From all the terrible men we have heard about on Mumsnet who deserves Worst Man of the Year.

[madaboutpurple]

I think the man who left his family to go and live in New Zealand must be the worst man of 2024.

No it's not an unpopular opinion.

It's disgusting. She's certainly the worst woman I've encountered on MN, and he's the enabler.

I hope to God he's got a sister or someone who might recognise the details of the thread and get those parasites out.

Yes that's an absolute classic @Mamabear999

I'm still cackling about it now

Sara Sharif’s father 100% - disgusting excuse for a human

Of all the men who have done terrible things, you choose someone who has has a breakup and hasn't shared the actual reason?

Yes, he is in a "class" of his own. And his vile spineless family

Doesn't the OP mean partners and husbands who have featured on MN threads, not those murderous men in the news?

On Mumsnet the one mentioned upthread where the wife was told she owed her husband money after being on maternity leave.

The one with the newborn baby whose husband kept waking her up and she was asking for advice how not to punch him in her sleep (I would have divorced him)

The one where the husband decided to go to A&E with a relative (along with some other relatives who were also there) and left his wife to care for their children when she had just had an operation that day. That one really struck a chord as some men will do anything to appear useful aside from actually helping their own partner.

I might have been taking the piss, but I couldn't confirm.

Yeah this is supposed to be about MN threads, obviously murderers and rapists in the news are scum.

What happened with that? That was egregious. I was really hoping he just hadn’t thought it all the way through, had just had some sort of terrible advice and would back down.

I would nominate the 60y.o man who had unprotected sex with his 40s partner, then went in a huff because she didn’t immediately agree to terminate the resulting pregnancy. A whole new low.

On MN the guy whose mistress contacted 9 months preg OP to say they were having an affair. Screenshotted all evidence.

He hasnt bothered to check on OP or their children and is full of "woe is me" in his texts

They're all a blur and they completely disgust me. The fact that there are these repulsive specimens in the wild using their spouse like servants living single lives is sickening.

Yeah I think they do, but with the likes of Dominique Pelicot, the other rapists and Sara Sharif's disgusting 'father' walking the earth, I think 'Worst man of the year' is a bit tone deaf if it's just MNetter's partners.

Oh wow. I read that thread when it was first posted but I hadn't read the update! Do you have a link to it, I can't find it now!

Still makes me wonder if that was a DM journalist to be honest.

Such a common story, yet it hit the DM like greased lightening and 'concluded' not too long after.

That's a shitshow for sure. And the sad thing is OP not seeing anything wrong with his parental skills, even wanting to have his baby🙄

Yup, thanks for writing his name so I didn't have to.
Also Trump and the leader of the hideous Scottish Family Party.

What? Worse than Pelicot?

The title very clearly says " Heard about on MN". I heard about Pelicot outside MN.

I thought the question referred to posters' stories about their partners, not news items.

I wish we would retire the word "mistress." Such a Boomer word from a different era. We don't have any similar derogatory word for male APs.

"Fancy Man" ? !!

If its on MN only I would nominate any man who starts his post with
"man here"
WE DONT CARE

of course this

Leaving your wife is not great, being useless at home is not great either, but the likes of Pelicot and child abusers are on an entire level. They deserve a lot worst than the "worst man" title.

Who cares if their neighbour cheated on their wife, or left his first wife? No one in real life. If your neighbour was Sara Sharif's "father"? you would care a hell of lot more.

Oohh but we must all stop what we are doing and listen to the big important man!

I agree with OP, NZ guy without a doubt.
