I don’t want mumsnet to change the name, as I think it gives it a more female feel, even though there are some lovely Male posters. I wouldn’t want it to be more Male friendly as women have few enough places to talk openly.
I agree with this. A majority-female discussion forum that's about all of life and not just doilies, pretty flowers and handbags is very rare - and as such is a very valuable way of having a laugh and wasting time instead of getting on with what you should be doing resource.
In the same way you might label a box 'rusty old used mudguards for scrap' rather than 'priceless jewellery', in order to better protect the priceless jewellery contained therein from thieves even though some kind of safe would be far better still, being called Mumsnet tends to make the arrogant, God's-gift sort of blokes self-exclude and give it a wide berth, rather than be subject to all of that 'mummy rubbish' about nappy brands and sleep training that they expect it must be full of.
A few pervs slip through on occasion, but are well roasted and rumbled, before being swiftly deleted and banned. Otherwise, we're left with mostly women and a few of the more 'thinking' kind of men - some parents, some hoping to be parents, some neither. It's all good, really.
