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.

Minesawhitewine it was fucking ages before I dared swear on here, and now look at me. There was a thread that made me all stabby (not a bunfight thread) and I just waded in.

I think RaspberrPi has fucked off to the evil twinkly place.

I love the phrase wankspanner. What's the cunt phrase - I can't remember it?

Oooh, I just said wank and cunt on here - that's sooo naughty!!

HedleyLamarr · 13/03/2012 13:22

There's no looking back now Minesa! :o

Bless OP Grin. Torn between feeling sorry for OP and being bemused and amused that someone can so totally misjudge a site. OP get yourself over to the education and work related threads and then see if you still think we are a bunch of oiks.

I went to a naice public girls' school where people were using the f-word as my parents were being shown round - they knew then that I'd fit right in Grin

CappyHunt, indeed. I was almost hitting the wine depths of self pity.

Elf that is BANG out of order FFS, how rude.

Blatherskite · 13/03/2012 13:25

I think the only real swear words on MN are things like Fruitshoot, G*a F*d, Netmums, Boden....

CappyHunt · 13/03/2012 13:26

minesawhitewine I find that 'off you fuck cunty chops' is a good one to remember.

Funtimewincies · 13/03/2012 13:29

I hate the word newbie. Can I have a proper tantrum too Hmm.

minesawhitewine · 13/03/2012 13:32

Oh cappyhunt I've nearly wet myself laughing!!

Dawndonna · 13/03/2012 13:34

Cutted you can't do the Sandra Dee thing, she says fuck in that song, albeit in Spanish, but she does!

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 13/03/2012 13:34

I love mumsnet you are all fucking amazing and as a fellow newbie OP I agree with all those that say you should fuck off to NM!!!

Woohoo first time ive used fuck on here Grin

CappyHunt · 13/03/2012 13:35

minesawhitewine - then you have arrived Grin

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 13/03/2012 13:36

Wanksplat.

minesawhitewine · 13/03/2012 13:38

Sorry, maybe I should have said that I've nearly fucking wet myself laughing - does that make me even more arrived CappyHunt?

Tee2072 · 13/03/2012 13:39

dawndonna she says fuck in which song?

CappyHunt · 13/03/2012 13:42

minesawhitewine - definitely!

Lisatheonewhoeatsdrytoast · 13/03/2012 13:45

YABU i swear quite a bit, in fact it'ss just a word, a part of language isn't it. I for one, will not give up fuck! And although i don't swear in front of DS i do realise he WILL use it when he's an adult, so fuck!

minesawhitewine · 13/03/2012 13:45

Oh no, I've made a major major faux pas. It's not wankspanner is it, it's wankbadger.

only4tonight · 13/03/2012 13:51

Wankspanner is a perfectly valid option. I have learnt thus:

Swear + household item OR swear + woodland creature = fucking brilliant swear!

only4tonight · 13/03/2012 13:53

Eg.

Cuntblender or arsepigeon
