and I have to explain myself. I don't buy that I'm a bully. I'm pissed off at that actually.

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:32

Don't be too bothered. I'm just pulling things out of bags to insult you with. With dry humour, it doesn't always come across in black and white.
And I'm not a dimwit, or simple. You can't judge that on the internet. You do swan onto threads with insults, even when they have calmed down ages ago. There's no point to it

bupcakesandcunting · 01/12/2010 23:37

Listen. I have a wonderful repertoire of insults and they need to be showcased and if some cunt tells me I wouldn't let my DS parade around dressed like Sarah Jessica Parker in drag then I'll tell them about themselves.

I think you actually touched a nerve as DS likes me painting his nails and DH and I had words over it on Sunday. I think he's being an epic mouthbreather, he thinks I'm encouraging Ds to be "weird@. Bit rich coming from the bloke who spent his high school years dressing like Robert Smith of The Cure Hmm

spikeycow · 01/12/2010 23:41

I'm always touching nerves. So are you, cunt. Your insults are quite good. So are mine I reckon.
You are tiring. I hope I am too

DirtyMartini · 01/12/2010 23:43

"oh kiss me you fucking twat" Hurrah!
