that way, when I post feminist rants on FB you can all click 'like' and it will look to my non-feminist friends like feminism is clearly a force to be reckoned with.

Plus, I love MN feminists and want to be mates with more of you.

Most of my friends know I'm addicted to on MN, but I have a couple of work colleagues there too and would rather they didn't twig and search ....

ah ok, I have always assumed that chat names were off-limits but general references to Mumsnet were fine - will avoid those in future if they are likely to give away anyone's MNer-ness.

Oh, no, don't let me stop you if you want to talk about MN! It's my nickname I really don't want to publicize.

My husband knows I use MN, but no-one else does. I'm a bit unusual amongst my close friends as I'm the only one who is married and the only one who'd like babies in the reasonably near future, so MN is rather separate from our day-to-day lives. However, with the number of people who post on here, I have more than a slight suspicion that there must be people I know in RL on here too, so I shouldn't mind references to it!

sethstarkaddersmackerel · 13/01/2011 15:14

oh I just mean I won't go on your wall and go 'Did you see that thread on MN?'

if I put general stuff about MN on my status no-one is going to be able to connect it with you.

the hard bit IMO is remembering not to call people by their chat names.... I'm sure I've done it once or twice. Blush

JaneS · 13/01/2011 15:21

Thanks seth. Don't worry about it too much with me, I'm being a bit daft. And if you did call me by my chat name, I'd only have to change it and deny all knowledge. Fortunately mostly people on here call me LRD, which isn't searcheable.

HerBeatitude · 13/01/2011 15:24

oh yes don't worry too much, it is mainly my chat name I don't want disclosed... or maybe references to what I've said here.

Another one who has no idea who anyone is apart from seth and jessin

Happy to be any feminist's friend, and vice versa!

Coleysworth · 13/01/2011 17:57

My facebook display pic is a fish (a coley to be precise Grin) if anyone is wondering who the hell I am on their FB news feed.

I know who is from MN but can't remember who's who in terms of nicknames

ElephantsAndMiasmas · 13/01/2011 18:21

I'm a bit scared of linking up facebook and MN. And since I barely go on there anyway I probably won't join in with this at the moment. Nearer to MWR though will someone organise a group like they did last time? You could make up a silly title and post the title on here? Or someone could PM me?

Have you all made friends with each other without knowing who's who? Or with knowing?

Oh, yes, I'd rather people in RL didn't know I go on MN! Everyone would think I'm pregnant, you see.

I am looking forward to feminist-togetherness of FB. Lots of my friends - well, one of them - is just... Grrr. But I cannot defriend her because she is my housemate and it isn't worth the hassle for four more months.

hellymelly · 14/01/2011 23:00

Count me in too.

sethstarkaddersmackerel · 17/01/2011 11:39

have pmed you, Seeker & HellyMelly.

UmYeahLikeTotally · 17/01/2011 15:40

Can I join in?? I'd love some feminist support too, might make me braver on the things I post on there

sethstarkaddersmackerel · 17/01/2011 16:49

Of course! Have pmed you.

UmYeahLikeTotally · 18/01/2011 12:35

I think I've added everyone....my initials are NC. Anyone I've missed, feel free to add me! Smile
