Twatwaffle Tuesday 4/11

Re: Twatwaffle Tuesday 4/11

  • @zetega I feel your pain.  I'm 19 weeks and I still haven't felt anything I can say for sure was baby movements.

  • I believe their board is participating in an hour of silence due to a recent loss.
  • If someone was sending her those nasty PMs, they should be ashamed. It sounds horrible. I can guarantee that I would join her in a fight against someone saying that racist crap to her. It is not an acceptable way to treat another person. 

    That said, my point was just that I would research before just assuming that a whole board was racist. Not that they should investigate her or something. I'm not trying to get involved in a war against October or say that they shouldn't want her in their group. I'm glad she found a group she likes. I've just never seen any racism here and I don't want to be known as a racist board when the label isn't warranted. If I see racism on this board, I will leave too. 
    To be fair to October, I don't think very many people saw her initial intro post. Only one person responded to it and only a couple people had liked it (now more have). Also, I mainly skim intro posts and never really get to the end, so many could have done that too.

  • This is all just bizarre. Racists? Hell, I don't know (or care) what race anyone on here is unless I've seen a picture...

  • Woops didnt see the whole silence thing
  • Now I feel bad for bringing this to everyone's attention during their hour of silence. Maybe I should go post a candle too...

  • @mrsmarygs I didn't mean to suggest that all of October thinks we're a bunch of racists. I don't think most of them saw her post (or at least read it close enough to make that association). I just meant that I would personally do the research before assuming a whole group of people was racist and I hope the rest of TB would act the same way, so that we don't get a reputation we don't deserve.

    I feel like this is more of an assumptive racism, I guess she thought I was saying she shouldn't be having sex that often because she was Muslim but I never said she shouldn't have sex that often. Nothing to do with being Muslim and also I think I wouldn't want to have sex that often because ow? I mean if she really did get a PM that had that nastiness in it there needs to be proof otherwise she's fabricating stories against us to validate her accusation of us being racists 
    Assuming no one here said anything that shes saying they said, it's libel. 
  • Yikes, just read through the randoms post on Oct'17. If someone did say that to her, that's terrible. I really don't see anyone on here saying something so cruel though. It really isn't fair to accuse the whole board for being racist...

    And they said they want to go to war with us? Are we 5? Lol...I thought we're supposed to be having children not acting like them...

  • @HollyGolightly09 Right?? I thought about when that 1 group came in and crashed our boards with crazy gif's? Was that a board war? Haha I have no idea...

  • @laceyc1020 i think that is a board war....
  • @labby18 I'm all for gif parties....now that I've figured them out!! lol! But that was crazy. I couldn't sift through the stuff I actually wanted to read on those boards and then the board got shut down

    And my FFTC: I think circumcision is a perfectly fine topic for TB. This board does a pretty good job of stating their opinions without the drama llamas coming out, or bashing others choices, so I think we could discuss this just fine too.
    Me too. This is a pregnancy/parenting board. These are the things we can talk about and gain perspective outside the norm in our own families. We're all grown ups who can be respectful.

    No one here has any recent experience with Trojans, so this could be a problem... :mrgreen:
    Well, if a certain poster was still here, she could tell us all about her college days when they went through a box of 36 condoms every 2-3 days.


  • And I lurked their circumcision thread - we could definitely do that here. Theirs was really interesting, and there is (so far) only one sanctimony pony.
