AIBU to be livid how dolphins are portrayed compared to how they are?

I am angry and sick and tired of how dolphins try and make out they are nice and friendly and cute when they are anything but. They are one of the most aggressive species in the animal kingdom, regularly involved in GANG RAPES of other dolphins that sometimes goes on for days, they also kill their OWN children so that the mother pays more attention to her husband dolphin so he can have sex with her without her being distracted by her child and they also are aggressive to humans when nobody is looking (I.e in the sea when nobody is around, not when they have an audience like at a sea world centre) But everyone says “aww dolphins are so cute and so friendly” but their not.

I think it’s because they look like they are always smiling and laughing that people think they are cute, but to me they look like they have evil eyes and cackling rather than laughing. People say alligators and crocodiles and snakes are evil what about dolphins? People only see the tame ones that like to show off to humans and do tricks and let us swim with them and stroke them and think all dolphins are like that but the ones in the wild are a different matter altogether.

Plus, people say that dolphins are clever because they use clicks to communicate with each other. Has nobody stopped to think that they may be clicking and conspiring amongst themselves?

I’m actually fuming, only because I just got back from someone showing holiday pics and they were going on and on about the dolphins and how they were so cute and I told them dolphins aren’t cute and they are dangerous and would they swim with and pet crocodiles? They Didn’t get why it was the same but any animal can turn against you and I have even saw footage of a dolphin purposely try to drown a human and drag them underwater. AND they also kill other sea baby animals and play volleyball with them, they don’t even eat them or are threatened by them, they just do it for a laugh. Why are they seen as friendly animals?

Do dolphins identify as male or female though? Can you be cis dolphin or indeed dophin fluid? I think there are some pretty nasty DERFs on this board. I'm reporting the thread to the Green party.Wink

AgathaRaisinDetra · 08/10/2018 20:21

Can you keep a detachable penis in your crocodile handbag? What would happen at the airport? Who would want to get that out in the Something To Declare aisle?

This is the best thing I ever read on Mumsnet. Thank you dear Otherwize.

FekkoTheLawyer · 08/10/2018 20:28

Oh course dolphins are fluid. How else would they slip through the water?

winniestone37 · 08/10/2018 20:28

God help you love. Thanks for the laugh though. Animals aren't humans.

DERFs are always anti gang rape- bigots. I think you would be better reporting to west Yorkshire police.

Although the Green Party have recruited a number of dolphins as election agents, I believe.

QuackPorridgeBacon · 08/10/2018 20:51

DERFs 😂

thenaughtyone i was just about to write an identical post saying the same haha

Gg1510 · 08/10/2018 20:59

Wow.....
"Dolphins try and make out they are nice and cute...."
The dolphins are plotting against the world with their clicks and smiles... now that's a conspiracy theory that needs investigating.... Immediately

Are you aware this is mums net and not wwf?

Also give your head a shake, this conversation is for stoners or the end of a night debate when talking utter bobbins is relevant

Witchofwisteria · 08/10/2018 21:08

YABU...mainly because ITS JUST A FUCKING DOLPHIN

PolarBearkshire · 08/10/2018 21:09

Wow. Dolphins gang rape... i had to pinch myself to realise if ehat i read is not a dream.
Animal world is ALWAYS less crazy than himan world.
I fear to imagine what dolphin would think reading this hahahahaah

Banterlope · 08/10/2018 21:16

PolarBearkshire, as it's on the internet they would obviously get electrocuted if they read this. Plus there's the problem with flipper dexterity, for example. They ain't that dumb.

Laiste · 08/10/2018 21:18

Octopusses (Octopi?) have penises (peni?) which swim off on their own for a shag?? ShockConfused

I have a severely disabled DC. For so very long I have been saving, researching, planning, hoping, praying, wishing for the once in a lifetime, bucket list, healing, therapeutic opportunity for him to be able to swim and interact with dolphins.

After reading this thread, my dreams are in tatters.

Instead of being seen as Devoted Parent/Carer of the Year 2018, it sounds like someone would be sending in the social workers.

Back to letting him stroke rabbits and cats, and feed ducks, I suppose.

Oh. Wait.....

Aaaahfuck · 08/10/2018 21:28

I've laughed so hard at this post thanks

Batwoman76 · 08/10/2018 21:36

No you’re not being unreasonable. I’m an ecologist and it constantly flabbergasts me how daft people are. Otters? Massive river weasels who bite each others’ bollocks off in fights

ilovesouthlondon · 08/10/2018 21:37

I'm behind you on this. I swam with a gang of them last year and one of the cunts ejaculated on my hand. Sex pests, the lot of them.
