To think TSB are batshit?

On MOTHERS’ DAY they have tweeted recognising the “dads who are mums” WTF? “Tom” the virtue signalling bellend who is running their twitter account today has clarified they mean single dads who do both roles. Erm, they get FATHER’s day?

I look forward to them recognising “mums who are dads” on Father’s Day.

Some children are brought up by their fathers. Same as some are brought up by their mothers. You cant sanitise society because it offends you some people have to be both parents

I get a "Mum who is a dad" clap on the back on Father's Day sometimes.

I don't care about either day anyway so meh

I think it’s a clumsy way to aknowledge that this can be a hard day for people who don’t have a mum. I don’t think it’s worth getting upset about

I think they’re talking about single dads who are mum & dad too

LadyDeadpool · 11/03/2018 18:47

Why is it so offensive that they're inclusive? Most places on Fathers day celebrate the Mums that are also Fathers and have done for a long time.

BarbaraofSevillle · 11/03/2018 18:48

Aren't dads 'who are mums' just 'parents'?

george49 · 11/03/2018 18:48

Although now I think about it I'm not sure what I do that is "fatherly".

Can't think of one thing.

Any suggestions?

In fact from last year metro.co.uk/2017/06/18/this-brilliant-instagram-account-is-selling-fathers-day-cards-for-single-mums-6717349/

Is virtue signalling the new MN buzzword to display your perceived intelligence? It's been everywhere today.
