Why are you making fun of someone's appearance with your logo change

[Reasonableadjustments]

Can I ask why you've changed the logo to be big ears to poke fun at King Charles?

I'm not a royalist but I don't think making fun of someone like this for their appearance is really fair.

I reported a post in the hope that a report would get picked up and acted on. Not happy about the logo. As PP said mean and not in the spirit.

You’ve misssed the point, Charles is hardly likely to know or care. The issue is people don’t like mocking of someone’s appearance . That’s why it’s wrong. We’ve moved on from taking the piss out of how people look

Absolutely this!

I am no royalist. But mocking someone's physical appearance in this way is bullying.

It's really shocking that despite all the threads and reports, MN have neither commented nor changed it.

I bet they can't change it easily due to their problematic IT, but not to even acknowledge the poor taste of what they have done is shocking.

I'm shocked!!!

How dare they?

Bullies!!

It’s also not just about King Charles but other people who have suffered, or are suffering with, bullying or low self esteem due to their ears or other physical features.

normalising taking the mickey out of how people look isn’t good

I’m a republican and I don’t like the logo. Could you imagine if someone did this to a women’s physical features?

Wow!! How inappropriate. Hope @MNHQ respond & remove it

I was wondering why the ears were there. Not in the spirit.

Not cool Mumsnet. Take it down please.

Yeah I’m in no way a supporter of Charles and will certainly not be watching or celebrating today but this is not cool. Taking the piss out of someone’s physical appearance is low, very disappointed with MNHQ on this one.

This is in poor taste imo. Not good.

I think it's funny. 🤣

Works it be funny if I was made fun of due to a physical difference?

You thinking mocking someone's appearance is funny?

You think it's funny to mock people's appearances...that says a lot about you, none of it good...

I din't give a single fuck about Charlie.

It’s an awful bullying logo. No idea what they were thinking.

I don't think it's 'funny. It's effectively saying 'Ha ha, look at our new King, he's got big ears!' Sort of thing you might expect from a four-year-old, who would, I hope, promptly be told that that was an unkind and unnecessary thing to say about another person. I expected better from MNHQ.

Wow that's awful. Not good Mumsnet

They'll probably just remove this thread for bullying or something and leave the logo up.

No response from MNHQ on either thread.
They obviously don't give a stuff about the site usersvsensibilities
Maybe we should be speaking to the advertisers

Utterly cringeworthy MNHQ.
Who the hell thought that was appropriate?

Ok so.

Taking this at face value, it's ok on mumsnet to make fun of people who have a physical difference.

Right oh. That's going to make the boards interesting for disabled people. For a start. Pregnant women. Menopausal women.
