having worked in a psychiatric hospital for thirty years I quickly realised there are more on the outside than on the inside :-D

"Much as I dislike trolls and such I hold no candle for many of the campaigns of mumsnet and the po faced feminist brigade either."

Fortunately we po-faced feminists care not a jot for what you think, Rollo.

We will continue to demand that domestic violence is taken seriously by the police and tough sentences handed out to abusers; that rape victims are treated sympathetically by the police and the courts and that women receive equal pay for equal work.

And obviously we will continue to have absolutely no sense of humour so that men can feel free call us names.

He mentioned mumsnet campaigns, Sheila.

Oh, OK, although he said 'many' rather than 'all'. I'm not a Mum so I've never looked at it but have heard some people call it vile and unfriendly.

There are some deeply unpleasant people making deeply unpleasant personal attacks on many sites one would not expect to find them really.

I will include mumsnet as it has been mentioned, Moneysaving expert ( who knew people would be so nasty on what is essentially a 'help' site!) , a now defunct site for 'older people', let alone the weirdest of the weird who used to be on FR lol.

But probably not 'trolls' as per the current definition.
