is mumsnet a safe space for me?

[rexrabbit]

would you say mumsnet these days is a safe space for a non-transphobic lesbian with children to hang out?

But Sinner you've never picked me up, put me in the palm of your hand, taken cute photos then taken me home with you have you!!

Think you meant to post this on flouncers corner?!

The pet/animal topics can get a bit heated.

Mainly in the context of ‘I want to let my pet have babies’ threads.

Ah, I fondly recall the first time my arse was handed to me on a feminism thread. I think I suggested people be nicer when they disagreed.

Those were the days. I was genuinely shocked and struggling to process the idea that I didn’t have to ‘be nice’. Female socialisation etc.

So not safe, particularly not safe from dissent. Very educational though.

Possibly because the feminism board is a cesspit of transphobia. I only ended up here by mistake and I’m pissing off again now. Bye x

Go well.

I think Norman was hoping for a free dragon.

<Hands otter fire breathing Dragon.>I

Oh bugger!

Just shake it harder.

Oh my bad, that's just a kite.

<goes off to find fire breathing Dragon under the stairs>

Some people are sooooo entitled looking at you @SidewaysOtter

Au revoir

Try Reddit 😂

Having fun exploring the outer reaches of the gif set, Boily?

Dragons aside, I find it interesting that the only posters throwing petty insults around are the ones claiming NOT to be transphobic....
🧐

Of course it's safe. Nobody is going to reach through the screen and grab you. Or by 'safe', did you mean 'am I going to only encounter views I agree with?'. That's not what 'safe' means.

I'm sooooooo missing being able to post images! Does it show?

Funny that.

And so predictable.

I identify as a hedgehog and can be quite prickly, i am scared of dragons, i am a blood sister of boiled Beatles and that was all her fault.

I don't like terfs because they are super mean to transhogs, who are quite rare and sensitive.

lesbians come here quite often if that helps

Nobody is going to reach through the screen and grab you

Are you sure about that?

Where's the OP gone?

Reddit?

Wait I thought it was dinosaurs not dragons? ...

A lot of vitriol about all sorts of subjects tbh. You should check out the dog owners board, or the step parenting one!

Definitely not a safe space here.

What does this even mean?

Tolerant and inclusive attitudes often manifest as insults...

To look for their free fire breathing dragon?

I'd better not mention DH attaching dragon wings to the dog over on the Doghouse.

It can be a very dangerous place...
