Is MILF an acceptable term?

I think it could give Hartlepool a bad name, and considering the sitting MP has just resigned because of sexual harrassment allegations.

Hartlepool's name has survived executing a monkey as a French spy.

I wouldn’t trust the judgment of anyone who publicly used that term.

I find it hard to think that any long term partner of any merit would be tweeting his desire to f*ck other women.

I know this man has done a number of things I do actually approve of, as well as things I dont, but really? Wonder what his long-term partner thought about it at the time.

Perhaps his long term partner knew very well that he wouldn't actually do it?

He seems to have been at a dinner party when he sent his tweet
Well if any of my guests were posting on Twitter during a dinner party, that would be the last time they came round to my house!

I must say DILF was new to me. The whole subject might be better summed up if Dad was replaced by Father....

Grumpa ??

Yes, MD.

Meanwhile it has occurred to me that women with chidren who re-marry (or even marry for the first time; it seems quite common nowadays for people to get married when they've already been together for several years and have children) have been MILFs to somebody.

I also wonder if those who don't find the term offensive know that they have been MILFs to somebody, sometime, even if nothing came of it ?

I don't find the idea or the term intrinsically offensive. I think even happily married/partnered men might think it of someone without causing anyone any harm; happily married women ditto of the male version, though I agree that using it publicly, such as a in the tweet that got Williams into trouble, is risqué.

But it was years ago. Who's to say he hasn't moved on since then and wouldn't do such a thing now? Also, he has apologised. As I've mentioned on another thread somewhere, people come across as very unforgiving. It's not that bad a misdemeanour.

Neither acronym was familiar, though I certainly know more now than I ever wanted to Grumppa! ???
