to think this competition wasn't really fair?

[Clawdy]

Just looked at the shortlist of winners for the bedtime story competition. Two of them are men. Doesn't seem fair,though I know lots of people will disagree. It is Mumsnet after all,not Dadsnet!

You are joking, aren't you?

No.

I hope so kunkfupannda!

Why unfair? Are you serious?

Kunk??

OP what's the problem exactly?

If men are eligible to enter, what's the problem?

Um

Did you mean to say 'well done to the people who got on the shortlist' ?

Really

Really? Seriously?

kunk off, worra

Why is it unfair? Don't you think men and women can compete on an equal footing?

How would you feel if a man was up in arms about a woman winning something?

Ffs.

Op you are coming across as an idiot.

I really hope you are either taking the piss or a troll

Well done to the mums who got on the shortlist...

I like kunk off...!

I'm going to get my bet in right away - this is going to one of those rarest of beasts - a unanimous YABU!

I'm also going to bet the OP wasn't shortlisted....

I wish you'd try it...

Ha ha,you are right, kungfupanda.....I love the taste of sour grapes!

Is the woman a mother, OP? Otherwise, lets disqualify her now!

And could someone please link me to the shortlist?

You do know there is a section on here called Dadsnet don't you OP?

Well, at least you're honest!

OP, of course YANBU does that make you feel better?!

No one should even be allowed to use this site unless they are a Mother. But does that include mothers who have adopted? And those who have had surrogates or... Or... The list goes on.

Don't be so bloody ridiculous. Of course the competition was fair. Has it crossed your mind that it may have been less fair to exclude men?

I'm just about one of the hairiest, blokeish brutes that you might see walking down the street, I have a full beard, tattoos and will stand at a bar effing and jeffing with the lads whilst swilling pints of bitter, but I love mumsnet, and the very hungry caterpillar

How do you know what sex anyone here is unless you've met them in RL or seen them on a web cam?
