Didn't see Christmas one, but ate a packet of normal ones instead of dinner on very delayed train journey

Are the Christmas ones a different flavour?

Have you heard that M&S are now making Percy pig muffins? Don’t walk, RUN! This is not a drill people

I think ALL Percy's, Connie's and Colin's are suitable for Veggies now, I love them!!! 🐷🐽 I'm also Diabetic, so these are a godsend when I'm having a hypo, the problem is not eating so many of them that I go the other way 🙈 xx

This is the third random pro-M&S product thread to pop up on Mumsnet in the last few days.

The cynic in me would wonder if they've got their PR bods starting threads in an attempt to distract everyone from the fact that THEY LET MEN IN THE WOMENS CHANGING ROOMS FOR FUNSIES

AND THEIR WEBSITE IS FULL OF PERVY MEN WRITING ABOUT HOW SEXY THEY FEEL IN M&S FEMALE UNDERWEAR, WHERE THEY TUCK IN THEIR PENIS (UNSEWN GUSSET ALERT!) WITH ACCOMPANYING PHOTOS.

But that's the cynic in me. I'm sure it's just a random coincidence.

Ooh I might have to give the Christmas ones a go then.

Just remember, when you buy your Percy Pigs that the guys who left these reviews can now be found in the female changing rooms, seeing if they can tuck their penis into the gusset of their m&s knickers, right next to the 12 year old having her first bra fitting.

How did this post go from being about sweets to being a borderline public display of hatred and slander to men who choose to dress in women's clothes??

The sour Percy pigtails are amazing though!

Slander? What slander? What have I said that is untrue?

Cornishbumpkin · 14/11/2019 21:36

I'm not here to argue but the way you call them 'Pervy men' and started about quite an unrelated topic to the OP

Is is not a perversion for a man to wear female underwear for a "naughty touch" (his words, read the screenshot) or for a man to buy, wear and review a bra designed for teens / preteens?

It's not hatred, and it's not slander because it's true. Men leave reviews of women's knickers online - and on other forums boast about trying them on, leaving er, stains on them, and then putting back on the rack.

These are men - identifying as male online - not transwomen.

M&S have decided to let all men change in women's changing rooms if they'd like to.
