Thank you

From the bottom of my heart. You amazing women give me life and hope. It was here I learned about the wonderful Magdalen Berns, and became a fully-fledged feminist. I don't post here much but I read everything. I don't know where I would be without you all!

I would like to add my thanks. I have learnt so much here.

Agree, its an amazing place.
I am seeing the censorship becoming much more intrusive though, I hope much needed political speech for women is not shut down here.

I agree that it seems we can't always say exactly how we feel on a subject. It's a shame, but I still feel that this is a great place and have directed many people to this board.

It’s great to know there are more of us out there - this place has been a saviour for my sanity

Yes We are not being unreasonable!

What a lovely thread.

I mainly lurk but would like to add my thanks too.

Adding my thanks.

I lurk here and on Twitter following amazing, intelligent feminist voices. I have had my eyes well and truly opened to the issues affecting women.

I peaked my best friend too drawing her attention to it. She works in safeguarding and writes about issues regarding mental health so she’s a brilliant ally.

Lovely to hear OP

Adding my thanks, I have learned so much, I still go back and read a thread I started ‘break it down for me’.

I mainly lurk but posted tonight...thank you all for giving me the courage (and knowledge) to speak up!

Well, my thread seems to have been deleted, seems a bit excessive when they could have just deleted the derailer's posts, but thank you to the many posters who posted on it, made me feel like I'd done the right thing, and massively calmed me down.

A number of you also made the very useful point that need to think about my audience - it's not necessarily the person I'm replying to, but the lurkers and others who may be reading.

Thank you

Your thread has been so useful to new posters!

Why did they delete your thread?! Because of a troll? Seems excessive. I wanted to know what your beardy woke-bro friend said

I'm so sorry DistantVorp. I was just about to post on your thread and give you a thumbs up - so I'll do it here.

FWR is a little oasis of sanity in truly mad world. Reading here is like taking off a tight pair of shoes.

Many thanks from another grateful mostly lurker too. As Suzanne Moore wrote: "There are more of us than you think..."

And @DistantVworp I hadn't quite finished reading your thread so I wasn't able to post that you were being what I'd call stunning and brave, so I'll say it here. Well done you.

I'd like to add my thanks too. I've learned so much on these boards and now happily and confidently hold my own in any FWR debate using the knowledge I've gained here. You women rock!

First post from a very long time lurker. I too would like to add my thanks to all you bloody amazing women, l have learned so much from you all and l believe there must be so many like me who are lurking and learning & sharing and raising awareness of this madness with friends and family.

Adding my name to the thanks. You have taught me, and in turn DH, lots and I am eternally grateful

Adding my thanks to all you amazing women. Ditto mainly lurk, but a couple of years lurking here has completely opened my eyes. So many wise, knowledgeable and patient posters. Thank you, vipers, and also thank you @JustineMumsnet for standing for our right to debate, and continuing to give us a space. Even if the depressingly heavy censorship makes it Swiss cheese at times, its value cannot be underestimated. Thank you.

That’s good to know!

Also a sincere thank you from me
Without this forum I would be happily assuming guide leaders were women
That those attending ranger camp were girls

I have very careful conversations with our union reps at work, and in all honesty, they just seem very ignorant around the erasure of women, and women's rights, and child safeguarding

So thank you
