Just out of curiosity not intended to be political.

In my mind this place is by and large male. I've heard it described as mum's net for men.

So I wondered if it really is 99+ percent men as I imagine or how does the split sit?!

Mumsnet isn't just for women incidentally. It's a very good parenting resource for dads too.

Outside of that, also gives you a good insight into women's brains. Quite scary sometimes, but it can also enhance your relationship(s) as their actions make a bit more sense considered that way.

Yeah you make a good point and I'd go further than that. I'm not even a parent but I've found it helpful for things or just to have a nose around! The names a little misleading but it has evolved since it's inception I guess.

'Other' is actually quite offensive. The remaining 70 genders shouldn't be bundled together and made to feel less important just because they are less common.

Women probably have more pressing matters to occupy their down time than sitting for hours waiting to ambush a poster who hours earlier dismissed one of your posts as " pea-brained drivel ".
