to loathe the term " mummy bloggers" or " cyber mummy"

[CompyCod]

ew ew ew ew
infantilising crap

oh ok thanks!

hate the word mummy full stop.

Yummy mummy - piss off and die

DD calls me mummy when she is on the scrounge so I automatically narrow my eyes at the word

I hate nappy change bags
GET A NORMAL BAG AND PUT NAPPIES IN IT

preachign to converted tehre darrelly

What Getorf says.

It instantly puts me off whoever writes it, tbh.

I don't mind my small DCs calling me mummy, but anyone else {narrows eyes]
And I hate yummy mummy
I look stylish as a person not as an effing mummy
this was how i dressed before i had DCs, it has not altered me gah

YANBU.

Anyone that refers to themselves as 'mummy'. And tags 'mummy' onto anything and everything - 'mummy mobile', for instance, makes me want to

yes htreads on here

"any mumm's [sic] in Norwich"

yes htreads on here

"any mummy's [sic] in Norwich"

And the fact that because you are a 'mum', you will automatically enjoy socialising with other 'mums'
Errr no
We are not a homogeneous mass like the borg

is that a "spot the difference" double post?Can I claim my prize?

oh no you've already done that

bah

Although realises the irony of posting on 'mumsnet'

I too loathe mummy unless my dcs call me it.
All dh's siblings still call their mother "mummy" which I find icky as they're all over 50.

I prefer to be known as sex goddess.

yeash
i get that too.

And how the hell can scottishmummy be so called.

What venn diagram was that?

Sarcastic,pithy, blunt, non-fluffy

Scots

yet calls herself mummy

Tis wrong.

can we add people who begin sentences with the phrase "as a mother..." in some misguided belief that this adds validity or gravitas to their opinions ahead of another persons regardless of the fact that the opinion being proferred is on a subject with nothing to do with motherhood or parenting.

Women who call themselves MILFS when they have teenage children and should be ashamed of themselves.

Women who talk to me about prams.

I have a 14 year old, what are you talking to me about that shit for? I was never interested in prams anyway.

Am I boring you about dd's GCSE options? Am I telling you dull stories about her leaving her cereal bowl under her bed? No. Please can we talk about something important instead please like footballers shorts.

You are right to loathe it. I also hate the generic lumping together as mothers. So we give birth, lose our identity and become some bleating bunch of brainless women with only one thought at a time between us (who is using the family brain cell at the moment George- WW1 blackadder is the best)?
The word mummy should only be used by young children. Anything else that is preceded by the word mummy in text should be duly ignored.

"cyber" as a prefix to anything belongs in 1998.

And the worst one is....

MUMPRENEUR

BOAK!!!!!!

No she is a business woman / inventor who has children

What happened to that "mummyblogger" earlier? Did it get deleted?

It reminded me of that Uma thurman film. You're busy, we get it, but you're fucking dull.

AND IT DOESN'T EVEN FUCKING SCAN PROPERLY..................

YANBU - 'Mummy anything' sounds patronising and twee.

...However, I like to be called 'Mummy' by DS but loathe and detest the word 'Mum' in any context. I even shiver slightly when I tell DH about something I've seen on Mumsnet.

Sometimes DH slips up and tells DS to (for example) 'Give the book to Mum' and I snarl 'I'm not Mum!!!' Which will confuse DS no end when he's old enough to understand what I'm saying!

When I call DS's nursery I struggle to know what to say as I can't bring myself to say 'DS's Mum', 'DS's Mummy' sounds silly and 'DS's Mother' sounds so formal (although it's what I've ended up with).

I didn't call my own mother Mum (called her by her name) so I think its partly because the word 'Mum' conjures up a frumpy old emotional blackmailer MIL for me.

I'm even a bit about Dad. I call my own a random mixture of his name, Papa and Fathe (not a typo, short for Father). Which I'm sure sounds utterly pretentious.
