I saw a new acronym created yesterday. It was a special moment, and I have to admit a likkle tear formed in my cynical eye.

It was MoB. (Mother of Boys)

True LRD and AF.
I recall being clueless about asking about dd being a Highly Sensitive Child, and a google said 'MN'. But that's for mums, isn't it??
Unless a bloke is used to being around women, the initial twattery can be seen as just that.
Winnicas - I'd disagree - I have Rel. hidden but from what I recall, men's circs get treated quite differently to women's.

Winnicas · 21/08/2013 19:54

hmm, I dunno. I've seen men get some really great advice and can think of a few threads where they are told that their DW or DGF is bang out of order.

Winnicas · 21/08/2013 19:55

Oh yes, Mother Of Boys.

Sheshelob · 21/08/2013 19:58

Wow.

When their children get older, do they become MOOBs?

YoniBottsBumgina · 21/08/2013 20:05

Do MoBs often refer to SMOGs? (Smug mother of girls) Since girls are innately well behaved and calm whereas boys are little whirlwinds, apparently.

TeiTetua · 21/08/2013 20:39

Oh, but they are. Snips and snails and puppydog tails, we all know that.

As a marzipan lover, I fear for my cakes

I agree. Is it supposed to carry so much weight. This is how it really is girls.

Libertine73 · 21/08/2013 21:04

Can you make marzipan???

Pan · 21/08/2013 21:12

No you can't make marzipan. It involves unicorns and rainbows.

crumpledinside · 21/08/2013 21:14

You can make your own using a coffee bean grinder to grind the almonds. Then mix with icing sugar. You get to choose your own coarseness.

I like it coarse.

Chubfuddler · 21/08/2013 21:18

I do enjoy some quality lizardsplaining though. "As a male" is a handy heads up that you are about to be thoroughly patronised. Especially when they purport to speak for their wife.

Chubfuddler · 21/08/2013 21:19

What are you if you have boys and girls? Apart from fucking knackered?

Where's my smug?

Sheshelob · 21/08/2013 21:19

My wife is still livid.

Chubfuddler · 21/08/2013 21:24

Occupy her with some marzipan making.

Sheshelob · 21/08/2013 21:31

She hates marzipan because everyone knows only feminists love a crushed nut.

crumpledinside · 21/08/2013 21:40

Dude, I don't merely crush nuts, I grind them into a puree.

Sheshelob · 21/08/2013 21:44

You've made my wife cry, crumpled.

I hope you are proud of yourself.

It would have been useful to know a certain poster was a man when I offered [snogs] BlushGrin.

Sheshelob · 21/08/2013 21:57

My wife says that hearing a feminist talk about sandwiches makes her sad because feminists don't understand the importance of sandwiches. Or blow jobs.
