And not only that but a pic of Bruce Willis as a potential suitor.

What is going on?

Has anyone joined?

Won't it just attract a load of "Oh they'll be grateful for a shag-ers?"

If you are a single mum on any dating website many of the suitors will think that anyway ime Grin

MissKeithLemon · 30/11/2012 12:20

I know there is one specifically aimed at single parents of either gender. Very weird, and it tags onto membership of other sites as it clearly doesn't have enough members to go round on its own...

I had a date once who had presumed I had joined the single parents site (as he had.) He was most put out when I wouldn't put out Grin

That's relationship-ist. Can't believe it's allowed.

SuePurblyFeltYourPresents · 30/11/2012 12:29

I'm in. Help me write my profile?

Gorgeous pouting single mummy seeks well-hung rich plaything for fun and more.

I saw that the other day. Most bizarre - especially when it's named so similarly (by design surely?) makes it look like another mumsnet branch off like the academies, home swap etc...

SuePurblyFeltYourPresents · 30/11/2012 12:32

I shall practice my pout then. Like they do on the Facebooks. Pout and sideways-upwards squint.

HullyEastergully · 30/11/2012 12:32

Is it not an MN offshoot then?

MissKeithLemon · 30/11/2012 12:35

I missed the significance of the .net bit in your thread title Blush

What a swizz! Trying to fake a mumsnet connection in order to hook up the poor desparate single horny mummyz. Ugh.

HairyGrotter · 30/11/2012 12:41

I'm a lone parent with low self esteem, low standards and desperate for sub standard cock from a bloke who couldn't get laid with the aid of rohypnol and booze...sign me right the fuck up.

Oh hang on...

AllYoursBabooshka · 30/11/2012 12:42

Oh my gawd, look at the logo. :o

Cheeky fuckers.

HairyGrotter · 30/11/2012 12:45

Ermahgerd, they have horoscope and compatability matching...vital in my opinion for any successful 'hook up'.

Very suss

BertieBotts · 30/11/2012 12:47

What baffles me is how they're advertising here and yet MNHQ aren't on their backs about copyright infringement?

SuePurblyFeltYourPresents · 30/11/2012 12:49

'sub-standard cock'

Grin
HullyEastergully · 30/11/2012 12:56

What about Desperate Seeks Anything?

That should do it.

AllYoursBabooshka · 30/11/2012 13:03

Careful with your wording there Hairy.

One womans "sub standard cock" is anothers towering inferno of penisy pleasure.

MissKeithLemon · 30/11/2012 13:04

I've just had a look and its a vair cheeky rip off of the mumsnet name.

They refer to it as 'single mums net' in their blurb on the home page. That would be like MN referring to itself as Mumsnet Com or the DVLA site for instance, as DVLA Gov - which obviously does not ahppen in usual lingo so its a blatant attempt to include the highly suss .net bit.

Only a numpty would sign up to a dating site though where the whole emphasis is about being a parent. As boring as any single-interest dating site in my very well researched opinion.

Grin at sub-standard cock too. There is a lot of it about.

HeirExtensions · 30/11/2012 13:14

I can't see it. No ads on mobile site?

FWIW I think its a good idea for MN to set up a dating site - maybe as an off shoot from the Relationships board Grin then we could appoint AnyFucker and Izzy etc to screen potential profiles. That would save me a LOT of potential heartache.

FellowshipOfFestiveFellows · 30/11/2012 13:15

Thats a bit cheeky- has MNHQ seen it yet?

I almost want to sign up and see how desperate some of the Dads are but I'm not single although if dp doesn't hurry up and do his share of the presents and paint dds room that may change

HairyGrotter · 30/11/2012 13:21

Oooft what I wouldn't give for a towering inferno of penisy pleasure. Back to looking at pictures of Simon Neil for me sigh

DozyDuck · 30/11/2012 13:27

Just checked it and has now realised that actually there is a decent excuse for art era finding dating sites in the computer history Wink time for a clear up now haha

WandaDoff · 30/11/2012 13:31

Do MNHQ actually know about it?

quirrelquarrel · 30/11/2012 13:32

Did Will in About a Boy set this up? Hmm

FellowshipOfFestiveFellows · 30/11/2012 13:36

Grin Hairy- that could've been used in 50 Shades- "His towering inferno of penisy pleasure made whatserface bite her lip"
