It is rampant.
Does @mumsnet notice? Where is the line on what stays up and what comes down?
Understand people are allowed their own opinions - even ill informed ones. But the constant tone of disdain for 'muslim men' as if they're all the same is really prevalent and I don't see any other form of racism tolerated by Mumsnet or it's users. I will start reporting if Mumsnet is unaware of the issue.

I don't recall seeing a single post on "muslim men" on mumsnet and I am on it most days.
However, if you do see such posts and they are offensive, why are you not already reporting them?

It's usually more subtle on MN!
'Men of a certain culture' is often used; as was 'a certain East European country' when saying something bad about Romanian men/women back in the day. Since Brexit there's little reference to the Romanian bogeyman, hostilities have moved on.

be happy your not catholic or have any musings of christianity.
mn is brutal, a whole tread on how those with religious beliefs (although easily could be muslim or judaisim) are less intelligent than athiests.
thread upon thread about how ridiculous it is to believe anything other than the current weather.

Exactly @Garlicking Are we all wrong then? Is there actually a good chance that a muslim man raised in Morocco is serious in his intentions towards a 'normal' (western) single mother living in the Uk??

@SirChenjins Agreed.
And @MNHQ is absolutely correct to allow discussion & criticism of religious misogyny & subjugation of women on a primarily female forum.
