Have Mumsnet dropped their "woman centred" logo?

[Bi11yOneMate]

It might have happy eons ago and I've only just noticed - but where is the logo with mums doing all sorts of things?
And if it's been dropped - why? Pressure?

I’ve just noticed this too!

I noticed an emphasis somewhere on parents not mums

Simply can't guess why 🤔🤔

On Twitter the logo is a mum with a baby. But the logo with lots of women has vanished. Shame!

This site is questioning it's identity. Stop prying.

It doesn't centre men, so of course it had to go.
Brave new world. Men can be anything they say they are, women are still second class citizens.

I think there was a discussion about this before it went.

I remember when the logo was adopted. As i understand it, it was based on "Charlies angels" a 70's american police drama/comedy with rather glamourous female detectives all working for a lecherous old goat called charlie. Hardly a feminist image when you think about it. Yes women can go out there and be cops but they still need to be looked after by a man. I was never really comfortable with it as the mnet logo.

stop prying

Did you just misgender Mansnet?

What does that even mean?

Because, despite its name, not all of us are mums wielding babies and bottles?

LEM, I agree, I hated the logo.
The timing of the change is interesting though.

Was just joking sorry

Anyone got a pic of the new one? Still looks the same on mine

The logo was pretty cheesy and dated. Also didn’t translate well for mobile responsive designs as the detail would be lost when reducing the scale of the image.

Not unusual for organisations to rebrand, and the current trend generally is for simple, text based logos.

This is why it was never appropriate

This

I don't like it. It's not a text based logo, it's just a word. They've chosen a font, that's all.

I liked the old one. It had lot's of women on it. I don't know any other logo with lots of women on it.

The logo had women doing loads of different tasks/jobs under the common identity of mums. Like a lot of mums IRL do. Charlie’s Angels is bollocks but that’s only one interpretation and most younger people wouldn’t even make that connection. What’s wrong with a logo presenting women doing jobs in connection with MN?

I used to love Charles Angels. Me and my sister used to rush home from gymnastics club to watch it. It was the same year that punks were in the news and we had monster ladybirds and standpipes in the street. In those days for me it was empowering to watch.

Charlie's Angels was hardly a good role-model for women in the 21st century & as Justine keeps on stating, it's a parenting site, not just for women.

I thought it was funny floorplan

Me too.

I didn't like the logo. I think they should have replaced it with something more modern though. It is interesting about the timing. Maybe they will change the website name from mumsnet.

Charlies Angels style logo is still on the app.
