Just had a huge argument with dh about something trivial which escalated into something massive. Apparently this argument wasn't because dh was being an arse, oh no! It's because I like am slightly obsessed with mumsnet, and I read it too much! Confused I think he thinks its giving me ideas Grin aibu to assume this will now replace the are u on your period/hormonal question for men who's dw/dp are part of mumsnet? How very convenient for them!

Tbh, with some people I can see the point. My friend is on here. And I mean ON here. She will periodically check her phone and update on threads and such. At night she sits for hours just posting and running all over the site. From what I've seen, her partner could be naked doing a helicopter dick dance and she wouldn't notice :D

So, if you would notice a naked penis circling, you aren't spending too much time on here :)

YABU - he's right. I almost always feel a whole lot worse after a session on here than I did before. So why the *k do I do it? Who knows. Lol.

I would definately notice a naked penis flying around so maybe I'm ok ish I tried to explain that mumsnet is v informative, just yesterday I was in a zombie thread and discovered that I would be very useful in a zombie apocalypse Grin However, as this info came on the back of me calling him a Muppet, he wasn't very interested!!

When I'm in charge a nightly performance will be required of all men Grin

I explained the 'Loons' thread to DH today and he said it sounded very much like the conversation we were having round the dinner table at the time. All 4 of us, that is, not just me and MN.

I usually come off MN with a big grin on my face, but that's probably down to the threads I pick - the odd serious one if I feel strongly about it, but mostly just bonkers stuff about fitflops

It's times like the puppetry of the penis shows and helicopter dicks that I wish I was a man. The amusement I could provide for myself, I need never buy cinema tickets again.

Possibly just me though.

IHaveAFeatureWallAndILikeIt · 29/05/2012 22:04

my DH would agree. He blames a lot of my views on mumsnet!

HaveALittleFaithBaby · 29/05/2012 22:37

Yanbu I've had this recently too. It's more about MN influencing my opinions too much than specifically how much time I spend on it though.

No StripyMagicDragon it's not just you. Grin BlushBlush

My men-folks all stand behind me singing "You are SO unreasonable, yes you are ... " Like some mutant barber's shop quartet until I surface and start paying them some attention.

No-one has ever tried the heli-penis thing, though, and now I feel all deprived. Sad

MN empowered me. my EX didn't like it. he could see he was losing control over me and he knew it wouldn't be long before i saw through him and kicked him into touch.

the hormone comment was always thrown at me when i was standing my ground over something rather than giving into him for an easy life.
