Grown women who

[Deshasafraisy]

Still love Disney, unicorns and rainbows and all that crap. I don’t get it. Aibu

I hear things like this often, I categorise it with people slagging off young girls for liking boy bands etc. I rarely hear people saying that they don’t understand why men still like playing/watching silly ball games and getting all upset about it as if they were children. When the fact is football fans etc get far more fanatical and hysterical about their childhood hobby

Thank you queen 💕

One of these days, I really want to fly on the hello Kitty plane. And yes, there is such a thing. You can find it on YouTube.

One man's meat is another mans poison OP.

Try singing Hakuna Matata and you might feel better

It's not my taste, but YABU.

However, I know a woman in her 50's who goes to Disneyland by herself (she's single; in fact, in over 30 years I've never known her have a boyfriend or girlfriend) four or five times a year. Takes hundreds of pics of herself posing with every princess and every cartoon animal, all togged up in a Disney t shirt, with Mickey Mouse ears etc. It's the only holiday she ever takes.

She's lovely and it clearly makes her happy, but I just don't get how you could go to the same place so often and not get bored when you could go anywhere in the world with a good salary and no dependants -that's the bit that really baffles me. I mean, I love Alton towers because rollercoasters, but one day a year is enough!!

When I saw your thread title, I knew that I would be one of those "grown women" you refer to.

Have a

Ah damn auto correct 🤣

Lipstick, I have no issue with a woman taking an issue with another woman or a group of women if the subject matter is harmful or impacts on the poster , but I do take issue with women who proactively go out of their way to slag other women off for no good reason. Who gives a shit if someone likes Disney or heavy make up. Why do they feel the need to start a thread about it. The whole intent is to make these women feel shit. To put them down.

If it was something harmful. Sure. But there is no harm in someone liking Disney. If it was something that impacted the op personally, sure, but this doesn't impact the op. Disney is not my thing, but I don't feel the need to put women down because they like it. Because it's not harmful to anyone and it doesn't impact me.

And that's the issue, putting women down when it is totally harmless and doesn't impact on the poster. Heavy make up, Meghan marbles (😁) clothes, It's having a go for the sake of it. A way to feel superior to other women.

Desperate fear of growing up and facing the realities of adult life?

Blimey, and there was me thinking I like Disney and yet still have a job and a mortgage and a child. Guess I'll have to give them up!

I think we should all like what we like and to fuck with what anyone else thinks. What's the point pretending to like something you don't, or not something you do, all for the sake of others? However, I do find the unicorn craze strange: as far as I understand it from what I assumed were pretty well known cultural references and my social circles which aren't especially riske, a "unicorn" is a pretty, straight-looking bisexual woman which couples wanting a threesome seek out specifically for that purpose. Hence I find tshirts with "I'm a unicorn!" as a slogan and novelty wine glasses proclaiming "It's thirsty work being a unicorn", both of which I've seen in countless FB selfies, a little bizarre.

Soup are you me?? I also don't get people who care about what sort of car they drive.

If it goes and is waterproof, I don't care.

I’m not compelled by gender to like,support and be enthusiastic about other women,just because..

No you're not compelled by sex to do that, however when it's something that doesn't affect you in any way whatsoever, do you not find it slightly mean spirited?

We all like different things, sure, but I think I can see something of what OP might be getting at. I've met one or two women who are into the pretty-kitty-rainbow-sparkly-fairy-princess stuff who are really fucking annoying to spend time with, because it's not just about how they dress, or what accessories they carry, it's the fact that they behave like they are five. All the squeaking and prancing and fake baby-talk starts to grate quite quickly.

Poor you, OP. It must be really hard to base your judgement of people on their likes and dislikes.

I'm a 36 year old mother and teacher who is doing her PhD.

I like: Harry Potter, unicorns, Call of Duty, Disney, Star Wars and the Final Fantasy franchise.

I hate: Anything to do with alcohol, smoking, Hurrah for Gin, boring people who judge others, Tories and entitled humans.

Do I meet your approval?

They didn’t invite you to the party? Of course you curse the baby
Ha! 😂

That's it, it's the negative judgement on other women when what they ar doing is totally harmless and doesn't impact personally. The going out of your way to start a thread inviting others to join you in your negative judgement of these women. Let's all have a go and a laugh at their expense.

That's what I take issue with. Sure negatively judge if it is harmful. Negatively judge if it impacts you personally.

But not when it's harmless crap like a face full of make up on the school run, someone's choice of dress, or the fact they like disney. When you go out of your way to have a go in these instances, then it isn't ok.

Sorry to all the PP but I agree - Disney pyjamas on a 45yr old look ridiculous. Especially with an Eeyore mug. Sorry but that's my opinion...we are all allowed one!

I wouldn't laugh or mock them and wouldn't actually say anything (to them or anyone else in RL) because I'm not spiteful or nasty but it is what I'm thinking inside.

Zero interest in Disney here. Unless they have uber scary rides - the scarier the better.

Meh surely there is nothing to get adult likes different thing to you ? If rainbows and unicorns givea a woman a bit of joy what harm is she doing? I like Marvel films I am not a 12 year old boy

Wow! This has been taken very seriously. I saw it as jest.

YANBU in my opinion, I don't get it, but each to their own.

We can't all pretend we don't look at people sometimes and think, "Wow, why would you do that?!" Whether it's tattoos, eyebrows, Disney backpacks. We all think things that we wouldn't share or act upon. It's normal! Thoughts can't be policed, fortunately.

And who is going to see that 45yr old in her Disney pyjamas other than her family? Who is it going to harm?

tishhope , which jury is this that is still considering adult gamers?

People are different, as long as they dont harm me then i dont care what they are into. I'm very plain and bland in my tastes to see colour is nice in other people's homes, but not keen myself on anything too garish or frilly myself.

Thanks @Spookle I now sitting in Costa singing Hakuna Matata

thinking about taxes.

Oooooh

I don't get the Disney love myself, but each to their own. I have friends who probably think my coffee "bit" is a bit much.

I don't understand it either but each to their own, and it's a pretty harmless thing to like!
