Trans identified Mumsnet member AidaP is scraping Mumsnet

Hi Mumsnet, though you should know that a trans identified man - who often posts on Mumsnet as @aidap - is scraping the feminimism board, in order to create some sort of grading system.

It's basically electronic stalking.

What is this?

Oh yes, I have downloaded most of mumsnet and we will be doing embeddings of the content to try to understand how does the rot and hate builds and spreads.

I never had so much hate and delusion on my hard drive before 😅

It's true that banning him will not stop him scraping the site but I think allowing him to continue posting, expecting FWR posters to put up with his continued presence when everyone knows what he's doing and what he's saying about us elsewhere, is really unfair.

I don't see much difference between on the one hand, posting on bluesky about raping women with a splintery rolling pin then posting here, linking to bluesky and saying 'I wrote that', and on the other hand, just posting here about raping women with a splintery rolling pin. It's the same abusive post, just with an extra step.

He's a goady fucker. He's not posting in good faith. All of his posts, along with his very presence here, are NITS. He's broken the T&C. He should be banned.

People have been banned for less
I think that’s the main takeaway here

If you don’t guzzle bottles of wine generally it’s not a problematic
As i very clearly stated, obviously that doesn’t resolve the issue holding our piss in

Guzzle bottles of wine?

Do you need bottles of wine just to get through a normal day?

Oh God, yes as a woman life is very overwhelming which amazes me why anybody would want to come and pretend to be one of us.

But then surely they’re not trans women they are in fact predators and fetish
Blokes in fact

If only we could persuade them to wear clearly visible large print labels so we know which is which.

I am a man.

I am a mean man.

I am a mean man do you need a tampon?

No image attached to the post at all. There was one attached to your post, but what does that have to do with @JLou08?

You quoted my post with this image, saying it contained nothing about Rowling/rolling pin. I responded.

I've bad news for you MN readers. The various LLMs have probably already scraped the site to death.

I don't understand the logic here. What's the fear? that your views will be scrutinised? That someone disagrees with you?

He will be doing this to identify people in real life so that he can threaten to fuck them up with his splintery rolling pin.

Just another day in normal 'trans' world.

So you are relying on their trousers as evidence?

What if they have a skirt on?

Remember Liam Madigan in his school skirt?

This would be a valid point, were it not for the fact that MN posters have a track record of doxing people they don't agree with, and/or seeking to 'out' people as trans (on occasion, incorrectly).

The splintery rolling pin comment is disgusting.

I do find there are other clues in those scenarios saying this I think I’ve only ever met like three of them in my entire life
And 2 out of the three would’ve been 25 years ago
It’s not like they’re on every street corner is it?

No, more likely women and wee girls changing areas.

usedtobeaylis · Yesterday 09:08

It's hilarious that there are still people who insist that men who identify as trans no longer have any male pattern behaviour. No not hilarious - a good example of societal fucking stupidity.

Am I being hysterical?
Do I get a doctor to come round and give me an orgasm to sort me out or will it be the asylum for me?

Puzzledandpissedoff · Yesterday 09:10

MN usually bans trolls and abusive posters. It sounds like AidaP is really bad news, so why haven't MN banned them?

Perhaps because, like the rabid antisemites and others, people pay them a lot of attention and the clicks will please the advertisers?

Though there are countless wonderful posters on MN, it always confuses me that some don't seem to realise this isn't some sort of "protective" site for women or anyone else - it's a business, so will naturally act that way

I really can't get past threatening JKR with rape with "a splintery rolling pin".

"Proud and happy" allegedly women, and yet absolutely despising women. It's mindbending.

Regardless of all the other disturbing stuff, he's broken the rules and admitted it, so he should be banned, no? Otherwise what's the point of the rules. C'mon @MNHQ

@MNHQ doesn't exist.

You need to tag an actual mod.

That poster seems unwell

southerngirl10 · Yesterday 09:15

Is there a feminism section on this site? I just read the AIBU section.

Wordsmithery · Yesterday 09:15

From the look of OP's posts, AidaP is a mentally unwell Mumsnet user who is doing something weird with other people's posts and should almost certainly be banned.
Nothing particularly controversial there.
But to extrapolate AidaP's behaviour to the wider trans community is bigoted and nonsensical hysteria. AidaP does not represent trans people as a whole and their behaviour cannot be used to support arguments about trans matters.
Therefore bland statements such as 'and that's why we need our safe spaces' are meaningless in this context.
It would be lovely if any debate about trans people were reasoned and fair. This post is just another opportunity for people to spew hate.

Okay, so aidap comes across as an abhorrent human being, but do you think that the hysterical responses making up the majority of this thread are coming across well? Or are most of you channelling primary-school-“the teachers coming”-screamy-little-girl energy..?

..however, Im loving this “bill gates harvesting your dna” style explanation of aidap’s nefarious plot! 😂

Oh, the misogyny is coming form inside the house...

I spent a great deal of time immersed in social circles full of trans-identifying men, during a horrific period of my life where I was gaslit and traumatised by someone who thrust our lives into that space. I can tell you with no exaggeration that the level of fetishisation is not exaggerated, and that the amount of sexualisation of women (and the number of times I heard conversations about "panties" PUKE) was staggering.

What a bizarre thing to do when he is easily identified and linked to his threats. There must be many MN users who know who he is in RL. You'd think people who make such vile threats against women would be worried about their employers finding out and action being taken for bringing their organisation into disrepute.

Yes. But somehow I doubt he works. He seems to be on the internet all day/night. I have found by observation and their own admission that the vast majority of transwomen are unemployed. There is one who was an initial candidate for the Greens, despite claiming he is too disabled to get a job. He spends his days hanging in public spaces trying to start pro-trans/anti-women rallies. When he's not doing that, he's writing letters to politicians/companies every day and suing feminists. Also travels for cosmetic surgery. And is involved in a 'polycule'. But somehow, is prevented from even looking for work due to a 'disability'.

You could say the same about any specific abusive man - none of them represent men as a whole. We keep them all out.
