Return of women who were right about safeguarding

[RhannionKPSS]

AIBU to think Mumsnet should allow women ( & men ) who were right about lack of safeguarding in certain places back on this site? ( if they wish to return) ?

Because of the threat of being called bigoted. It's a strong influence on many people and groups in our society, which leaves vulnerable people open to abuse.

If it can be said here - where did the banned posters go? Is there another forum I should be part of for womens rights?

Adrian Yalland has put out a series of tweets this morning if anybody wants detailed insight into harassment by TRAs.
It’s terrifying tbh, and he is a legal professional (not sure which kind).

And the flying lawyer has also put out a written statement too, so for these reason, surely it can be mentioned.

AY has had enough- don’t blame him tbh. Have a read and see what he said he plans to do.

All power to him. Enough is enough!

Fancy MN being scared of a word.

You actually believe your own post don’t you.
WTAF?

No due diligence done when appointing a trustee to a child focussed charity when a quick Google would have unconvered.

So because there are paedophiles everywhere that we don’t know about, we should turn a blind eye to the ones that we do.

Do you actually understand what mermaids is and what they have been complicit in, and why they too are now being investigated?

Do you understand the serious issues with gender affirming care for children?

You sound like a bit apologist to be honest and to be quite frank, your views here are abhorrent.

Exactly this. No idea how many posts I've had deleted for saying this. I am glad MN are letting this stand now.

Agree that @Noteverybodylives sounds like an apologist for paedophilia, looking for tiny little excuses as to why things may not be how they very clearly do seem 🤬

YANBU. Langcleg was especially professional and measured. I don't understand why she was banned.

Yanbu OP.

Plus the FWR board should be reinstated.

I do think MN should at least respond to the question.

@achangeisafoot
I’m pretty new to MN so wasn’t aware women were banned from here in the past. Kind of shocked tbh as someone who’s been banned from Twitter for the crime of making men sad. I thought MN was a pretty safe space for women to talk without male censorship. My go-to forum besides here is Ovarit.

I'm relatively new here and have always wondered what fwr stood for - as if a site for women doesn't even support that?!!!
I assumed it was something awful 😂😳

Made me laugh too

YANBU. Women should be allowed civilised discussion about ALL matters regarding safety and support of women and children. Mumsnet banning women for speaking out cos some men get upset is plain wrong.

Why were they banned in the first place? What did they say that many of us aren't saying now?

YANBU.

I wouldn't blame them if they didn't want to return though.

MNHQ - over to you.

I concur, I just want to reiterate that the post does come across as very apologetic. Most people are repulsed just reading the headline, when you delve deeper, that man is really repugnant.

I’ve noticed there seems to be a disproportionate amount of people that are supportive of trans ideology linked with sexual crimes against women and children. That alone should make people question why they have taken such a keen interest in trying to allow men into single sex safe spaces.

i very much expect a ban for expressing this sentiment but look at what happened in America with the spa. Now, tell me what came to light by that ‘woman’ sitting naked with ‘her’ out.

i very much subscribe to the JK Rowling philosophy, dress as you please, claim to be a carrot if you must but please don’t come into our toilets.

This.

They were banned for stating the obvious, which is that this whole ideology is damaging to women and children. It shows how much things have changed. We are now allowed to say this here. As long as we don’t upset ye menz too much obviously

i very much subscribe to the JK Rowling philosophy, dress as you please, claim to be a carrot if you must but please don’t come into our toilets.

Yes, this, although I'd add stay away from our sport. I really don't understand why such a view has been so controversial. I work in school and I can't say it out loud, even to staff.

TBH quite honest, I didn’t know MN did this.
I don’t use the feminism boards on here at all, and am well informed on the subject via other platforms.

To have banned these posters for this, and from a website set up for women, is appalling and quite frankly dystopian.

I can’t comment on the content that the banned posters were banned for, but I am off to do some searching.

And if MN has seen to be utterly complicit in promulgating this ‘2+2=5’ mentality re this whole issue of gender affirming care, no doubt this will come to light and blow up elsewhere.

And all for some advertising dollars and to avoid aggro.

Wrong side of history indeed and I probably wont bother coming back here ever.

I believe some accused mn of also being complicit in coercion or along those lines around a time when coercive abuse as a domestic violence issue was being highlighted a lot.

(Please correct me someone if I've got that wrong.)

There's also the three strikes and you're out thing; certain people outside mn would report certain posters who came too close to the truth too many times.

Primark announced yesterday they were revering back to single sex changing rooms after two widely nationally distressing incidents in as many weeks.

A move initially made to allowing MEN (yes men, call them what they are) to freely access women’s changing rooms in the name of trans rights.

Fuck…this…shit!

Thanks @Krakinou ! I'm over there now, clever forum name
