No different to the view on here that 'are all women potential mentalists'Rude-boy said:
As I see it, being someone who never got involved in the cross posts which kicked it all off (I think I was having a bad week at work at the time!)...
There were a number of posters who ‘discovered’ mumsnet and found a number of topics which were ‘interesting’ on a sexual topic, and other topics where there were the dregs of the female gene pool posting utter carp about men and cars. As a result there were a number of people who joined mumsnet and commented – there were also a few “Shall I post this up” type comments made here and others were egged on. A number of mumsneters joined here and commented and so it evolved over about 12-18 hours.
Then the people in charge of Mumsnet got their knickers in a twist as they found that there are a lot of very bright and sharp people on here who were tearing in to a number of topics and posts where people were saying some very misguided and ill-informed drivel. There were also a few minor trolls from people over here and vice versa.
The problem came when Mumsnet decided to pull the ‘I’m bigger than you’ card. The Mumsnet powers that be couldn’t handle the situation themselves and so basically got in contact with PH Towers wailing and moaning about how wrong and unfair it was of this minority interest site to attack such a bastion of truth, honesty and decency as their site and that it should be stopped. Oh and by the way we have the ear of a lot of very important people. I am not sure quite how blatant it was but I understand that there was a very clear inference as to what their next move would be and that it wouldn’t be good for Haymarket.
Therefore the Mumsneters who were as guilty as anyone from this site of what occurred were let off scot free and PH was left in a position where those in authority get twitchy rings every time they see the site’s name mentioned.
All very sad, but then what do you expect from people like those in charge at mumsnet who seem to think that because they run a website for mothers they can push their own personal political agendas, often based on poor and inaccurate information, and pass them off as the views of their X,ooo strong membership. But of course their website is at pains to point out that they don’t have a political agenda, just before it lists their political campaigns...
I have just dared venture onto the mumsnet site for the very first time. I never realised it was 'Mumsnet Limited' and it would seem that running a website like that is very profitable these days after just checking said companies accounts.

Not really. I've seen almost every woman I know well have 'an attack of the Mental' at some point. I don't know any blokes who have raped anyone.
Have a read of the thread on mumsnet. The general opinion there seems to be, has a man ever touched or looked at you? He's a rapist.Kids, kids. It is just not worth it.
All that will happen is that you will have a bit of fun, others will join in, someone will overstep the rules of common sense and decency and Mumsnet will link it back to here and Garlick will get another "Control your children." call/e-mail.
This will then lead to sin binnings, and bannings and the whole merry cycle will start again.
Walk away. All you are doing is arguing with the imbecilic friends of the playground bully.

These people are f
king aholes. I've only read a section of one thread, a women keeps turning into her drive from the road. Impatient knobjockeys beep at her is the general tone of the story.
My thoughts. If your consitantly being beeped at by different people at different times, its not all of them, its you. Speed the fk up.
Mumsnet thoughts. They are knobjockys and I quote "Just think fk IT and ignore everyone!" 
This is serious advice, what a set of tts!

Hang on, we can use this to our advantage - they know where Garlick lives. Our demands are as follows:1. Get rid of the swear filter
2. NSFW calendar for 2012 of the ph team for next year - proceeds to the nymphomaniac ex-cheerleader rehabilitation centre
3. That'll do for now
Disclaimer: just kidding, we'd be soundly beaten to within an inch of our worthless lives over there.
"Are all men potential rapists"
Yes, but then everybody is. Including women.
Is it bad that I read threads such as:
http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/womens_rights/1317429-...
And start chuckling?
