AIBU in noticing a increase in radical feminism on MN?

I'm not talking regular old feminism where equal rights are the goal, I'm sure we can all agree on that being important.

But there is a level of extremism emerging that goes from dizzying entitlement to outright man hating.

What gives?

Lorne sausage ?

BabbityBumble · 20/04/2024 18:00

I think Lucky Charms might be banned though as there's a family jewels connotation there.
Probably ok if you crunch them down with relish whilst maintaining an icy Paddington stare with a man.

In a pinch. Wafer thin ham artfully displayed in a celebration of the feminine is more acceptable amongst feminist gourmets.

I hope it's ONE of the items on the approved list of Radfem breakfasts because I don't eat cereal but you will prize the fresh, white slab of tiger bread toast covered in salted butter out of my cold dead fist.

I actually eat that every day.

With marmalade.

And square sausage (but not with marmalade obv.)

is it now compulsory for all rad fems to buy this? I'm supposed to be on a diet, but if its required of me to buy it to show my commitment to the cause, I will reluctantly do it....

I don't think rad fems are allowed to be on a diet?

Surely the root cause of the man hating is because we are all overweight ugly and frigid and can't get a man?

Not because we have brains and an ability to think critically, oh no its definitely because we are bitter

Possibly not if they eat Kit Kat cereal and Caramilk ice cream

I dunno, maybe my membership was revoked when my a cups turned to a more desirable e in pregnancy. Of course, as a rad fems I am dutifully breastfeeding to ensure their unavailability to a man/men.

I applaud your efforts to keep your breasts from their real job of providing men with sexual gratification you man hater!

We're also the ones keeping findus crispy pancakes in business.

Thankfully I have spawned a man hater who feels it is her duty to censor my breasts from the males of the species, and any moment not doing so is an affront to feminism.

Me too. Why did they not admit that they'd misunderstood the meaning of radical feminism and bow out early? The bit where they pretend they knew what it meant all along, even though we can all read the first post, is the best/worst

BabbityBumble · 20/04/2024 17:59

Radfem breakfasts just need to exclude anything sausage shaped. For obvious reasons. Also in modern times, the aubergine is frowned upon.

The still beating heart of our enemies is a nice touch if you are wanting to impress radical guests. Pair with bucks fizz and drawn curtains on a bright spring morning for a charming brunch.

what if the sausages were sliced up, surely that would be acceptable?
I like both sausage and aubergine (baba ganoush, stuffed with rice or mince, in curries and even just fried) so can't be giving those up... can eat them while hating men if that helps?

Perhaps he got trampled by the Marathon running rad fems. Hear they're quite vicious. Dizzyingly so.

Guess we will never sample the (opal) fruits of ops labour. Mind you if he cared a Dime he'd return with the spoils for our Picnic.

Chopped with unblinking eye contact and the right amount of venom these are acceptable, as long as a comically large knife is used. Ideally a machete.

Using both at once is particularly valued in the rad fem movement, just as long as you don't accidentally give your captive husband a weapon.

This is all well known amongst the feminazis. Just check out this dog whistle from glinner.

Trapped in the Londis Bin (Part 1)

Eleven o'clock in the morning
And the rays from the sun wakes me
I'm stretchin' and yawnin'
In a bed that's in my mum's basement
And my voice yells, "Good morning, mumsnet " as I log on
Then I come out with a question
Why you all screaming
Not pleasing, just extreming?
And to my surprise, those bitches
Are so rude
Now I've got this dumb look on my face like, what have I done?
How could I be so stupid to be have asked those harpies why they're the extremist ones?
I know I started a thread
But now I gotta kill it dead
Will be back with evidence
And this will all make sense
Tell those cunty fuckers I'll be back
Hit with requests for snacks
I gotta go but I'll return
Later secrets of dizzy females I'll learn.
But now.
Must of lost the track of time
Oh, what was on my mind?
From the basement to the shops
Planned a half an hour trip-tops

Fast forward and I'm at Londis now
Getting rolos and chipsticks for those cows
I go to use the automated till
Soon those bitches will have to spill.
Oh. Wait. What the hell is this.
Split my bag for life.
Packed it way too tight.
Here I am, quickly tryin' to Scrabble for the snacks
All the whole fearing a misandry attack
Suddenly a chick gets in my way.
A rad fem identified by her dungarees and sway.
Then she stretched her hands and in front of and says.
"You can't go this way"
Looked at her, like she was crazy
I said, "Woman move out my way"
I said, "I got a hivemind at home"
She said, "Please don't go out there"
"Lady, I've got to get home"
She said, "But the rad fems are coming, please be aware."
"Shh, shh, quiet
Hurry up and get in Londis bin
She said, "Don't you make a sound
Or some shit is going down"
I said, "Why don't I just go out the door?"
"Yes, except for one thing, the radfems are on tour"
"Shit, think, shit, think, shit, quick, put me in the Londis bin
And now I'm in this darkest Londis bin tryin' to figure out
Just how I'm gonna get my crazy ass up out this place
Then a troop of radfems run round the corner
Not one of them suitability fawning
Then one walks in and yells, "your sweeties or your life"
We're training for the marathon
She says, "There's an incel in this room'
Now I'm shaking before my doom.
She hops up on the bin
Clangs- cause rad fems they ain't thin.
Now I'm quickly trying to say my prayers.
Don't want to end up in a feminazi lair.
And says, "I'll cook and skim this fella"
And I can tell you I'm quaking, dropping the Fruitella.
I'm in the Londis bin, like man, what the - is going on?
You're not gonna believe it
But things get deeper as the story goes on
Next thing you know, a call comes through on my cell phone
I tried my best to quickly put it on vibrate
But from the way he act, I could tell it was too late
She hopped up and said, "There's a mystery going on, and I'm gonna solve it"
And I'm like, "God please, don't let this bitch open this bin now'
She walks in the alley
And looks behind the bin
Dungarees says, "Drop it, have a smore"
She says, "Bitch, say no more"
She pulls back the recycling
While she's biting her nails
Then she walks back to alley
Right now, I'm sweating like helly
Checks under the cardboard bin
Then under the tin cans and other recycling
She looks at the Londis bin
I pull out my Cornetto
He walks up to the Londis bin
He comes up to the Londis bin
Now she's at the closet Londis bin
Damn, she's opening the Londis bin.

Oh my god an incel!

of course! I'm a feminist, not a barbarian

tbh I don't make my own, takes too much time and distracts me from my man hating. I have a lady who keeps me well supplied at a very reasonable price

TheShellBeach · 20/04/2024 20:39

I could actually live on potatoes.

With a little Kit Kat cereal on the side.
