Where did all the Feminists go?

MN seems to have had a reorganisation of FWR when I was on holiday and me no-likey. Why do we now have a Rad fem section and Feminist light chat. So many of the dynamic, knowledgable and interesting posters have disappeared. I have to say that some of the more radical stuff posted really made me think about my views and re-align them. There doesn't seem to be much of that anymore. I am disappointed to be honest.

LRDtheFeministDragon · 22/09/2012 23:57

Well said, seeker.

amillionyears, you could make a fortune doing impressions...

BlameIt, my ex made me sit through ALL the twishite films before Christmas last year. We no longer talk. Grin

scottishmummy · 23/09/2012 00:09

that's a passive aggressive post
masquerading as concern
all 3 lines there you go

BlameItOnTheCuervo · 23/09/2012 00:09

I almost like watching them. its like scratching a scab

amillionyears · 23/09/2012 00:13

dont know what passive agressive is,but not agressive
I am genuinely concerned and care
and there are my three!

FrothyDragon · 23/09/2012 00:15

that wasn't passive aggressive
that was humourous
but feminists aren't supposed to be funny

LRDtheFeministDragon · 23/09/2012 00:17
Grin

frothy, you are a genius.

TheDoctrineOfSnatch · 23/09/2012 00:18

Exactly seeker. Exactly.

scottishmummy · 23/09/2012 00:21

genius?
to paraphrase someone else post
I agree

FrothyDragon · 23/09/2012 00:25

why thank you scottishmummy
that's the closest i'll ever get to a compliment from you
thank you again

TheDoctrineOfSnatch · 23/09/2012 00:27

Is this thread going to go
A bit like
That haiku one?

scottishmummy · 23/09/2012 00:27

too obsequious
it was a reply
words on the screen and all that

FrothyDragon · 23/09/2012 00:28

doctrine i suppose it could go
any which way it chooses
just so you know

youngblowfish · 23/09/2012 00:29

This is maddening.

First an entire section gets ripped to shreds and now SM's awful writing style takes over MN. Will someone wake me up from this nightmare of reading debates with people who have difficulties stretching their intellectual prowess to more than three lines of text? SM, have some pity on a mere lurker.

FrothyDragon · 23/09/2012 00:30

sorry
youngblowfish
:(

BlameItOnTheCuervo · 23/09/2012 00:30

words on a screen it may be
but I like mumsnet
so there.

scottishmummy · 23/09/2012 00:36

blowfish,like it or lump it
that's online forums for you
and mnhq intervened because fwr topic had gotten problematic

LRDtheFeministDragon · 23/09/2012 00:39

No, they really didn't.

This has already been explained to you, SM. Why do you persist in pretending you believe MNHQ did something they never in a million years would admit to doing?

SM, were you living in an alternate reality while all of this happened?
