A mother's post on a popular community forum has sparked outrage after she questioned whether a man watching a children's film alone was "odd".

The woman shared her experience on the "Am I Being Unreasonable?" forum on Mumsnet.com, a UK-based community site, while watching the new live-action Lilo and Stitch with her daughter. She noticed a man sitting alone, "munching on snacks".

The vast majority of commenters slammed the woman's post, calling her judgmental and unnecessary. One person replied, "Man watches film alone whilst eating snacks - normal. Someone goes to the cinema with their child and sits on their phone b------- about the other cinema goers - you're the weird one."

Another person wrote, "Live and let live. Maybe it holds special memories for him because of his grown children, maybe he knows someone in the film, maybe he's a journalist or maybe he just wanted to go to the cinema on his day off. There are so many depressing things going on around the world, let a man enjoy a film without fear of judgement and be grateful you have your daughter to share these experiences with."
