Shoopshoop2 · 30/06/2014 21:18

It was either suspected troll or because some people were saying he was.

The topic was awfully unkind. I got upset.

mammadiggingdeep · 30/06/2014 21:55

I hope it was a troll. It upset me that some poor girl was unaware that the guy was mulling this all over behind her back :(

daisychain01 · 30/06/2014 21:57

It's nice to know there is kindness around mamma it felt so harsh, didn't it.

flappityfanjos · 30/06/2014 22:00

I hope it was a troll, too. Quite sad about the people saying "nobody would choose to look like that, she must not realise" (or that EVEN the feminist gang wouldn't want a hairy lip). I have a smattering of tache and underchin hairs, I do know they're there despite lack of double-mirror action, and I usually let them grow. I hope to god people aren't giving me pitying glances as I go about my business.

mammadiggingdeep · 30/06/2014 22:17

I just think there's so much shit and nastiness in the world...the guy needs something to really worry about if that's the thing keeping him up at night!!

Darkesteyes · 30/06/2014 22:20

IT didn't sit well with me either. When an MNer posted that she had to ask her partner why he had gone all sulky and it turned out that it was because she had some hair on her top lip I almost felt like crying.

YY mamma He must have a charmed life if that's all he has to worry about.

It was SOOOO for his benefit though.

Darkesteyes · 30/06/2014 22:23

What really fucks me off is that blokes like him will then try to blame the fact that women are insecure on magazines

mammadiggingdeep · 30/06/2014 22:32

Was totally for his benefit...the comment about her public hair gave that away. Lets hope it was a troll, although sadly my twunt of an ex was as shallow as the op. I got some dark patches of skin come up on my face when I was about 8 months preg. He looked at it, turned his nose up and asked "will that go once you've had the baby???". How I wished I'd poked him right in the eye...

If the op wasn't a troll, lets hope the girl dumps him soon

Darkesteyes · 30/06/2014 23:37

Mamma that's awful Im glad hes an ex Thanks

Anniegetyourgun · 30/06/2014 23:47

she had to ask her partner why he had gone all sulky and it turned out that it was because she had some hair on her top lip

iirc she didn't even have a hair, he was making it up for some reason known only to himself.

Newsflash: human beings are mammals. We have hair. Get used to it.

Noneedtoworryatall · 30/06/2014 23:49

I thought he had a valid concern and the poor fucker was lynched.

Fontella · 30/06/2014 23:56

I thought he had a valid concern and the poor fucker was lynched.

So do I - so that's two of us then!

Confused
mammadiggingdeep · 01/07/2014 08:14

Really?? You believed all the 'it doesn't bother me but I'm scared she might get bullied if I (the hero) dont step in and inform her of her own hair on her own face??'

Darkesteyes · 01/07/2014 17:41

And how does it explain him bringing up the subject of her pubic hair. Because other people (which is what he was pretending to be worried about) wouldn't see that.

OP posts:
hairylips · 01/07/2014 19:04

Darkesteyes: I posted about her arm hair and pubic hair as a poster asked if she was hairy all over her body, and another asked about if she had any hairyness caused by PCOS.

I am genuinely concerned about her, if I didn't give a shit as some of you are suggesting then I'd just say it to her face - the reason I originally posted was for a female's perspective on a way of broaching the subject without upsetting her. Whether she keeps it as it is, or decides to remove it, I'd still want to be with her - I care about her and find her attractive regardless.

Some of the people on here are genuinely lovely, but some are just man haters - I'm sorry if any guys have hurt you or fucked you over in the past, but not all guys are like that, so don't tar us all with the same brush. Some of us genuinely care about our partners.

Mintyy · 01/07/2014 19:08

What was your original name hairylips? Did it follow the same theme?

daisychain01 · 01/07/2014 20:28

Actually hairylips I would have respected you more if you hadn't come on here discussing your GF's appearance. i would be mortified if my OH did that, I know he never would, he would feel it was disloyal and he wouldnt need other people to validate his behaviour or decisions. Yes he "genuinely cares about his partner"

And your choice of username just typifies your mindset.

GirlWithTheLionHeart · 01/07/2014 20:32

So why was it deleted then?

Lweji · 01/07/2014 20:34

I am amazed that you still can't see that the whole thing was for your benefit. You are concerned that people comment.
If she hasn't received abuse so far about it, it's not likely that she will. And if she does, as a pp said on the thread, you should be there to support her and tell her that you love her regardless. And then it's her choice to do something about it or not.
There is no kind way of saying you think she should remove her face hair.

daisychain01 · 01/07/2014 20:48

Maybe MrHairylips doesnt get the fact there are some things in life that are just not open for public debate. oK, people post on Mumsnet for a variety of reasons, often to gain support. But that's a different category to this, ie a discussion about a physical trait that another human being is born with and doesn't change who they are at all. Shallow was the word I was trying to think of...
