In fairness, I think people who are worried about being outed are concerned their previous posts will be looked at & people they know will realise its them.

But they are so IMPORTANT people if they mention their husband going golfing/cricket/down the pub people AUTOMATICALLY think it's their Rupert.

it's annoying but not as annoying as posters who refer to their child as "they" when they could more easily say "he" or "she". And quite often, halfway through a long post, they'll slip and use the sexed pronoun anyway.

How is it "outing" to use the correct sex pronoun for your child?

I didn’t need looking after - i was with a group of muggle friends but I did get free drinks passed my way so for this one time only, the hobby paid off 🤣

imagine if I’d been up to something though. It was a bit disconcerting. We’d travelled a long way!

Muggle friends? So you’re a wizard? That’s actually quite outing…

I think most of the "this is outing" posters, whether about hobbies or anything else, have delusions of grandeur.

In the bad old days of Mumsnet, we used to know people's names and have meet ups. Now people are worried that they'll be recognised because their partner's into mudwrestling or marble competitions. Just say what it is then change yer feckling name

I do hiit fit but there must be loads of other people who do as well or they wouldn't run classes

Going by MN I would say wanking and shitting are the hobbies of most husbands on here
