AIBU to think the foul language and vulgar tone of these threads is just too much

During the last few days the foul language, just a quick skim through the AIBU headings reveals such awful words, has been such that I don't think I will be coming back again too often. Mumsnet - Middle Class - Parenting orientated - really, is it really? Vulgar, nasty, ill mannered, spring more easily to mind. What a shame.

Did it say cunt? As that's a bad word

OvO · 15/06/2011 23:23

No it wasn't the way to start a reasoned debate! No one said it was. But twat faced cunt is not a reasonable reply either. I completely disagree with the OP but don't feel the need to personally attack her.

Can't remember what I put in the post but wasn't insulting anyone, wish I could remember now

reelingintheyears · 15/06/2011 23:24

JoniRules · 15/06/2011 23:25

OH RIGHT now I understand, I paraphrased the first reply and saying how childish and insulting it was, hence my was deleted

Pumpernickel10 · 15/06/2011 23:25

I don't attack anyone but if someone starts on me like vaga calling me a meth head then it gets personal :)

AnyFucker · 15/06/2011 23:26

You're next Pumpernickel

reelingintheyears · 15/06/2011 23:28

There are times when i have to pick DD up on her bad language.

She is now 23..

But is in the habit of 'reclaiming the word' as it were.

You can,i think,only reclaim a word if it applies/belongs to you.

So perhaps she has a point.

AnyFucker · 15/06/2011 23:28

I see ya, suppressing a little proud smile Wink

sneakily punching the air...

Pumpernickel10 · 15/06/2011 23:28

JoniRules · 15/06/2011 23:29

reelingintheyears · 15/06/2011 23:30

The 'underbelly' club????

THAT IS OFFENSIVE.

IMO

Pumpernickel10 · 15/06/2011 23:30

Wow weeeeeeeee I'm an underbelly

clemetteattlee · 15/06/2011 23:30

Joni, I am afraid it is definitely your fault that there is a shopping trolley outside my front gate. You and your potty mouth...
