thirst trap facebook reels?

You don't want an "unaided opinion" - whatever that is. You seem just to want people to validate you.

And what has people's age got to do with it?

He doesn't need to be clicking on that content or actively searching for it. If he merely pauses over an image or video as he scrolls through, the algorithm will notice and send more of that type of content. To be fair, there's a lot of it out there. Sex sells.

I'd be highly surprised if my DP didn't pause over those types of images. I frequently stop scrolling to watch a hunky guy chopping wood, sometimes with his shirt off! As humans, we find certain aesthetics appealing.

But so what?! For the life of me I can't understand why the reels on his social media is such a huge issue if you trust your partner. It smacks of being incredibly insecure.

Being together 24/7 outside work doesn’t sound particularly healthy, even leaving aside all the other stuff. Do you ever see friends, or family without him? Does he?

@OneTC 🤣 c'mon now, Sarah Michelle Geller vs Jensen Ackles?

Buffy (boring)

YABVVU!

@PietariKontio Yes you're right, I was just making the point that 'engaging' with something just requires letting it play or pausing your scrolling long enough that it will assume you're reading/looking closely.

Eg - I love Supernatural so fb thinks I'll like any series similar so goes thru phases of vampire diaries (never seen it, don't care), Buffy (boring) & things related to those actors - I don't engage in any way at all so it will switch to another series & I'm flooded with that, but all along the same lines. But it works off the fact I will watch Supernatural reels, the only way that stops is if I stop. So if he's still getting thirst traps & is using fb regularly, it's cos he looks at them

Op head over to reddit love after porn subrredit . Check our omar minwhalla secret sexual basement/integrity abuse.

Just because something is considered normal and common doesn't make it something you have to tolerate in your relationship.

That only woks if you're engaging with something, if you engage with nothing then the alogrithm is dumb and will just keeping sending options based on what it does know about you, e,g you're a bloke, so cars and women

What have I just read 😂😂

I got what I thought was a cute monkey video in my reels. It wasnt, it was monkeys abusing and killing monkey babies. It only took that one video and I got loads in the same vein. I have to block them as they come up without looking. They've pretty much stopped now.

It sounds as if you have far too much time on your hands. You can't keep him under lock and key after work, or police his Facebook like that OP. Leave him alone or you'll drive both of you nuts.

The algorithm isn't bugged, if they are still there he's watching them. It doesn't require you to interact (click, like, comment), just to pause your scrolling. Try it yourself with adverts, just linger over a particular ad/product a few times & it will tailor around those before long. By the same token you can manipulate it to show just want you want.

It will randomly throw entirely new things at you to guage interest, but it will go away if you don't watch them & scroll right past.

I'm a straight woman and all I get is naked young women and skincare stuff.
Not interested in either!
If he's looking for this content then yeah he's a sleaze and wouldn't be for me but the algorithm isn't to be trusted.

OP, just to clarify, does he know you are checking his phone?

Do you demand it?

Or are you doing it behind his back?

One thing I've noticed with social media, tho mostly Facebook, is that the less I've used it; posting, sharing, liking, commenting etc. the less accurate the alogrithm is, as it has nothing personal to go on. I've not used mine actively for over a year, and my feed has defaulted to stereotypical 'bloke stuff' so F1, armed forces, 'patriot' pages, reels of the kind you're describing, even the flipping tory party (I had that Sunak flip chart video!).
My point is you can't rely on the algorithm's accuracy as a basis for judging your partner, you shouldn't be asking/looking on their social media to check up on them, and, unless there's worse things popping up on Facebook reels than I've seen, I'm not entirely sure why you get to police that anyway?

@Hardlyworking Yeah that’s quite literally what I’m saying you took the words right out my mouth

Yes, and every man who happens to be a dad has the right to go through his wife's phone whenever he wants, if he suspects anything?

Does she have the right to put a tracker on his car maybe? What about hidden cameras?

The OP sound awful, but you sound fucking unhinged!

I have read all the replies to OP and it’s blatant it’s either all men who cheat on their partners religiously responding or very insecure women.

We are definitely in an age where the internet dooms MOST relationships, people have easier access to be sneaky or cheat on their SO.

OP didn’t ask for unsolicited advice on her relationship, she explained the context and asked if anyone else had the same issue with FB, a lot of the responses are unnecessary and you all seem to be offended over a relationship that isn’t yours which makes it blatant that whoever is behind the responses thinks that what OP is posting about is ok to do in a relationship.

I think the more you search, the more likely it is what you are looking for will come up, the red flags are that it is coming up IN the first place.

And if you have to argue about privacy in a RELATIONSHIP where you have children, there is an issue. If OP believes her partner isn’t respecting the mother of his children and has proved he hasn’t done so in the past, she has every right to go through his phone.

Basically just sexy women in very little in this instance

Poor man.

OP you're becoming very unpleasant.

You know these algorithms are not perfect right ? They sometimes pop up the most random content, unrelated to your personal preferences.

What on earth is a sexual thirst trap???

Goods not foods! 😂

'ok, i'll go sit in my bedroom with my kid when he's home from work.'

Oh dear what a sad reply!

Can you not see that whilst you don't deserve to be cheated on that he is going to be unhappy and have a roving eye as to what he sees as the grass being greener?!

What's more appealing? Sitting at home with the wife who has narrowed her eyes, pursed her lips and sits there with her arms folded her mind filled with suspicion or some bird on social media, jiggling her foods and smiling?
