Is Feminism Chat no longer listed in Active Threads?

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Because it looks like that to me. Have I missed something?

It's not.

There is a lot of pressure to stop women talking amongst themselves about things which impact women and girls. I assume they want us to return to discussing shopping and laundry or something.

Laundry threads are always batshit crazy

I can't do femininity, I can't! Please don't make me

Should we all talk about zoflora or summat?

There is definitely a zerf on this board so talk of zoflora may cause issues.

I’ll talk about cats a bit, but not all the time.

I think it’s a bit off to call this place Mumsnet but not actually allow us to discuss womens issues.

I gather that they’re experiencing pressure from the advertisers poor souls must be really torn money always wins

I don't even know what zoflora is. Is it like some kind of margarine?

We had a marketing person on here a while ago. She said: you know who makes pretty much all the buying decisions? Women.

Are you terf enough.

At the risk of sounding like thought police and for those of us fed up of nonsense labels and begging for an end to them, do you think you could consider a more a more amusing pun to use?

Happy to have an arm wrestling competition over this if you like, I won the RN ladies arm wrestling championship in 1983 and I still have the trophy to prove it.

Don't knock Zoflora, just don't, DON'T be that person.

We were away 2 nights, came back and we had been hit by about 20 tom cats who had busted through the catflap. Zoflora has goddess like status in this household.

....the bastards even wee'd on my pillow

There are fake threads about men climbing trees now for all to see and enjoy. Sod women's rights, sod the fact we are losing autistic children to a cult that tells them their bodies are wrong, men....in....trees.....

I'm zorry i zoffended you.

Zure, Zure you are.....

Zoflora is a type of margarine that is non binary.

Does it identify as butter?

You know perfectly well why MNHQ has taken FWR out of "Active" No one at MNHQ is stopping you talking about trans issues (as is amply demonstrated by the numerous threads).

I couldn't understand why my mum kept buying me plant food when I didn't have plants. It was 5 years before I actually discovered thats not what Zoflora is.
I still haven't opened any of them though.

My comment wasn't really aimed at MN more the pressure all women's spaces are facing from outside groups wanting to mute the discussions. I don't specifically know why MNHQ has taken FWR out of active, they've been fairly vague on the details as far as I can tell.

Ooh odd socks you probably have archive limited edition zoflora, oh zes.

you know when you don't know if you should laugh or cry? I think mumsnet has done amazing in allowing a platform for women to discuss this issue. I think it needs toned down, not because the issue isn't relevant, but because people are becoming so frustrated they are angry? angry words are no good. So far in my life ive only ever encountered three trans people, all MTF, two had major issues and the other I'm yet to find out. I'm weary for women's rights, but at the same time I recognise humanity is not black and white. Sex is binary though, with a tiny percentage of exceptions. I get pissed off when clueless men/boys claim to be women as they don't have a clue, especially as when I'm in pain with a period, or taking care of my kids when their dad just left all responsibility and that's socially acceptable, but a part of me feels sorry for them as masculine expectations are ridiculous. Why didn't a mens movement to destroy stereotypes evolve when feminism did, why are we always expected to lead the way for change? we carry them, we wipe their arses, we feed them, we teach them to be men, as their fathers have been working or absent, why do they not take responsibility for themselves? why do they need babied and protected by us? why do trans women feel protected by our toilets and spaces? do they have mummy issues? why do women have to sort everything out, I'm bored of this, I really am, grow the fuck up men, tell men yourselves, "I'm not a fighter, I like pink, I want to dance and do crafts and other things" stop pretending to be us, I will never believe anybody feels like a woman until they suffer cramps, or childbirth or miscarriage or that feeling you might be pregnant and its your own responsibility, I'm really confused by all of this, but can see the political agenda and funding behind it, ffs
