Actually, I'm quite drawn to Twaddle Dandy or Whispering Fish Forest

SuePurblybilt · 21/09/2012 16:08

Do you know, I have spent my day off on MN arguing about words for women, cunts and the definition of aged crone. It's a worry.

ShirtyKnot · 21/09/2012 16:09

Hmm, that's pretty revolting getmorenappies. What about the Pink Oboe. That's nice and descriptive and also musical.

Clack dish is making me actually cry laughing.

IvorHughJanus · 21/09/2012 16:10

We could invade nethuns with these, call everyone Clapper Claws and Folded Flesh Leafs. And they wouldn't know it meant cunt! No starry starry! Arf.

Hullygully · 21/09/2012 16:12

Do we know you IvorHugh?

And may I compliment you o your name?

Pagwatch · 21/09/2012 16:13

I am multi tasking
Worrying about women with dogs in prams.
Coming up with a new descriptor for female
Batch making food
Fretting over hotel booking
Watching Game Of Thrones.

Game of thrones is very taxing. It has lots of bad acting and soft porn. It is fabulous and awful in exactly equal measure.

This is a good day for me.

By help I meant more the police taking him seriously and following up Shirty, although I am aware sometimes there are not as supportive of women as they should be. But in terms of charity why should a domestic violence charity only aim to help one gender? You wouldn't find Marie Curie only helping one?

I think within society there is still the view that men aren't victims of domestic violence or that if they ask for help they're weak and not "real men". Only going from my very limited experience with my friend here but until the view of men and dv changes you'll find them shy asking for help outside of police and hospital.

I could set up a charity for DV, I could set one up for the type of cancer that killed my dad, or one for homeless people in my area after we nearly lost our home, or one for the abandoned pets we take in. Yes anyone could set one up, whether someone would have the time to run one in every aspect of life they feel there isn't appropriate services for is another issue.

SuePurblybilt · 21/09/2012 16:13

clack dish? wtactual IS a clack?

I don't think mine whispers. It's not a fecking Furby.

ShirtyKnot · 21/09/2012 16:18

Well I was under the impression that the police do take DV against men seriously. I mean, we've only got to go back 20 years really to see that the police didn't take DV against women seriously back then - and really when we still have the appalling and shocking statistic of 2 women per week being murdered by the partners I guess one could make the argument that DV is STILL not taken seriously enough.

Rape crisis and Women's Aid (clue is in the name! Grin) were set up to help women as they are the majority victims of these crimes. I'm a bit baffled as to why these places who have this remit should now (even though they are struggling as it ias) include men.

Why? Why can't someone set up a charity for male victims? I donate to women's aid and rape crisis primarily because they are female orientated. I'm sure men would LOVE to give shitloads of cash to a men's rape crisis or Man Aid if someone set one up.

Hullygully · 21/09/2012 16:19

Ah now, just cos Punk is the last of the naysayers (where DID Mr RC go? To be disbelieving somewhere?), there's no call to play rough. She was almost coming over to the dark side too well maybe.
