Am I being unreasonable

[thecatshed]

To expect to read messages that don't contain swear words? Today was the first time I've looked at Mumsnet and was very disappointed at the result, as I was expecting a sensible discussion on subjects relevant to parenting.

Annie may I offer you some rum biscuits? They won't fix your game but they are yummy.
Tiggy I will never forget that now. Everydays a school day.

Ah bless.

catch a falling fuck and put it in your pocket never let it fade away

I'm going to decorate my Christmas tree with glittery fucks. What a charming thought.

Netmums has no swearing.

However I think you'd miss out on a lot. I've been over there a few times and the boards just don't have the discussion and depth we have here imho.

It's the swearing that keeps me here. Mainly because my day job is teaching those kids that you want to have a sensible discussion about.

Me, I prefer a nonsensical discussion myself.

If nothing else, this thread has taught us the name for rimming a lab and also provided cake decorating tips. What is not to love??

This will end well.

trying to restrain myself from leaving a post repeating the word fuck over and over and over

Fuck

HTH

If it wasn't for Mumsnet I would never have learnt the phrase 'fuck off to the far side of fuck and when you get there, fuck off some more'. It has come in useful on many occasions since and I am eternally grateful to Mumsnet for being such an essential repository of handy information.

If its ok for the Bayeux tapestry..

YABVVU

Why don't you start a thread on a sensible discussion relevant to parenting and stipulate no swearing? That would go down terribly well.

You may like this thread btw OP

Weird font. I think it's those small aitches that ruin it.

Did you see nothing of the penis beaker debate in the media? And you expected PG language about parenting only?

If swearing offends you, this really won't be your pint of gin.

Which areas of parenting were you expecting sensible discussion:

Breast v bottle
Controlled crying
BLW
Potty training.

Good luck!

Sometimes we talk about doing the sex. Who'd have thunk it.

Fay There's sex talk on mn?!?

Will nobody think of the children?!

I do hope OP comes back

You have to verify that you are over 18 to access it Pretty. Sometimes the word vagina is used. Or so I've heard.

On reflection I think your best bet is to start a thread about parking. A lovely, benign subject that will not attract frothers. Perhaps throw in a school, P&C spaces for good measure?

Oh lordy, how in the gods good name can people talk about (whispers) lady bits?!

Imagine if someone came in and just shouted VULVA

Folk should learn to keep their mummy flower to themselves.
