AIBU to think I haven’t been groomed and adult women are capable of reaching our own conclusions

Also, what was the point of Ed coming on here for a chat, if he doesn’t value our opinions or want our votes. Cockwomble.

He didn't come on for a chat, he came to tell us what to think.
So that's another party who won't get my vote

SlipperyLizard · 18/06/2019 17:45

Wow - know your place, mums! Discuss baby stuff and leave your hard won rights to others to discuss. Tw*ts.

DarkAtEndOfTunnel · 18/06/2019 17:47

We're being "groomed" if we don't accept biological reality that has held true for millennia of evolution?? Or if we can't see that men sometimes try to take the piss and have everything their own way?? WTF?

TinklyLittleLaugh · 18/06/2019 17:52

How fucking patronising. I’m an adult female human, aka a woman. I can make up my own mind.

I’ll be voting for the Monster Raving Loony party at this rate.

Siameasy · 18/06/2019 18:00

Groomed! As if. I’m not sure I could be groomed I’m so frigging grumpy and cynical and that goes for a lot of MNetters
Maybe this person meant Netmums?!
Of course it’s-women be nice, play nice, don’t upset men, just talk about baybeeesss and don’t worry your silly little heads about anything else.

Siameasy · 18/06/2019 18:01

Lib Dem fucking Laura 😂😂😂

JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff · 18/06/2019 18:03

Reminds me of when India Willoughby professed shock that we didn't just discuss prams Hmm

Amazing how their own misogyny appears to be invisible to them.

Proteinshakesandtears · 18/06/2019 18:05

Come here to discuss baby stuff?

I my youngest child is 9. I havent had a baby for years.

Does the mean, according to these people, I am not only 'womaning wrong' but mning wrong as well?

Ffs sake. Using the term groomed here is entirely inappropriate.

FlaviaAlbia · 18/06/2019 18:05

What a patronising twit.

HollowTalk · 18/06/2019 18:05

Grooming?

Isn't it interesting that all the words that are thrown at us are the very things that they are guilty of themselves.

prawnpatrol · 18/06/2019 18:08

"Baby stuff"
Do fuck off Laura 🤭

Proteinshakesandtears · 18/06/2019 18:09

I see she edited her tweet.

Apparantly questions were labelled ant trans.

Does that mean me arent even allowed to ask a question anymore?

donajimena · 18/06/2019 18:11

Hey Laura, I don't speak about my children here or anywhere outside of my family. They aren't babies either.

DontPressSendTooSoon · 18/06/2019 18:12

Did she mean to say 'radicalised' instead of groomed?

TheAngryLlama · 18/06/2019 18:13

Way to lose votes, bell ends

JoxerGoesToStuttgart · 18/06/2019 18:14

I know who is being groomed and who is doing the grooming and it certainly isn’t women on MN.

ChiaraRimini · 18/06/2019 18:14

DARVO as fuck.

Throckmorton · 18/06/2019 18:17

Whoa, what the heck have I missed?!

TheAngryLlama · 18/06/2019 18:24

Christ. I’ve had a look at his thread. How many votes did that twunt lose his party today?
Don’t let him out again FFS

Proteinshakesandtears · 18/06/2019 18:26

Can someone link the thread?

Can you see his replies?

Singleandproud · 18/06/2019 18:29

Can someone not set up a Mumsnet party? Plenty of people based all over the country to have a candidate in each constituency.

OddBoots · 18/06/2019 18:33

Did he mean to be so rude and patronising?

HollowTalk · 18/06/2019 18:34

Probably not what that Ed intended, but now that he has spoken so openly I have now no intention whatsoever of voting Lib Dem.

ChickenNuggetsChipsAndBeans · 18/06/2019 18:37

Not a lot of grooming going on here, I barely have time to brush my hair.

Lib Dems under Ed will not get my vote.

AlunWynsKnee · 18/06/2019 18:41

I couldn't vote Lib Dem anyway while they're letting old Aimee nestle in their ranks. Shame really as I left the Labour Party over their failure on women's rights so my vote was up for grabs. Still at least Ed's confirmed I was right not to vote for them.
