There’s absolutely no excuse in this day and age to eat pigs.

Transing children is child abuse.

Heyboyo · 06/10/2019 18:50

Cats are shit pets.
Dog haters are not to be trusted.
Transwomen are women

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 18:51

  • MANY more people regret having children than will ever admit it
  • You can’t be a meat/dairy/egg eating environmentalist
Doobydoo · 06/10/2019 18:59

Army/Navy ads are radicalisation.
Wrap around child care= outsourcing other people raising their children so people can pay mortgage on shoe box and over compensate at weekends by giving child lots of stuff..

I think the death of the housewife is one of the worst things that has happened to this country.

JustDanceAddict · 06/10/2019 19:15

Not working is boring AF (I’ve been a SAHM), fine when they’re pre-school age but after it’s shit.
People who do nothing to help the environment can piss off. We all can make easy, small changes aren’t hypocrites if we’re not all lentil-knitting hippies.
I like going out, I don’t understand those who don’t go out at all.

As a sahm of school age children, I can tell you being a sahm is vastly improved by them being at school Grin

CAG12 · 06/10/2019 19:21

I hate being shown pictures of peoples children. No, I dont want to look at a picture of a child I dont know.

Kanga83 · 06/10/2019 19:23

Ok, you did ask, and since this is an unpopular opinion post (and I won't justify my reasoning to any responses to stop any arguing).

-There's absolutely no reason in this day and age not to be vegan or at best vegetarian. Anyone who isn't is quite frankly selfish.

-I hate anyone who works in an animal lab. It's evil. I've cut off a family member and as a result my nieces and nephews because of it.

  • I strongly think anyone who voted to leave quite frankly doesn't deserve to ever vote again.
  • hyphenated names are tacky.
  • the current genderless fad is bollocks.

Please don't all shoot me. I am actually quite nice.

Bargebill19 · 06/10/2019 19:24

Agreed. Would love to be a housewife and it’s a much missed part of social life - they were /are the glue of society

CAG12 · 06/10/2019 19:26

@Kanga83 agree on the hyphenated names. It just to be the domain of the wealthy, now everyone seems to do it which makes it tacky.

@Doobydoo but not the RAF?

Bargebill19 · 06/10/2019 19:26

I hate having to coo over other people’s babies.
I think our society is less civilised than ever before.

Dutch1e · 06/10/2019 19:28

We over-vaccinate.

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 06/10/2019 19:33

@Doobydoo I use wraparound care as a single parent so I can afford the rent portion of my shared ownership house.

You're very sneery of people using it to pay for a 'shoebox' but how do you think most people afford a house?

I know this is one of 'those' threads, but why not just rename it 'I'm a cunt and I don't care who knows it?' Don't try to dress it up as 'telling it how it is'

Runningmyultra · 06/10/2019 19:34

@flirtygirl I've never met anyone who does any of those disgusting things you listed!

formerbabe · 06/10/2019 19:39

I don't believe saturated animal fat is bad for our health.

AloneLonelyLoner · 06/10/2019 19:41

People with penises aren't women
New vegans are annoying (and I'm a vegan)
Leave voters are idiots of great magnitude
Tattoos are shit
Kids are irritating
Dogs smell and should be destroyed (and I'm a vegan)
Orgasms are important for mental health
Fat people are really sexy

Doobydoo · 06/10/2019 19:41

Myghast plenty of views on here I do not subscribe to. Please do not presume to know me and do not call me a cunt......you know absolutely nothing about me.

Doobydoo · 06/10/2019 19:42

CAG12..of course the RAF

MyGhastIsFlabbered · 06/10/2019 19:45

I wasn't specifically calling YOU a cunt @Doobydoo it was a general observation on how these threads invariably turn out. They seem to bring out the nastier side of people and I don't think I've seen a single one that hasn't ended up being pulled.

It's strange how you say that I shouldn't judge you as I know 'nothing about you' yet you think it's okay to judge a whole swathe of people who use wraparound care, whom you presumably also know nothing about?

I know I'm wasting my time, the whole point of these threads tend to be to be as unpleasant as possible.

Doobydoo · 06/10/2019 19:52

Myghast..I do know what you mean. I don't think I have ever posted on this sort of thread before. I think I am probably thinking of some people I know etc etc.....I was brought up by my mum....I know it is not clear cut.

Loveyou3000 · 06/10/2019 19:53

Giving your child a weird, unusual or oddly spelled (eg. Emmileigh instead of Emily) first name is cruel and tacky, and it won't make your child 'unique'. Hyphenating first names is also unnecessary, just give them a middle name

namechangered2019 · 06/10/2019 19:54

You cannot change your biological sex.

If you’re born with a penis you’re a man for life.
If you’re born with a uterus you’re a woman for life.
End of.
So matter how many ops you have and how many certificates you get and how long you live as the opposite sex, you’re always the one you’re born as. It’s scientific biological fact and you’re stuck with it. And no you can’t compete as the opposite sex nor use those toilets.
