To resent the men disrupting feminist chat

It seems to me that Mumsnet used to be a place where women's and girls issues were named and talked about by clever witty women . Now we are being shouted down by [redacted on OP's behalf by MNHQ] which exists to deny women's reality. Good brave women are leaving as they are no longer able to talk about their concerns. So many women have become more aware of the issues here. I am angry that mumsnet are allowing this to happen

And naughty naughty feminist posters being mean to the poor little soul

Ive no fucking patience tonight

Ive been told a billion times by longstanding FWR posters that A B or C is happening....ive seen posters be 'mean' for no apparent reason

BUT THE FWR POSTERS HAVE BEEN RIGHT EVERY FUCKING TIME

so just a heads up for lurkers

If you see someone in FWR be 'mean' for no reason

The odds are really good that there is a good reason for it

Genuine question - how do you know they're men? Doesn't stand to reason that they're automatically men because they think differently to you.
I've been called a man on here a few times. I most certainly am not.

It's not transexuals who pose a thread, mostly. It's men. But if you don't bother reading you won't (deliberately) understand.

I don’t understand this - i see TSs all the time defending male rights to ever female area- and sports. So what will you do when it all gets scaled back to TSs - and they demand to compete in female sports snd have access to every female area?

The paying for dates thread has been deleted as the OP seems to be a previously banned poster.

That and his username was a rapist.

Genuine question - how do you know they're men?
In this case the first clue was using a famous rapist from history as a posting ID.
The second was demanding that Feminists take a position on a date who didn't know he wanted them to split the bill without telling them and had the unmitigated gall to go to the loo after eating and drinking.
There were many more clues, but those were in his first post.

Thanks to all who have been supportive.

It hasn’t been that many years since YOU joined to bait the women in FWR, larrygrylls. No surprise to see you here showing your original colours and getting a dig in. You’ve been pretty quiet on the MRA front of late, but some of us have long memories.

Stirner · 28/06/2018 23:02

So, in a nutshell, OP you're complaining that feminism isn't enough of an echo chamber any more ?

pinkgirl1234 · 28/06/2018 23:49

That wasn't how I read it at all.

thebewilderness · 29/06/2018 00:19

We have been trying to talk about the effects some laws, death threats, assaults, and bomb threats, are having on women.
We are being continually interrupted and told that we are bad for objecting to having women's rights rolled back to the 1850s.
