Ethics regarding Instamums and huns

BurberryIsSo2000 · 24/05/2018 17:14

Homeisthecalm here, I think it's suitable to start a new ethics thread.

Since clearly, the one from yesterday isn't really about ethics but Clemmie.

Thanks all,

Keep it as nice or as stingy as you like Grin

I'll start off by saying things should be clearly marked 'ad' or 'gifted'

Although the term gifted gives me the rage

finks100 · 25/05/2018 21:56

👆seriously think before you post!

Boredandtired · 25/05/2018 21:58

Grace o Leary their supposed independent talent manager is on Instagram. Someone should get in touch.

RunMummyRun68 · 25/05/2018 21:59

what finks??

HeedMove · 25/05/2018 22:02

The post about being in the kids fancy dress and looking like a drag queen I dont see how that can be found offensive at all. Men dresses in drag are drag queens. You do get bad ones. Theres nothing offensive about comparing himself to one at all he isnt referring to transexuals. People just love to be offended about everything these days.

@heedmove 'pre-op'....

Readingchair · 25/05/2018 22:04

HeedMove "pre-op" seriously?

HeedMove · 25/05/2018 22:06

Oh I apologise I never seen that.

Readingchair · 25/05/2018 22:06

The Telegraph are tapping out their article as we speak...

Boredandtired · 25/05/2018 22:07

@heedmove I'm sure he is just trying to be funny but gosh he needs to be more careful.

Readingchair · 25/05/2018 22:10

Jim Davidson is 'just trying to be funny' too.

finks100 · 25/05/2018 22:18

Sorry, Rumummy, my pointing was aimed at the post in the previous thread that talked about thinking before you posted. You posted before I did ...not aimed at you - oops!

finks100 · 25/05/2018 22:23

Runmummy not rummummy! (I also don’t know how to link )

Boredandtired · 25/05/2018 22:24

@readingchair I'm not defending him was just responding to heedmove's comments. It's an unbelievably stupid move on his part. And to not change it as soon as the comments came in is so remiss.

RunMummyRun68 · 25/05/2018 22:25

i'd quite like some rum!!

SheStoodInTheStorm · 25/05/2018 22:29

Is this the fourth Insta thread or have I missed one?

dynevoran · 25/05/2018 22:31

I can't believe in the midst of drama that anyone would post something like that unintentionally.

CadyHeron · 25/05/2018 22:35

Why are you telling us who you are on insta..... are you after more followers? Why do we need to know?

Confused why on earth does it matter who starts a thread? People said they wanted a new thread, they got one. Why so snippy?

Boredandtired · 25/05/2018 22:42

@cadyheron I didn't even realise it was an Instagram username,I thought they meant they'd name changed!

Readingchair · 25/05/2018 22:48

I'm sorry BoredandTired I didn't intend to attack you. I know what you meant. Apologies.

Boredandtired · 25/05/2018 22:55

@readingchair I genuinely surprised he doesn't double check posts and respond to first few comments, he could've picked up on that fast, changed it and dealt with it. Now there's fangirls fighting people picking up on it.
Have to say I'm also surprised that after all that on his wife's page hannahisawake is not blocked from his account!

Greengrassofwyoming · 25/05/2018 23:05

Oh dear fod has seriously f*cked up this evening.

SemperIdem · 25/05/2018 23:08

Has he? Why? I find being called cisgender offensive but I am mere woman so why would my opinion matter on that?

I initially found these threads very interesting but increasingly it all seems a bit unhealthy, the level of interest in FOD and MOD goes way beyond genuine interest in their ethics.

poca · 25/05/2018 23:10

I agree, I think his ethics stink but stop following him and watching his stories!

Threeizthemagicnumber · 25/05/2018 23:11

@boredandtired I'm glad she's not though, she makes an awful lot of sense!
