AIBU to think it's just bloody awful?

'Hi L! How are you? Sorry I haven't replied , busy few days in the office. Listen, I really enjoyed our time together but I think your caring roles are a different world to mine. It just doesn't seem right for me to, and I thought you needed to know. You ARE beautiful (yes you are!) , but I can't get past this. I needed you to know so you knew why sometimes it won't work , but I'm sure there's a very nice guy out there just for you 😌'

I go from thinking it's cringe, to patronising. To maybe making for of me?!

For context, went on a few dates. Kissed and asked to have sex. I did. I wanted to. Wasn't very good but we move

He's then text this. Whilst I'm on a date with someone else Saturday night Grin

I still haven't deleted the text so me and a few friends can have a laugh.

As will you. I'm sorry but I've watched this post go on and on... and no one attacked your beliefs or views until you started using absolutely disgusting language! And claiming your way of living is "the best one"
I have friends (you probably don't have that many) with completly different beliefs and religions to myself... we love and respect each others differences... we ask with an open mind to understand..we don't have to agree.. but I would never! Call another women out on her decisions. Your use of language I'd foul! Your empathy for others is non existent.

And if you feel your preaching for the kind of people who "deserve" there place in heaven.... I'd rather burn in hell.

No one asked you about your sex life... especially the original poster.

I really do hope you can reflect on your own behaviour towards others.

Hardly. There is a pattern toward this kind of post on MN, and a particular type is posting them. In some ways it's unfortunate the post upthread was deleted, as this gives the clearest indication of what this is.

The deleted post expresses a distaste with the female anatomy which goes beyond even disgust and borders on actual horror. The coarse, disgusting language used, the viewing of women's bodies as dirty, diseased and repugnant, indicates something a bit more than your garden variety misogynist. It's a deep-seated hatred and disgust of women.

It's true some religious cults can instil this level of abjection in some people about their own bodies and those of others. Some religious sects are particularly censorious and repugnant in their views of women (cf. menstruation huts).

The language of that post, however, is the language of one cult in particular: the incel. Unfortunately of late this site has been teeming with those.

@SerafinasGoose I guess better posting stupid shite here than some of the other activities those folks get up to in the real world. At least they are easy to spot.

Technically I agree with you Mumof3 that casual sex is shit- not much fun, not worth the risk if something goes wrong. Much better with someone you trust and love.

But why care about what other people do? And I don't condone slut shaming tbh, even if I don't want to partake in casual sex

Thank you firstly.

I dont actually care what anyone does and free will is an amazing thing - OP posted in a place where people are able to give their own views and i gave mine - thats all.

Its not my job to educate women into respecting themselves its a CHOICE we all have - OP chooses not to - her CHOICE, good luck to her and heaven forbid she gets the clap!

Theres a hell of a lot of sheep here though all baaaah-ing because i think its disgusting and not very classy at all.

IYKYK

🤣🤣🤣🤣.
i particularly enjoyed the sideways stray into a transphobic rant about unicorns and glitter horns. The brief foray into vaginal PH was most entertaining too.
i agree with a pp one of the most amusing yet disturbing posts on mumsnet 24 so far.
👏🏻🤮😭

Edited

Stray? How is another example me straying? Furthermore, whats disturbing is the face sooo many 'women' think this is ok!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 lets see if they post when they DO get a serious infection! Those are the odds SLEEPING AROUND - 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

I don’t think one extreme person here should be getting so much attention.

But know this, extreme people of MN, we will be here when you find out things are not quite as they appear in your life. And many of us will be here with kindness and compassion no matter what. Indeed, more shall be revealed.

Waving her fanny around on 'dating' sites is just asking for guys like the one who txt her that msg and he wont be the last one either if she carries on putting it about which it sounds like she is.

Well. How the puritanical mask has slipped.

Do put your misogyny away before someone trips over it.

A late comer - welcome.

Truth is truth and i will not mince my words to please you dear!!

Puritanical mask? I wear no mask. I never said i dont have an attitude!! How silly of you to ASSume. One thing that is pure though... my meow meow 🥰🥰

Op is waving it around then trying to bash the poor guy for dumping her!! Maybe her Vag is not a jewel but a used up KFF bucket hence the text he sent when he dropped her like a hot potatoe! KFF = Kuntucky fried fanny) 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Your definition of truth is as questionable as your epidemiology.

But as the great Sir Terry Pratchett used to say, “the company of those seeking the truth is infinitely preferable to those who think they’ve found it” 🙂

Here we go again 🙄 Call it what you want.

Is it true that you increase the risk of getting an STI if you sleep around with many different men/women? YES!!

Is it true that women and men have lost self respect as a result of casual sex culture? YES!!

Is it true that those who have been one hit wonders often feel bad about themselves looking for validation on MN because they feel like crap? YES!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 where is the lie detective?

Why so vile about other women? Actually, I refuse to believe you are a woman. Probably some creepy little incel bloke. Because that's the sort of mentality you follow.

Ah mumsnet at its finest.

OP: “hey I think this bloke‘s text is a bit ick”

Responses: “you’re just bitter he didn’t want you, and btw you’re going to get AIDS or an outbreak of boils in your nether regions if you don’t get some self-respect”

It’s so lovely to see women supporting each other against the patriarchy 👍

Theres a difference between supporting, condoning, encouraging, allowing ...

Who is more deserving of support of the two? ;

Girl A sells sex for money with a view to make it out of her situation - she doesnt want to do it but has no other way to support herself.

Girl B GIVES hers away for free to everyone but then complains of no satisfaction and gets upset after she's been bashed and dashed like a spoilt entitled idiot.

Support is what i'd give to Girl A. Girl B however..YUK YUK AND YUK🤢🤢🤢🤢 disinfect and sanitise !!!!!!!!

Your key board seems to be stuck.

This sounds like an Uber narcissist the way he wrote about being beautiful. Please avoid.

Tartantotty · 05/02/2024 17:54

At least he's being straight with you. Forget it and get on with your life.
