To think the Mumsnet coronation logo is quite mean?

[AdaBrady]

Disclaimer: I’m not British and have no skin in the monarchy game, but I do think the ears are a bit much.

The good thing about this thread is it’s alerted me to femvox which I hadn’t heard about before and looks good

Caricature covers a person's entire face. It doesn't reduce them down to one body part. Political cartoons are making a political point and criticising a public figure's actions.

This isn't an anti-monarchy satire. It's literally "big ears, herp derp".

How puerile. Who authorised that?

Someone did it knowing weekend will be minimum staff so it won't be removed anytime soon

Report report report

They will notice

At best it's a badly thought out and immature "joke" that has missed the mark

At worst it's an inappropriate message that you can mock people's appearance based on physical attributes you have no control over. @

Either way it's very disappointing to see such a mean stunt pulled by MNHQ

Yes it is pretty rude.

Poor effort - lazy attempt at ‘humour’

Not being funny but is ears aren't even that prominent a feature

Meh. I don’t like Charles or the Royals so don’t care, probably wouldn’t have noticed had this thread not existed.

Me too - I hadn't heard of it, nice to have an alternative, hope it's less brutal

As soon as I seen it I thought ooh I wonder how long the moaning will take to appear. I’m sure Charles is reeling in his palace that the mumsnet logo is kicking him.

It's not nice.
If the logo needed to be altered to recognise the coronation, just add the crown.

Why the need to add the ears? It's just not necessary to mock someone based on physical appearance.

Children are teased at school about things like this. As a parenting website, they shouldn't be encouraging it. Child I teach is 5y and gets upset about his ears due to teasing (bullying) and is already talking about how he can get rid of them. He is only 5 and already upset by his appearance.

It is in poor taste. Even when I dislike someone I wouldn't make fun their appearance.

This was in response to having discovered Femvox through this thread

I signed up there because if nothing else, it's a site for women. Not creeps, not trolls, not advertisers, not whatever the hell this logo is meant to be about. I figure if we can't support each other then what can we do?

But it's a sunny day and I need to do something other than stew over a juvenile logo dreamt up on a Friday night.

MNHQ so hypocritical it’s ridiculous. I’ve been using the site less and less due to their policing and ‘not in the spirit of the site’ business constantly. Than this openly mocking someone based on appearance.

MNHQ do better

Wow, that logo is nasty. Who on Earth gave that the ok?

@yougottawonder - absolutely!

So if others have done it, then it's ok to mock someone?

Completely non brutal, @RosettaTheGardenFairy

🤣🤣🤣 I'm surprised they've done that, but I laughed.

Sorry @DarrellRiversCriminalBehaviourOrder meant to qoute post you replied to.

Are the toddlers in control at MNHQ? Who thought that was a good idea?

I’d probably have read the room and not fronted up to inform everyone you laugh at peoples physical features, let’s see a picture of you then.
