After 1000 posts all the unpopular opinions are aired

@Icenii

Fleeces and hiking clothes are really sexy.

Being a SAHM is NOT anywhere near as hard as juggling work and kids.

LordOfTheOnionRings · 03/01/2021 16:30

I think if you have a glass of wine every night then you have a problem.

I think the same about cycling gear
carlaCox · 03/01/2021 16:31

Most dog ownership is either quite weird or quite unethical

Icenii · 03/01/2021 16:32

wondering I mean it. I love a man in a black fleece Grin

Trans rights are human rights

Most cats are actually trying to take over the world.

I love Prosecco, and think most MNers who say it is ‘grim’ actually object to the idea of being thought of as a ‘Keep Calm, Open the Prosecco’ greeting card type person.

I think if you have a glass of wine every night then you have a problem.

So do I. If I couldn’t have at least two I’d have a problem with my wine supply.

That's not unpopular opinion. That's a fact
SpnBaby1967 · 03/01/2021 16:41

That being called a CIS woman is highly offensive.

I'm a woman, a biological female. End of. Dont need your stupid woke terms.

DappledThings · 03/01/2021 16:44

White as a choice for nearly anything looks shit. This goes for walls, bedding, plates and clothes, especially baby clothes.

Chocolate tastes the same as it ever did.

Newmama29 · 03/01/2021 16:48

I had a baby shower & wasn’t attention seeking or grabby Grin

I also let my baby cry it out when I’m busy doing something else, most of the time he then falls asleep

ilikebooksandplants · 03/01/2021 16:48

@DappledThings I agree with you on white walls and bedding but how on Earth can you object to white plates? Any other colour makes food look horrible really.

Vivi0 · 03/01/2021 16:48

@Level75

The existence of trans women is not a threat to women's rights.

It's not actually a big deal at all.

I agree.

I also love going to weddings. Especially destination weddings.

Newmama29 · 03/01/2021 16:53

I also find it weird paying grandparents for childcare

rosegoldivy · 03/01/2021 16:55

Lip filler can look great without giving a trout pout

not quite the same but similar... long johns can be quite the turn on.
Brieminewine · 03/01/2021 17:06

Gin tastes like hairspray
Some posters seriously misuse EPAU (early pregnancy assssment units)
Letting a toddler watch babytv won’t cause adhd asd or speech delays

I just think they look so boring. Like you can't be arsed picking a proper pattern!

OhBollocksToIt · 03/01/2021 17:18

Gin is not lovely.

Neither is salted caramel.

I own a loo brush, two infact.

I wash towels once every two weeks, same with bedding.

I don’t wear knickers in bed.

A chicken won’t feed my family for a week.

I liked Dubai.

I like weddings, I think they’re great.

I like Cadbury’s creme eggs.

Camping is shit.

Wrapping up and taking my kids out in the rain is not enjoyable.

Snuggling under a blanket and drinking hot chocolate is not fun or practical. Just turn the fucking heating on.

ballroompink · 03/01/2021 17:18

Children having jam or honey on toast or some sort of 'kiddie' cereal for breakfast isn't child abuse.

People who have no health issues and no DCs with health issues or additional needs who say they couldn't possibly work or couldn't possibly work full time because they wouldn't be able to do housework or life admin and because they 'have no family help' need to get a grip or just admit they don't want to work/work FT. Millions of parents manage to do it.

SchrodingersImmigrant · 03/01/2021 17:22

I see how many times camping made an appearance and I have to stand up for it😂
Camping is shit here in camp sites and with the weather unless you are lucky. Wild camping in some beautiful nature with nice stable weather is great😁

Norabloody · 03/01/2021 17:23

Some reasons for affairs are forgivable eg abuse and being scared to leave
