Things you do/have done that most mumsnetters would frown upon!

[Watermelonsugar345]

Just for fun.

What are some things that you have done in the past or do now that you know most MN’s would find you unreasonable for?

I’ll go first:

• I’m so unbothered if you choose to have a child free wedding and my children aren’t invited. Even close family weddings. It’s your day I’m not going to kick up a fuss that you haven’t invited to my children. You’ve probably given me at least 6 months to a year notice, I’ll just arrange childcare. If I can’t - then I can’t come and you can’t be mad at me!
• Chose to have 2 elective c sections for no medical need.
• Given my children chocolate occasionally before the age of 2.
• Son slept in a cot until almost 3!

Eeeew 🤢

I didn't expect everyone to stay away from my newborns until they were starting primary school.
I didn't mind if people kissed them without asking.

I don't mind shoes on in my house.

I wash my hair once a week.

I really like my sisters in law and brothers in law.

I've ghosted people and don't think it's the worst thing to do.

Erm, why would people keep.their toothbrush in the kitchen?😳🤔

@NooNooHead

Because of all the disgusting imaginary poo crumbs that erupt like a volcano every time you flush the toilet and cling to your toothbrush (and clothes, and hair etc).

So basically you are spoiler, you aren't brushing your teeth with actual faeces

I do all the laundry in our house because I prefer it that way. I have no concerns whatsoever about my teenage DC's ability to figure out a washing machine once they leave home.

I am really not bothered whether it's a man, woman or otherwise in the public loo. In fact I spend pretty much zero time thinking about it.

I answer the door and take in parcels for my neighbours with no issues.

Oh I don’t know, there have definitely been responses from some on MN that are barbed and resentful if someone dares spend considerable money on non-necessities. Or they are accused of being offensive to those who can’t afford it. I can’t afford anything anymore but if you can, then enjoy!

My dog's bowl goes in the dishwasher with the other dishes.
I hate pasta, avocado, salad, halloumi, hot chocolate, tuna, Chinese food and chillis.
I don't like children very much at all
I don't like dark winter days, or 'snuggling' under blankets on the sofa whilst watching a film.
I would never have dreamt of having a one night stand, using on line dating, having a 'friend with benefits' and actually don't like sex much at all!

What did the police say?

I wear shoes in the house.
I have a loo brush.
I answer the phone and the door.
My kids listen to all music even with bad language - they know they cant copy 😆
I go to church.

Im calling the police now......and the FBI

The idea of a fwb is totally alien to me. I used to
like sex year’s ago, no interest in it now. I never ever feel like I need a hug in any situation. I do though love a blanket and sofa 😁

Answer the front door, don’t cry at everything, don’t really regulate screen time very well, don’t believe all men are horrible/vile/other common MN language, address issues with people, don’t get overwhelmed by tiny insignificant things, don’t understand mental load, happily spend a fortune on going to Disney, think my DH is great and will say so,

I use "Americanisms" (although mainly the Scottish kind).

I own a copy of Spare and have thus far NOT drawn a Hitler mustache on the cover photograph of the author, nor posted any unhinged rants complaining about him and/or his wife.

One of my kids' names starts with a K and another one has 2 ys in it.

I just skip over rude, irrelevant replies and focus on the helpful, sympathetic, intelligent, or funny ones rather than making a new thread asking why Mumsnetters are so uniquely and outrageously rude and mean.

I unironically love a massive salad.

I liked my MiL

Don't understand the loo brush thing because the vast majority here clearly do have one. It's not having one that is frowned upon here.

According to one woman on here, she just smothers the toilet in thick bleach and keeps flushing.
Others said they used disposable brushes.

I reheat food and put defrosted food that’s not eaten back in the freezer have been married 35 years and nobody has had food poisoning yet.

This was my one.

I too answer the door and answer my phone to numbers I don’t know.

Remember though on MN you don't phone the police but "log it with 101" 😂

• Answer the door everytime it knocks
• Every Toilet has a toilet brush
• bedsheets changed every two weeks
• Cat allowed to sleep in/on bed
• happily carry the majority of the mental load in our home because then things are done my way
• a whole chicken no matter the size is one meal
• love cooking, hosting, taking care of people and giving/receiving gifts
• make my husband lunch and bring it upstairs to his office everyday because I like to take care of him.

I eat and enjoy UPF. (Child of the 1970’s that I am).

I wear ‘tent dresses’.

I don’t use Vinted.

I’m happily married but go on holiday on my own.

I put things in the bin, don’t donate things I don’t want any more and don’t give money to charity.

I put the cat bowls in the dishwasher with our plates.

I don’t own a washing up bowl.

I don't think I buy 'thoughtful' gifts; just your ordinary, bog-standard ones...

Have loo brush.
Make a loo roll last comfortably for 2,5 weeks.
Do laudry once a week or once a fortnight.
Do laundry at 40 and 60 degrees.
Dont use a dryer.
Wash sheets once a month.
Iron and starch the sheets.
Have bath at night not a shower in the morning.
Dont use soap to wash my whole body.
Dont use regular soap for intimate parts.

#MeToo. And I'm a ruddy bloke.

I got a bottle of Captain Morgan rum included in my Ocado shop that I hadn’t ordered or paid for. I kept it. Didn’t return it, didn’t tell them, just kept it. I don’t even drink rum. It got drunk at a bbq a year later.

MN would say I’m a thief but I have no guilt

These are very noble posts, answering the door etc , however I would bet a tenner you all do bizarre things that others would snigger at. We're all a bit weird even if you're proud for letting strangers use your bog.
