My son stands and waits at the bus stop with his girlfriend until she gets on the bus to go home every single night. He is 13 & already treats his little girlfriend better than I've been treated by men I have loved I'm doing a good job with him so far #proudmummy

My son has taken a little Year 7 under his wing this week This boy is very shy & timid Jamie saw that he never gets a go on the computer in lunch break So, today my son sat at a computer & waited till this boy arrived & then got up to let him use the computer all lunch break.

@scottygb Sky should take lessons from BBC. This is how you deal with minor interruptions instead of being patronising and condescending

Some man has just pretended to get on a bus, really slowly, just so a woman who was running could make it to the bus stop. Then, as soon as she safely got on, he stepped back off it to wait for his own bus. I love this. Watching out for other people & doing a good thing. ❤

I'd like to say that all three xenophobic wankers are huge football fans. One a professional, one a huge fan and one a junior football coach. Says a lot more about football than foreigners! Sad really

@TimesNewRachel Mine is when my mum died 5 years ago I woke up in the middle of the night to find my son, aged 8 sitting on my bed watching me. I asked if he was OK & he said, "I'm staying awake in case you wake up really sad & need an emergency hug from me"

Ironically, if urban landscapers had planted female trees instead, neither pollen, nor unsightly seeds would have been an issue. Hundreds of female trees would have been sterile & tidy without any pollen because female trees don't make fruit or seeds without males around 6/

I am really liking men asking other men to check & see their friends aren't like this Start conversations with male friends about this topic & see what their response is Too many still about Men need to stop policing women's bodies & start policing each other's entitlement

I had arranged to meet him for a date on Sunday. Then he started on the creepy comments. So it really scares me. What if I'd turned up wearing what I think is normal clothes and he thinks I'm asking for it? Because I have hair and a body

To all people blaming Grace for being murdered because she travelled alone or dated on Tinder, you are part of the problem. Firstly you disrespect her family by saying this You disrespect her choices as a woman You disrespect every victim who didn't deserve to die #GraceMillane

My daughter is studying animal behaviour at college. So, I asked her why she thought our cat was behaving in a certain way. "Because he's a dickhead", she replied. #Caturday

Women have always been pioneering and inventing things. Women have also been sidelined and forgotten. This is only a tiny example Fighting sexism and often racism too. Let's not forget just a few of these women who have made the world a much better place for us to live in.

@DailyMirror Poor guy. No public toilets open. Looks like he's in the middle of fields & not in a busy high street. And being stalked by someone taking photos of him. Unnecessary

@ITVCentral Literally the same stupid advice I was given when my daughter attempted suicide. She then went on to use a key, a sharpened stick and then took pills. Luckily all failed. Deal with the actual problem, not this box ticking, condescending, useless nonsense.

My daughter has come home from college & told me that she has signed up to volunteer to tutor children from low income families who can't afford that extra help. I'm so proud of her.

#TweetYourNonPrincessyLittleGirlDreams As a little girl, I dreamed of being a Superhero able to fly and rescue people. I am a firefighter. I bring my own ladder to do my own rescues. Still working on the flying bit, but living the superhero dream 😊

@everywhereist When I tweeted about my dying mum pulling a prank on my dad & getting him to water plastic plants, I got death threats, messages from men saying they were glad my mum had died, that we were c**nts, that my dad was an idiot. I got over 300 messages from men like that on one tweet

When a woman is murdered, the first people suspected & questioned are usually the husband/ex boyfriends etc Yet how come when women are alive and saying they've been abused by their husband/ex boyfriends, they aren't believed?

Saw a woman parked on the side of the road just chuck some litter out of the car. I turned & gave her my "WHAT THE FUCK you filthy pig?" face. She got out of the car, picked the litter up and threw it in the bin. My "WTF you filthy pig" face has magic powers

@nowthisnews "She's like a wounded gazelle separated from the herd. She's ripe for the taking" This is predator/locker room/rape talk. They see a vulnerable woman and they look to take advantage. They also know they get away with it because so many are doing it. They enable each other

My son told me his gf hates tomato ketchup Everytime she's told an ex boyfriend, they've always tried to force her to eat it Holding her mouth open & forcing her My son said, "I don't understand why boys do that" Power & control starts early Discuss it with your sons Early
