Keith Houchen Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Any idea what the abbreviations mean? I'm guessing DP is domestic partner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members gmoney Posted May 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 7, 2017 I know DH is Dear Husband and DS is Dear Son etc. So I deduce DP is Double Penetration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Ah, that explains DS1.  I'm guessing if you have a DS9, you have a massive wormhole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted May 7, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 7, 2017 Mumsnet is just a massive room full of all the type of women you see at work endlessly nattering on about their annoying kids like they're the only ones who've had them. Anyone who isn't like that must have their head absolutely farting if they visit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the halal thing, I'm a filthy veggie, but it always annoys me when people try and make animal rights' arguments against Halal slaughter. Presumably they think a regular slaughterhouse is a lovely relaxing day out for the pigs. Just admit that you don't like them Muslims instead of trying to dress it up with loftier concerns, you're not fooling anyone anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Not to mention their concerns never include kosher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 8, 2017 Iit's not unreasonable that people could have genuine concerns about halal slaughter compared to normal methods. Although most do, a significant minority of halal slaughterhouses don't stun the animals. And throwing in kosher is just bullshit - it's not widely available and advertised at all. I've never seen it anywhere except is specificly Jewish areas. Their methods are undoubtedly less humane though, as they don't allow stunning of the animals full stop. Not every attack on Islamic practices is a veiled attack on all Muslims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Yeah but this is Facebook. Â The ones who post about halal do so in the majority to attack Muslims. Â There is a world of difference between criticising Islam and criticising Muslims. Â I believe the last RSPCA study showed 8% didn't involve stunning in halal slaughter but how many opposing it on Facebook know that, or refuse to believe it when pointed out? Â using kosher is to highlight hypocrisy, as does when the halal campaigners mention having a curry or a kebab. Â Yes there are legitimate concerns with Islamic practice but I'd say the majority on Facebook use it as a stick to beat Muslims with. If they genuinely gave a shit, they wouldn't eat meat.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted May 8, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted May 8, 2017 I've seen kosher food available in most London supermarkets, regardless of whether or not there's a Jewish community in the area. And I agree with Keith. One can argue using the face-value evidence, but that's kind of the point being argued: that genuine concerns regarding animal welfare are being subverted and used as a Trojan horse to get anti-Muslim racism through the back door and give said racists plausible deniability when called out on it.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted May 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 8, 2017 (edited) Fair points. I think the whole point of the Trojan horse is that it went in the front door, though Disagree with your statement that 'if they gave a shit they wouldn't eat meat at all' though, Keith.

Â Â Again anecdotal, maybe I need new friends, but I notice those ban the burqa types say so on the grounds of female oppression, then also post those "A gentleman looks after his lady" type gubbins.
