Make fetishists reviewing M&S knickers hits the Sun

Oh lord. I’ve bought lots of underwear from m&s over the years, definitely won’t be shopping in there again.

bork

Another vote for Tesco knickers, five in a sealed pack.

Maybe they can start offering chocolate dildos to tie their two core market segments together.

I like Fantasie and Freya. Triumph also good, despite the old-fashioned name. Figleaves is a good online source. And they always come in sealed packs.

I never shopped for lingerie at M&S but did like their food hall, some of their scented products and candles, and occasionally clothes (I liked the look of their beauty calendar and had my eye on a black poncho/top), and often shopped there for things like this.

But there are other retailers.

Maybe they can start offering chocolate dildos to tie their two core market segments together.

Agree. I was pissed off about the changing rooms, but M&S are now permanently burned into my mind as mostly about enabling men to wank. Ew.

And associating that with food...…. bleurgh. Revolting. Just go the rest of the hog M&S, and put the dildoes and wank socks stands by the handbags. I'll be shopping as far away from you as I can get and wanting to get the antibacterial gel out as I pass the door.

I feel sorry for Rosie Huntingdon-Whitley. Poor women knowing that knickers with her name on are the lacy thongs of choice for pervy blokes. :(

Yep tesco knickets v good.They often have the posher ones in the sale too.

Another vote for Tesco knickers.

And the last time I bought any they came in a sealed pack so less chance of having been wanked on by some pervy man than M&S 'we don't care if men have wanked on these knickers' knickers.

Yep, Tesco basics - socks, knickers, thermals are very good indeed.

So M&S are fine with the women's underwear section being used as a forum for men to share their fetish.

They have specifically stated that fetishistic men's wank fantasies are 'appropriate for all their customers', yes.

That is how little Marks and Spencers think of their female customers.

Just to be clear M&S think fetishistic men's wank fantasies are suitable for all their female customers of any age, and any background regardless of what those women and girls might feel.

That's not just wank fantasies, that's M&S wank fantasies.

It’s not just any knicker fetish, it’s a M&S knicker fetish
Definitely the best comment from the sub article.

I’ve got some Tesco knickers that are as old as my teen kids. Good price too.

Ew ew ew. So M&S are fine with the women's underwear section being used as a forum for men to share their fetish.

Can anyone recommend a place that sells good pants which last well.

Oh god I am NEVER buying from them again. I don’t want to risk getting something that’s been wanked in.

Good work, fellow Mumsnetters. This is exactly the type of material that should be plagiarised and make it into the national media (as opposed to the 'Bridezilla threads that are probably all made up anyway).

M&S's response to this, though, is particularly galling. If they are moderating responses, as they say in their statement, then they are approving this BS. And as PPs have noted, the only interpretation of this statement is that they're aware of what's going on with this particular customer 'base', and are actively encouraging fetishists at the expense of their female customers.

[Jaw-clang]. Sex shops (and there's nothing wrong with them) just went mainstream. Were this not such an insidious ideology, there'd be a humorous irony in the fact that it's staid old M&S who are instrumental in blurring the boundaries between two previously oppositional retail markets.

I shall never shop there again.

And presumably the other AGPs are 'liking' this in bucket loads.

Stop trying to make fools of women. It's one thing some perv getting a hard on by submitting a 'cheeky' review but another that M&S enables this.
That's how little they think of women. Somebody on here once wrote a great line about it all centering on a man's desire to wank.

Fuck you M&S.

And allow lingerie to be returned.

Eeeww.

Thank fuck I never did shop at M&S. Just yuck.

They are moderated to ensure they are appropriate for all customers to read.

My niece is 14. I do not feel that reviews that coyly hint at how snugly a pair of knickers fits over the reviewer's meat and two veg is appropriate for her to read.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a Monroe Bergdorf collaborating with M&S in an "empowering" lingerie for mens bodies extravaganza.

Their statement in The Sun

M&S said it encouraged reviews and feedback to help other shoppers.
It added: “They are moderated to ensure they are appropriate for all customers to read.”

They know and they approve. And allow lingerie to be returned.

I'm out.

You should have said you were trying to iron it with you lady penis.

🤮🤮🤮

M&S refused to publish my review of a "non-iron" school dress made out of material that was not just the complete opposite of non-iron but also totally resistant to ironing - it was a very informative and useful review, I felt, that was written very eloquently indeed. I think they declared it not relevant or something- yet those reviews stand? How does that work?
