Don't get me wrong, I think that there are some lovely, really supportive people on here as well.

Is it just me though who thinks that there is quite a lot of bitchiness and nastiness that goes on here on a fairly regular basis?

Dog thread? Ye gods, I miss all the good ones...

Well on that topic, newbie here, has anyone read 'The Big Fat Bitch Book' By Kate Figes. It is how I found this site actually. She talks brilliantly about how women are inherently bitchy and it is actually a defence/survival mechanism......

Men are more physically agressive and work it off through sport whereas women use gossip and bitching as a release. It is worth a read.

footymum, is MN actually namechecked in that book?

There are some bitches, just as there is out there in the real world. There's also a number of self-opinionated people who seem unable to give their opinion without getting very stroppy (and spitting the dummy) when someone else disagrees. One of the pleasures of getting older is being able to sit back, smirking whilst thinking "wait 'til you're really grown up and see things as they really are". Then there are those who are just blatently honest and 'say it like it is'.

However, I wouldn't let the few who are bitchy or/and self-opinionated put you off. There are a lot of people on here who do give good advice and support.

And anyway, I like to save my bitchiness for face-to-face conversation - would be a total waste on here as I love to see the reaction on peoples faces

YANBU i agree with you Stopitplease.

Has anyone mentioned trollism here yet?

I 've read the title and first few posts..
Pot, kettle and black comes to mind as wekk as contradicting herself. Ironic that op mentioned the title was to provoke reaction or attract attention. Says more about op than the rest of mners.

My penny's worth.
