Woman taking about sex

I'm currently studying at uni and had to do some group work recently. We were divided up into groups and given tasks.
The group is a fair mix of men and women aged from around 20-45ish I think.
One particular woman in the group talks constantly about sex when we meet up to get work done. This week telling everyone in the group that a man had never made her orgasm and she does it herself every night. Other times she's told the group about what sexual position she prefers and about what she likes men to do to her etc.
None of the group are particularly friendly we were put together randomly so really she is telling acquaintances quite intimate things.
I find this so strange, I understand this kind of conversation amongst good friends but AIBU to think it's off with a group of fellow students? Feel free to tell me I'm a prude Blush

purplealienpuke some friend you have Hmm that's disgusting. Inviting people into your sexual escapades, even fictional ones, without their consent is sexual harassment. I hope you told her how wrong her actions were.

Tell her privately to begin with, that no one has any interest in, listening to her blurt out details of her sex life. If that doesn't work, then I'd say it in front of the group. She's too much!

In a similar situation in the past I have simply cut across the person concerned by saying, loudly and continually until they shut up "The only sex life I am interested in is my own, and I don't see it that it is anyone's business but mine either. What do the rest of you think?"
The chances are that the others have been dying to say something ut couldn't think how to put it.

I was going to make a joke about this woman trying to get a rise out of the men, but it's rather crude, I suppose, so I won't.

Oh god, it sounds excruciating. I worked with someone like that and for her, it was attention seeking. I can't see how that kind of conversation could ever be appropriate in a work or study related context. Tell her to stop banging on about it (no pun intended..)

I'm seeing her tomorrow I'll feedback what happens

"And you're telling us that why?" with a Hmm
"And that's relevant because....."
"I think we're all talking about x, not sure why you're discussing your pretend sex life"
"Is anyone else wondering why X keeps mentioning her sex life at totally inappropriate times?"
"Are you having issues X? Only you seem to feel the need to keep over-sharing about your sex life when it's not remotely relevant or appropriate. I'm sure one of us can help you find a good therapist if you want?"
"Oh ffs X, we weren't interested in your fantasy sex life the first time you inappropriately discussed it. Do us all a favour and shut up."
"So X, is it true what they say about the more people talk about sex, the less they're actually getting?"

I wouldn't go to her privately. She sounds like the type to snigger about it behind your back.

How did it go today OP?

fuckoffdailysnail · 30/03/2017 19:16

Hi all, every time she made a deviation from the task to bring up sex I said can we stay on topic and ignored her, after a couple of times others in the group followed suit and she gave up in the end
Thanks all for the suggestions Wine

Well done OP!!

whirlygirly · 30/03/2017 20:59

Well done! You may have to rinse and repeat a few times before the message sinks in. Bet the others were really grateful someone finally piped up.

SparkleSunshine201 · 31/03/2017 01:18

Well done!
