The sex toys thread...does MN have to advertise that I've read it??

[HBC125]

It's there constantly...showing pink when other (unread) threads are blue. If my kids stumble across MN on my pc then its there to see....yep, I read the sex toys thread. Can't we move on...?

Maybe you should be watching what your children do while using your PC and closing things you don't want them to see. It's not MN's job to parent your kids.

Why would you read about sex toys on a device your children have access to?

Behave!

Can you not just hide it? Or did you plan to return to it later?

Close Mumsnet on your pc.

There you are problem solved.🤷🏼‍♀️

They dont in theory have access...but at 15 and 16 they are nosey gits, and ok, parental fail, I might sometimes not log out properly.

click on all the other threads so they are all the same colour ;-)

though at 15 and 16 they are well aware how they got here...

Can’t hide it.
I have tried.

Hang on what have I missed?!?

Give over.

though at 15 and 16 they are well aware how they got here...
Presumably they arrived on this planet following use of the real thing, not a toy.

Anyway, I'm well aware of how conception happens but even so, the idea of my parents having any kind of sex life is not one I want to entertain.

Im serious! Why is that thread highlighted when others arent??

If your kids are 15 and 16 then they are old enough to know that Mummy might still be interested in sex.

If it's really bothering you that much, and causing so much anxiety... Just do as others have suggested just click on a load of random threads, they'll all turn the same colour then 👍 Or the really simple way around it, is to log out properly. 😁
See?
Simple 😃

I don’t know why people are being assholes, but yeah op, i get.
It’s annoying.

Jesus. Dont they know people have sex lives and private lives. It's a non issue.

Dont read the thread If you're embarrassed for it to show.
Or dont stay logged into mumsnet. That's how I stop anyone from seeing anything embarrassing. I leave no access.

I'm serious! Why is that thread highlighted when others arent??
If you are serious then sort yourself out and remember to close your browser or set up the laptop for 2 separate logins, don't share the password.
What is the point in blaming a handy feature for your nosey DC.

The irony with rude name calling. Charming.

It's pink? Mines purple.
Log out or something, then you're sorted.

Sounds like making a big deal out of nothing to me. Children should not be policing their parents anyway!

I once accidentally left a waterproof vibey on the side of the bath when some people came to stay. That was a bit more 😱.

Clear your browsing history and they'll all revert to blue.

Well do log out properly and problem solved!

Off all the things on the Internet to worry about, a thread about sex toys on MN is way down the list.

Well you've made everyone aware now by starting a thread about it
