To ask other mums on MN not to use the F word?

I am a newbie. I find that F word is peppered in a lot of the threads. I used to swear a lot but I have stopped completely because I realize it's common, and makes a woman sound undignified. Is it too much, ladies, to ask you not to use F-ing thsi and F-ing that? Can't we adults discuss things without resorting to sailor language? Thank you.

I've not read the thread. However Fuck right off, dearie. Can't be arsed with people who have stupid ideas about swearing. It's so common not to swear, I can't bear these pathetic, working class, social mores.

UptoapointLordCopper · 13/03/2012 10:15

Tee2072 Ah but it was the OP who got the creative juices flowing, I'm sure. Grin

Hellboy · 13/03/2012 10:15

coffeeisking · 13/03/2012 10:16

OP - how very rude!....

Nope, can't think of anything else to say other than

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck

The urge was too strong, I realise I've failed as a woman, mother, human being! And my children are going to end up hideous members of society

Oh well, where's the fucking coffee?! Grin

DoUntoOtters · 13/03/2012 10:16

Have our children been pitied yet?

I learned the word 'wanksplash' on MN. It is my very favourite word ever.

TheBigJessie · 13/03/2012 10:17

DoUntoOtters

Yep!

D0oinMeCleanin · 13/03/2012 10:17

No, but they've been worried about, DoUntoOtters. We have't reached pity yet.

Kewcumber · 13/03/2012 10:18

tee2072 - I recognised it too but couldn't say for fear of destroying my common credentials

MakeHayAndSneeze · 13/03/2012 10:18

I don't swear much irl (I'm a laydee) but will be adopting Fuck off to the far side of Fuck then Fuck off some more. Lovely.

Oh, I'm a teacher as well as a mother

tantrumsandballoons · 13/03/2012 10:18

Obviously back to nethuns........

MrsChemist · 13/03/2012 10:19

Well, I've been here for eleventy billion years, and I think the chicken keepers should stop taking about chickens, because a chicken once looked at me funny.

Fucking chicken.

SconeInSixtySeconds · 13/03/2012 10:19

for fucks sake, I miss all the fucking laughs what with having to read my fucking children a fucking story.

Fucking Harry Potter?

You are having a fucking laugh.

UptoapointLordCopper · 13/03/2012 10:20

My favourite is WTAF. DH was impressed.

tethersend · 13/03/2012 10:20

Well I think you should all be very ashamed of yourselves.

You've let the OP down.
You've let yourselves down.
You've let MN down.

You big bunch of cunts.

hermionestranger · 13/03/2012 10:20

Shit I can't fucking swear?

Bollocks.

Op are you in fact a character from jilly's book "class"? Jen Teale?

I am not educated but I do have an interview at the University of Manchester (google Russell Group OP) on Thursday. They would like to see if I am a suitable fucking person. Worries that she is very common. Hmm

tantrumsandballoons · 13/03/2012 10:20

I love that too (wtaf)
I use it all the time.

storminabuttercup · 13/03/2012 10:22

Fucking hell, this thread moved quick!

I don't swear myself, so couldn't give a flying fuck...

SconeInSixtySeconds · 13/03/2012 10:24

Ooh ooh, I have introduced the phrase What the Actual Jeff (Shirley's tm I believe) as being an actual sweary free way of saying Gosh that seems unlikely.

They are 8 and 6. I am very proud. Grin

IamtheZombie · 13/03/2012 10:24

Zombie thinks the OP should at least stick around until Friday night.

Zombie is sure that after a visit to the Drunk thread and a waft through the Spliff thread the OP will be in a position to appreciate the subtleties of Bumsex.

WhatWouldFreddieDo · 13/03/2012 10:24

Is that you, AnyFucker?

Longtalljosie · 13/03/2012 10:24

Worrying about swearing is awfully lower middle class... Grin

coffeeisking · 13/03/2012 10:25

Is no one going to warn her about Fridays?! Wink

coffeeisking · 13/03/2012 10:26

Seems someone already did. Wink

PineappleBed · 13/03/2012 10:28

Ha ha ha just imagining OP shouting "but won't someone please think of the children??"

I love MN as it doesn't try to opress my freedom of expression.

coffeeisking don't tell her about Friday you'll ruin the surprise!
