I honestly don't care about being 'identified'

I had my FB post deleted and then my MN post deleted. Because I could be identified?

I was quite happy to be identified. Again someone who isn't me reported me.

I don't mind being identified.

Maybe you should.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:23

I do feel like I'm being shut down.

I do not care about being identified.

I do not care.

Why?

I read your Facebook post on the other thread.

It was not offensive. It was just the truth.

Facebook is now implementing censorship and it's all very Orwellian.

Send MNHQ a message telling them just that. Let's see how they respond.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:25

My other thread has been deleted. It's a bit mad.

I really admire you and your posts. Keep up the good work and please never stop spreading the truth. Men have fooled the masses into thinking they're the oppressed ones and to see someone so openly reject that insane claim is so refreshing❤️

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:28

@MNHQ why did you delete my last thread? I didn't ask you to. I'm not worried about being outed. The reason given for deleting it was 'outing'. That wasn't my fear.

It might be in the mnhq rules somewhere, duty of care or GDPR or something maybe?

Shedbuilder · 15/06/2020 17:33

Good for you. I'm out to friends and not particularly bothered at the thought of being identified either. Nothing you said on FB was offensive. Please keep posting.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:34

It's a rum situation if a woman feels that she can't identify herself to speak for women on a site for women.

I obviously missed your threads, op. I'm beginning to get a glimmer of what you're talking about. Fair play to you.

UnimpressiveUsername · 15/06/2020 17:43

I saw your last thread. I could read the name of someone who commented on your Facebook, who I guess was your friend? Perhaps it was for that persons benefit it was deleted.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:48

Really? I don't think she'd be worried about identification. She's worked for women's Refuge for 30 years. I was confused by her response, but I'm not sure she's bothered about being identified.

The problem is, someone could easily link to somebody else public FB posts, claim to be them and who would know? They could then post any old shite and be assumed to be that person.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:50

And it's utterly mad that women centred women should be worried about identification.

OP posts:
ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 17:51

It's FB. Who actually gives a shit?

OP posts:
UnimpressiveUsername · 15/06/2020 17:54

It’s just a suggestion. I guess Mumsnet have no idea about whether she minds being identified or not, so would rather be cautious. You could try posting it again without her name.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 18:07

Ok. Without any id.

I honestly don't care about being 'identified'

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 18:10

I've had an email from HQ regarding identification. I don't mind being identified. I don't care. But hey-ho!

I really have nothing to hide.

OP posts:
boatyardblues · 15/06/2020 18:22

I guess MNHQ don’t know whether you’re posting from your FB account or trying to rain down shit on someone else.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 18:37

True. I could be a malicious git.

That's the horror of SM isn't it? The interwebs are full of fibbers.

I'm not one of them though. I'm very open. I always thought truth and honesty were the best options. What's the point otherwise?

Really.

Use your own name if you like but I don't think its a god idea to name women who work in shelters. Not everyone here is a woman or here with good intentions; IDK if you saw the link that was ''accidentally'' posted the other day but it was from one of the alt right trolls that hang around pretending to be women who are pro trans. They'd gone to some trouble to invent a back story for themselves.

irisnotadaff · 15/06/2020 19:22

I like you!

ILikeyourHairyHands · 15/06/2020 19:29

True. My friend no longer does as she's retired. I know that many people post with bad intentions. Which is why I feel really strongly about being honest and fine about being identified. I know many women can't. But I can. I do think if you can you should. Otherwise who is? If people feel that they can't be identified it makes it something shameful, it's not. And the more women that stand up and say here I am, the more will join.

Which is why I'm always fine about being recognised. I'm in a fortunate position where it won't affect me. Well maybe it will, but I couldn't really give a shit if it does. Better that than the alternative.
