Opinions you have that aren't popular on mumsnet

[Lockdowner35]

I would say

Pineapple on pizza is decent

Smoking is fucking brilliant, and sexy.

agreed

Most men are lovely, some are dreadful

Trans women with male bits shouldn't share loos with women and girls

People can say something politically incorrect and still be nice people

Tories are mostly scum, but some are decent. Lots of politicians are trying to do the right thing

Co-sleeping isn't the solution when your baby won't sleep.

@freakyfairy,clearly a touchy subject for you. All these must travel men
Yep of course on occasion they’re at it

@XDownwiththissortofthingX

J K Rowling is a transphobe, a bully, and a raging hypocrite, and her 'essay' is laughable, uni fresher level nonsense.

And her books are irritating as all hell. The world is great but Harry is an unbearable wee shite. I hated them as a kid and have held firmly onto that opinion ever since

Also, adults who treat HP like the greatest thing since sliced bread need to grow up.

Smoking is cool and you know it!

Yes it is a touchy subject because you assume that just because he works "away" that it makes him an asshole... it's his job, it had it long before he met me. I'm not going to make him change it?? Why do you assume these ppl have a choice?? A pilot won't just suddenly stop flying because he got married and had kids!

I think Cadbury chocolate tastes the same as it did when I was a kid. I don't find it greasy either. I like it fine.

Most men are good people

SAHM are not as busy as they think they are

Football is great

@Cheeeeislifenow Yes about the covid restrictions. I spent 3 years in a rural village in Bangladesh back in the late 70s, between the ages of 9 to 12. I had approx 1 year of home schooling in that time (not by my parents, an actual primary school teacher who was paid to teach me and my two brothers, because my parents gave up trying to do it after 2 hours). No friends, no hobbies, no television, no internet, no fucking nothing. All we could do was read and listen to the BBC World service.

Somehow I managed to survive and (eventually) ended up going to Oxford. I want to scream each time I hear this bollocks about how 'damaged' and 'illiterate' children will be.

Still better than being dead.

@freakyfairy, you really won’t change my mind,whinging and telling me all these really compelling examples of why men must travel. I’m not going to say, hey you know what you’re right! He’s sooooo important

I agree, pineapple on pizza is great!

NHS workers are not all heroes. They are normal people, just like the rest of society. Some workers are brilliant, some are awful. Some services are brilliant, some are awful. Some experiences (inc. customer service) have been brilliant in the pandemic, some have been awful.

Fertility treatment should not be available for free on the NHS under any circumstances while there are still illnesses the nation can't afford to treat.

The UK is a great place to live on so many levels when you compare with many, many other countries in the world.

Fish fingers don't seem to be doing my daughter any harm.

The CV-19 rules are not hard to understand. You just have to read them.I

McDonalds is awesome.

Primark isn't that bad really.

Christmas starts in October. And this is a good thing.

McDonald’s is actually ok !!

No is not a complete sentence

I never said he was important I said that the jobs require ppl (men and women) to travel. I find it really narrow minded of you to think otherwise! Do you really think those jobs should ONLY be for single ppl??

@pollysproggle okay, I see that it is your opinion but I want to know what your method is that stops children wetting themselves while they’re asleep once they’ve turned 3? It’s just that if laziness is the problem then I want to know what you did that I couldn’t manage.

Love your post !

my friend's diet has remained largely the same as it was since she was about 2 years old, which is:

nutella on toast/pain au chocolat/chocolate pillow cereal for breakfast
cheese sandwich/ham sandwich/nutella sandwich, wotsits/chilli doritos/ready salted walkers crisps and a penguin bar/chocolate digestives/oreos for lunch
some variant of breaded chicken, potato waffles and spaghetti hoops/jacket potato and tomato soup/a rerun of lunch for dinner

• usually an energy drink, lots of cola and sometimes pringles/melted chocolate for snacks. east sausage and chips from the chip shop and mcdonald's at least once a week and adds loads of ketchup onto anything she eats. she is healthy and skinny, it never did her any harm yet people continuously make a huge deal about their child having a beige dinner.

Waitrose is overpriced and shite

Your personal anecdote about your child and how they ‘turned out fine’ is not generalisable to the rest of society and is effectively meaningless.

Russell Group unis are only a big deal on mn.some of the RG are distinctly average

Mumsnet is fun, entertaining and informative and the mods do a decent job of keeping the worst posters under control.

@stovetopespresso

that people with no experience of kids shouldn't be on mumsnet

Why? What's this thread in particular got to do with being a parent? Nothing? Therefore why can't childfree people like me post here?

I'm not an introvert. I answer the front door, and answer the phone.
