You do give a fuck really, you do!

Grin catchup it's feminism now

Honeydragon · 14/04/2011 22:31

is that including this one? Grin

aaah...that'd be yes then. Righto.

nulliusxinxverbax · 14/04/2011 22:36

I agree. Some do some dont. move on its nobodies business.

ginhag · 14/04/2011 22:37

Ha Honeydragon, I did think that as I pressed 'post'

SouthEast yep, I am now enraged by that. I knew there was a reason I'd been keeping my distance from mn!

but the reality is there will be plenty more.all cantankerous,mostly unpleasant with Angry:(Hmm. this never resolves.ever

ginhag · 14/04/2011 22:42

Val, I really don't :)

It's the same argument being played out 50,00000 times. It is possibly one of the circles of hell.

If I could be arsed to be serious I would say that it is downright depressing watching intelligent women put each other down/get obsessively defensive about something that is a personal choice, and that is unlikely to cause the sun to fall out of the sky either way.

Feminism, feeding babies from boobs, chickens: tonight's threads have been fascinating.

Honeydragon · 14/04/2011 22:44

They are Mushroom threads, a whole crop appears overnight......then 3 days later they are gone.

FunnysInTheGarden · 14/04/2011 22:45

as long as we have LeonieDelt there will always be a good bitchfest re BF/FF. And my god am I BORED with them. Who gives a shit?

MarianneM · 14/04/2011 22:47

So you thought you'd start another thread about it?

I never thought I'd say this but I'm getting thoroughly sick of BF/FF threads too. Nothing positive is ever achieved (I fear). Opposing parties seem to all hold on to their views for dear life. It would be nice to think people would learn something from those threads, take a few facts on board maybe. But no, never. So what's the point?

catchmeifyoucan · 14/04/2011 22:49

Amen to that OP. I am about ready to never look at MN again because of the never ending 8th circle of hell that is the BF/FF debate on here.

PelvicFloorsOfSteel · 14/04/2011 22:49

Amazes me sometimes that anyone who can flog through all 40 pages of the threads has time to feed their baby anything.

And all the quoting and re-quoting and arguing the wording of every point makes my head hurt.

Bohica · 14/04/2011 22:49

Thank god it's not just me.

ginhag · 14/04/2011 22:54

So, it's all about breastfeeding feminist chickens on mn these days?

pigletmania · 14/04/2011 22:56

OOOOOOOH they are so annoying same old shit really. My head has spotaneously combusted with it all Grin

hairfullofsnakes · 14/04/2011 22:58

Who are 'they'?! It is perfectly easy to ignore a thread or hide it! Why moan when you can just ignore it?! That is just silly

PelvicFloorsOfSteel · 14/04/2011 23:02

Hmm, some chickens use incubators Shock instead of hatching their eggs themselves you know.

Ginhag - how are you finding it having 2 these days (not a stalker but may have had a different name when I commented on your thread)?

pigletmania · 14/04/2011 23:02

The bf/ff threads

ginhag · 14/04/2011 23:02

Yes thank you hairfull. I'm aware of that. But as I stated IDGAFIIABUON.

OP posts:
pigletmania · 14/04/2011 23:02

Why cant we just have a moan about it free world isent it, you dont have to read them?

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 14/04/2011 23:03

No BF chickens! They are lactose intolerant! And have no lips.

Innishvickillaune · 14/04/2011 23:03

Yes, but there IS a subforum/topic for this. And just seeing it again and again and knowing the endless circular argument that will be raging, and the people who will be posting, and the chests that will be puffing out irritates many.

I avoid them, but I know that there will be women who sit and cry over these threads and think that anyone who willingly participates in that as entertainment and preens over a point well-made or a particularly pointed refutation that makes another woman cry about her mothering is actually participating in a shameful waste of womanhood.

Honeydragon · 14/04/2011 23:04

hairfullofsnakes

see earlier mushroom analogy Grin

or like the hydra, hide one and another 3 grow back in its place

pigletmania · 14/04/2011 23:04

This is not a bf/ff debate just to moan about the influx of threads on the subject matter in AIBU, why cant people just put them in the feeding section so we dont have to endure them
