What I would like to ask is how exactly do you find so much spare time to chat on these boards about earning between £100k and £250k when you have five children of your own and also what seems must be a very demanding full time job?

I have just one child and a very part time job and this will be about the only 5 minutes I get to luxuriate on the internet?

"There's a very interesting issue here, isn't there? Ypu get women brought up to be very submissive who go around bolstering each other's egos all the time - you all know the drill - oh what a lovely dress that is (when you hate it) or isn't your husband awful, all that nicey nicey let's pretend we love each other, swarmy, marmy lovey dovey stuff, never say a critical word because we are women and instead we criticse each other in gossip to friends and we never debate or disagree or if we do disagree we dress it up because we've been trained to hold back... "

Heathcliffscathy · 13/11/2006 22:48

this is like a witch hunt .
Lay off singling out individual contributors.

Well done Xenia on your dignified response to this undignified rubbish.

Judy1234 · 13/11/2006 23:06

I just quickly looked at that linke - the V person. I don't think I could spell and punctuate like that.

You can buy software programs that allow you to compare language and words used. They've applied them to some works allegedly by Shakespeare but they're also useful in investigations too.

I have not posted as anyone else. Variety is the spice of life. Most people say more about themselves when they criticise others than about the person they criticise. I always feel the same when I hear women doing down their husbands too. Perhaps we're all best known by our deeds, not our words anyway at the end of the day.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 13/11/2006 23:07

Judge Flounce was different - for many reasons.

tamum · 13/11/2006 23:13

No, I can completely accept that we don't need a computer program to see that V's posting style is very different from yours, Xenia

catsmother · 13/11/2006 23:19

To be absolutely fair, I second Queenmummy's 1st post on this topic.

I also "know" (from another site) who Xenia is ..... like QM said, Xenia outed herself, and with a bit of nosey surfing, it was easy to discover who she is in real life.

I certainly don't always agree with what she writes (here or "there") but I don't actually think I can ever recall her writing anything with the intention of being malicious, and though it seems she has the unfortunate ability to rub other people up the wrong way on a fairly regular basis (me included on occasion if I'm honest), Xenia has (elsewhere at least) devoted what must amount to quite a bit of time replying to others asking for advice/help.

I suppose what I'm saying is that although Xenia lives (apparently) in rather a different world to many people (here anyway) ..... I do actually feel that her heart is (usually) in the right place. Though tact isn't her greatest trait, I really do think it's not a deliberate attempt on her part to be mean.

I also know what she looks like and she's most definitely an attractive woman !

(And I am a regular ..... though haven't read the thread which has led onto this one).

omgtherestwo · 13/11/2006 23:21

offs will someone change names an "oust her"!!

expatinscotland · 13/11/2006 23:28

Emailing you, too, JJ.

hamstermunker · 13/11/2006 23:30

BLimey, I thought this thread was all about Xenia going back to work and an MNer starting it to say good luck (being where it's posted and the title and all).

How wrong can you be?!

Love the angry villagers, VVV

JoolsToo · 13/11/2006 23:31

WHAT'S GOING ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN?

expatinscotland · 13/11/2006 23:31

You never took shit from me about that, cod!

hamstermunker · 13/11/2006 23:34

Jools, will join you in that [blank look]

Judy1234 · 13/11/2006 23:35

"I also know what she looks like and she's most definitely an attractive woman ! "

I like that bit..... thanks...... (..hiding remnants of baked potato and hot chocolate drink as I type...)

VeniVidiVickiQV · 13/11/2006 23:36

Dunno much either really, except that a load of folk are piling in.

Hunker, have I told you lately that I love you?

And you Jools?

I bloody love you all.
