I mean I guess it's a nice thought for Mother's Day, pmsl.

Thanks Tesco. Dear Mum, happy Mother's Day, have some comfy PJ's and some self love. Who doesn't want to have a wank on Mothering Sunday?

@ENoeuf

Self love - masturbation Self care - glass of wine and some space from the kids Surprised no one realised it had another meaning

Yep!

I’ve never thought of self-love as wanking! This is definitely a ‘you’ thing, OP.

For me self-love is having good self-esteem, prioritising yourself etc.

I’d be a bit annoyed if I were to get something marked ‘self-love” for a Mother’s Day present though. No, today is about you showing YOUR appreciation for me, kiddos.

Even The Independent knows there's a saucy meaning...

No. It's always had that meaning.

I also snigger at Self Love.

Surely pampering etc is Self Care?

Wow guessing it's half term somewhere 🙄

I always think this when I see self love on clothing!

@marvellousnightforamooncup

Self love is definitely wanking. 'Self care' and 'me time' is feet up, relaxo mode.

That would be my take, and I think Bieber agrees... "Cause if you like the way you look that much Oh, baby, you should go and love yourself"...

Self love is all the “if you don’t love yourself, how do you expect others to love you?” Type guff. There are a whole lot of ‘inspirational quotes’ about self love, it’s definitely not about self pleasure. declutterthemind.com/blog/self-love-quotes/

Self love = wanking. This is a common enough euphemism that surely someone at their head office had heard it before that went into production, or perhaps they had and happily sniggered about it.

Never heard that self love means wanking

Thought exactly the same when I saw those pjs last week and stood chuckling to myself

So I have a waterproof vibrator that I bought for having a wank in the bath. Is that self love or self care?

Both! 🤣

It's not "definitely" wanking. Sure, that euphemism exists. As does the more literal definition of loving yourself.

I'd never have thought that seeing it, but now I can't un-see it

No, I'm with OP here. I've never heard of 'self love' used to mean putting your feet up, relaxing etc.

These comments with the are so odd.

For some people 'self love' does = wanking.

For others, it had a different meaning. M
No need for the eye rolls & side eye.

For many of us, we have only heard it used in the context of wanking!

Yep self love = 🤚🏻👆🏻💦

I would take self love to mean love yourselv

Yep. Wanking.

Just like the Hailee Steinfeld song 'Love Myself'. That isn't about taking a spa day and embracing flaws either

It was only when I was singing along (quite loudly) to that Justin Beiber sing that I realised what "you should go and love yourself" means 🤦🏾‍♀️

But in the words of Rupaul. If you can't love yourself, how in the he'll are you gonna love somebody else? 🙏

It's not trying to be synonymous with self care.

Self care is acts to nurture your body and mind, such as pampering.

Self love is loving and accepting yourself, showing yourself compassion etc. (I'm not denying that it's also used as a euphemism).

They're two different things.

@Idontevenknow

Maybe I'm being naive but I didn't think that when I read it

I didn’t either. I guess our minds aren’t in the gutter 🤷‍♀️
