The more I read about Mumsnetters’ opinions on sex and sexual attraction, the more I am convinced that a hell of a lot of married women are colossally in denial about the fact that they’re asexual or repressed lesbians, and only married a man because they wanted a baby.

This is a BIG claim and quite intriguing! I wonder if it’s true …

People who don’t have a tv are always insufferable wankers who go on and on about it. They always want to watch it when they come round to your fucking house!

I once posted about a well known TV show (so wasn't expecting questions like "that sounds interesting, which channel please?")

Someone replied with "who has? We don't own a TV"

You only need three cheeses. A nice strong cheddar, mozzarella and a stinky, squishy one. Anything else is overkill.

Samuel L Jackson plays the same character in every film he does.

The holes in Crocs are where your dignity leaks out from

NO!! What about halloumi? You can’t leave that out……

I agree with you.

re the books total agreement too & agree with it ends with us, I read it & related too.

The todd & Theo story in Corrie also gets to me, they are doing it so well, I watch it & I thinK I was Todd & I wanted Billy to save him so badly.

I’m sorry you are able to relate, everyones story is different & important too even afterwards when you aren’t being abused you are still living it everyday in your actions. It would be nice to not relate but its so important to tell these stories because if they even help just one person to realise their situation & that they can break free, its worth it.

What is the Coronation St storyline?

I think it's usually about bumping the post so more people see it.

Some posts never get replies, so even a less than ideal first reply is helpful.

'Bump' is simple and less virtuous.

But then the OP wouldn't know to be grateful they've taken time out of their busy lives to type 'bump' instead of just 'running'.

People in teams calls with 200+ people on who post in the chat they have to leave to take a call, answer the door, go to another meeting. Nobody cares and you’ve distracted everyone on the call.

We have horses, we're well acquainted with mud and outdoor physical activity, we wash it all off before getting into bed though.

I maintain that having something that licks its own arse and is covered in grease in your bed is gross.

ETA dogs stink, and so do their owners houses.

The majority of long term relationships are people settling for one another because they don’t want to rock the boat and/or can’t be bothered to date again, truly happy long marriages and relationships are rare.

MrsChristmasHasResigned · 18/03/2026 15:53

People who bang on about dogs being unhygenic are demonstrating that they think they are superior and are probably up themselves and are the reason I prefer my pets to people sometimes.

Mental health may be an invisible illness but sometimes suffers do just need to put their big girl/ boy pants on and get on with life . ( or maybe just my DH should)

Mental Health is not an illness.

That's a brilliant idea! I'm quite short so I'd be closer to the front. 😁

Me too. There's nothing worse than finding a nice spot then, as the band comes on, a 7ft man wearing hat appears right in front of you blocking your view.

There is nothing ‘cheeky’ about Nando’s.

”Influencers” should get a proper job.

PrettyPickle · 18/03/2026 16:08

If you tell me once again, how easy I have it as I don't have kids, I will deck you! You chose to have them, it was your choice and you should have thought it through first like I did, or maybe it wasn't a choice, maybe I am infertile or just never met the right person to have them with - button it!

Rant over!

It's been going on forever.

I'm not sure anyone can shorten it down for you but Google might help.

Or tune in next year and it'll no doubt still be going on.

This is a great thread, if only to find out that some PPs - whose posts I've previously liked on other threads - are apparently utter cunts

😄😄 now this is an interesting one

I feel like diversity is important

I also feel that women are human and can sometimes be vicious in a different, less obvious way, to me

Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed working in mixed teams but my one experience of an all female team was not enjoyable. No one was especially vicious but there was an air of faux-agreeableness, self righteousness and a bit of an echo chamber... Maybe it was the nature of the team and the kind of work we did as well, but it wasn't a dynamic I enjoyed.

Agree with the "influencer" bit plus just to add the ones who are sugary sweet online whom I have met in real life have been horrible.

Smokers and vapers should only be allowed to conduct their stinking habits alone in their own homes. And pay for their own health treatments for conditions arising from their own irresponsibility.

People who say 'hard agree, hard disagree, hard stop'. You can all fuck off, and if you dont like it, hard luck.

A corduroy jacket on a man is tantamount to him carrying a sign reading, "I have neither hope nor expectation of getting laid, nor do I deserve to."

I may have said this aloud once or twice. I was only trying to help.

gingerperil · 18/03/2026 16:36

School ptas are the devils work as are the women on them 😡 and I generally like women’s company but something about them makes the women go batshit.. (1 term left then secondary school which is delightful
in comparison) and primary schools are overrated too.. too much parental involvement required

Anyone who refers to themselves as “a foodie”, claims to have a “taste explosion” in their mouths does that fucking annoying thing of waggling/repeatedly quickly air stabbing their fork at the food (usually accompanied by sex noise/face), anyone over the age of 2 who uses the words “pud” and/or “veggies” (they’re usually all the same people) should be forced to eat nothing but gruel for the rest of their lives.

Oh and anyone who does that fucking annoying finger nail tapping on products should have their hands tied behind their back and cast adrift in a rowing boat

Absolutely, and the weird finger waving under the chin thing. Wtf is THAT?

Actually, while I'm here. What's with the irritatingly loud sound effects on video reels these days? There's just no need for it. I know you're using scissors, I can SEE them.

Most dogs are hideously ugly.

Most people are for that matter.

every once in a while you see an absolutely stunning specimen of the human race either male or female, who are just wonderful to admire. Same with dogs, same with cats.

all the rest of us are right mingers to varying degrees 😂

but then again, we're more likely to have developed our personality, become more interesting, engaging and good to be around, to make up for being a minger.😃
