to wonder what a dadsnet would look like?

[Silvercatowner]

There are so many threads about seemingly useless husbands/dads/boyfriends. I wonder if a dadsnet would have an equal number of threads about useless wives/mothers/girlfriends.

I googled picolax when I had to take it..... I read that thread I was SCARED!

Riverman - I'd love to know where that is please! :)

aaand there's no discrimination/insulting stereo-typing on MN.....

The way the thread has gone, and always was likely to.

if my dp were on mn he would be as offensive as possible just to wind everyone up

I post on a dad's forum elsewhere, mostly our energy is dedicated to secretly upholding the patriarchy, obviously, and not talking about nappies. contraptions and extremely tasteless jokes or anything.

It would probably be full of threads about football, sex and cars. And very little about parenting.

Riverman Can I join? although I love strikethrough and only ever use it for self-deprecation and humour

Obviously there is no need for an AIBU on dadsnet.

Thread continues to 1,000.

I see the (jovial and affectionate) ribbing on this thread mainly showing men up as being less neurotic than women. They're the negative of the usual threads on here where mothers fret over every morsel they feed their DC, every word that has been uttered to them at the school gates etc. We're saying that men are less likely to give a shit. It's affectionate and, you know, not entirely serious.

But if you want to hoik your bollocks, do carry on.

hahaha @ 'hoik your bollocks'

If you called out every instance of sexism directed at women river you'd never have time to eat. or sleep, or use the toilet

I'd like to pity you being a man on this thread, but I'm finding it hard and can't find my tiny violin
