Sixspot - I was quoting StayFrosty. Because it was so good

To be fair though, all of AIBU got a ribbing tonight.

LMLT;

forget about it...tomorrows another day.

LoveMyLapTop · 16/02/2009 22:22

Will post something less controversial
like
'AIBU to feed live babies to the local peadophile'

LMLT, RiaParkinson used the phrase 'holier than thou'.

And for the record, I said I got why you would be secretly chuffed. I don't make sucked lemon faces if I get wolf-whistled, even though I don't especially welcome it. MILF isn't a very nice phrase, that's all.

I thought it was light-hearted, and I found some of the other threads funny - and they weren't all about this thread. But when this one moved on I offered an opinion.

Blu · 16/02/2009 22:28

dare you, LMLT!

Sometimes something just catches the moment onMN...don't take it too personally.

I think SixSpot puts it well, about ownership of place.

YANBU. Miserable old Nora Batty battle axes on here tonight.

'AIBU to feed live babies to the local peadophile'

Think you may have just lost any moral highground you thought you may have had....

daftpunk · 16/02/2009 22:40

yep....my thoughts exactly HuwEdwards

tiredsville · 16/02/2009 22:40

WTF?

RiaParkinson · 16/02/2009 22:40

KayHarker i did not call you holier than thou

i still hold that some folk on here are appearing so

women in my opinion feel threatened by attractive women - one of the downfalls of feminism

daftpunk · 16/02/2009 22:41

wtf...with wtf?

PollyFilla · 16/02/2009 22:41

I think it really says something about a woman's lack of self esteem if "MILF" is considered a compliment. Not to mention (if we all accept that it's FINE) normalising of making sexual comments publically to women who haven't invited them. It's lad culture writ large.

Vile.

PollyFilla · 16/02/2009 22:42

And feminism doesn't make women become threatened by attractive women, of course not. What a load of rubbish.

LoveMyLapTop · 16/02/2009 22:42

I give up
I really do not get thsi MN Stuff At all

tiredsville · 16/02/2009 22:42

tiredsville · 16/02/2009 22:44

Oh Fuck, just seen Laptops post! Thats a bit of a fucking unreasonable post LapTop.

RiaParkinson · 16/02/2009 22:45

pollyfilla 'And feminism doesn't make women become threatened by attractive women, of course not. What a load of rubbish.

Ok, so what did you mean by "women in my opinion feel threatened by attractive women - one of the downfalls of feminism "then?

tiredsville · 16/02/2009 22:48

Oh dear, I think I better get back to my Vat return, I'm going to have nightmares about this thread.
Now, I have to agree with HuwEd.
