Not to want "OUTSTANDING CLITORAL STIMULATION" at the top of every page on here?

Yes, Mumsnet has to make money.

Yes, orgasms are great.

But AIBU to be slightly uncomfortable with seeing "Outstanding clitoral stimulation.” Best sex toys from Ann Summers to heat things up this winter at the top of every damn page? Pretty sure threads from the Sex topic don't appear in Active Convos so why is this OK? I don't need to see it every single time. Sometimes I just want to have a quick look for parking threads and CF drama without having to scroll past "Outstanding clitoral stimulation.” Best sex toys from Ann Summers to heat things up this winter. It's unnecessarily explicit.

Someone did complain back in October, but MN never came back with a proper response.

AIBU or should I accept the constant presence of "Outstanding clitoral stimulation.” Best sex toys from Ann Summers to heat things up this winter. ?

Agreed! I'm sick of seeing it!

User112 · 06/02/2022 21:54

Agree! It’s annoying !!

User135644 · 06/02/2022 21:55

It's sex mad.

Im2022 · 06/02/2022 21:55

Aside from the irony of this post…yes, it’s annoying. I think you can hide the thread so it doesn’t appear at the top anymore.

NatriumChloride · 06/02/2022 21:56

Me too!! It’s so fucking irritating!

NoSquirrels · 06/02/2022 21:56

What I love about your post, OP, is how many times you’ve made your clitoral stimulation point… Grin

Im2022 · 06/02/2022 21:57

I lie. It’s not a thread is it, I just bloody well opened it..Well we should have an option to hide it.

Shouldbedoing · 06/02/2022 21:57

I wholeheartedly agree. Thanks for voicing it

User48751490 · 06/02/2022 21:57

I also don't feel comfortable with it as it's in such a prominent part of the site.

Haffiana · 06/02/2022 21:58

What's this? Doesn't everyone come to AIBU for a quick (but outstanding) wank?

NoSquirrels · 06/02/2022 21:58

I feel like replying to this thread over and over just to get that good ol’ clitoral stimulation showing up on Active…

RagzRebooted · 06/02/2022 21:59

Yeah it's starting to really annoy me, it's been there for ages now. My eye is drawn to it every time (for obvious reasons!).

It's not even a good article and Lovehoney is better value Wink

Travis1 · 06/02/2022 21:59

I had to go look for it. I’ve never even noticed 🤷🏻‍♀️

Latenightreader · 06/02/2022 21:59

I agree - it vanished briefly but reared its head once more. What makes it worse is I’ve clearly had a fat fingered moment and clicked whilst scrolling so it looks as if I read it when I haven’t! Not that anyone else will be looking at my mums et, but…

Somebodylikeyew · 06/02/2022 22:00

Really annoys me too. It’s been there ages.

SchoolWillBeUpShitCreek · 06/02/2022 22:00

Could it be removed please @MNHQ

Zazdar · 06/02/2022 22:00

What am I missing?

MazzleDazzle · 06/02/2022 22:00

Everyone knows the best sex toys are from Love Honey.

Ann Summers makes me think of naff parties back in the 90s with gimmicky chocolate body spread and flavoured lube. Hmm

Justgettingbye · 06/02/2022 22:01

Never seen it? I'm on mobile app tho

SpinningTheSeedsOfLove · 06/02/2022 22:01

Is there a way to close the bloody thing?

MrsBungle · 06/02/2022 22:01

Agreed. I’m sick of seeing it. I keep moving my phone when my kids are around in case they look over my shoulder. Absolutely no need for it to be plastered all over active. Can’t hide it either.

OverByYer · 06/02/2022 22:01

Agree, its getting on my nerves now.

Oh god, I know it’s childish but “vanished briefly but reared it’s head”, “fat-fingered” and “anyone else looking at my mums et” … Grin
Viviennemary · 06/02/2022 22:02

I hate it. Really offensive to a lot of women IMHO. I clicked on it. Absolutely vile.

I’m not, but haven’t seen it either.
