To think that MNHQ shouldn't let a thread full of men asking for sex chat PMs stand?

I know I can hide the sex topic, but that doesn't make the thread go away.

I don’t go on the sexboard but if what you are saying is true then i agree with you…MNHQ should delete those posts or close the thread

Getir · 10/02/2023 22:18

The way I see it is that many, many women come on MN because they are devastated by their husbands affairs, yet there is a thread on the sex board full of men in supposedly sexless marriages asking for sexy chat. MN is either a support site or it's not.

That’s what the report function is for.

I have reported.

There are loads of hook up sites on the internet. I never thought MN would be so desperate for clicks that they would stoop that low.

I've just seen that thread and there were many women also on there. I was surprised that such a thread existed

The sheer amount of men who pop up in the sex board is creepy AF. But the women 'if they are' are surprisingly protective over them. Gives me the heebies.

Same. It's all a bit seedy really. I mean talk about sex if you must but the 'M43 up for anything' posts are a bit much. <clutches pearls>

Me too. All over eager to over share what their DW enjoys in bed.
Or getting sad that she won’t do certain things. It’s all very very strange.,

Hopefully they might come for the filth but stay for the feminism? 🤷🏻‍♀️

They only ever post in the sex topic.

I'm so glad I'm a woman, would fucking hate to be so consumed by my own genitals Hmm. I mean sex is alright but not worth being a thirsty sadsack on a parenting website.

HellcatSpangledShalalala · 10/02/2023 22:44

Yep I raised this in a different thread earlier this week, there were women on it too but so many openly saying they were married Angry

Getir · 10/02/2023 22:45

They must get off on posting on MN when there are plenty of other sites they can wank over.

The wink emoji they use as well. It's creepy.

I'd be gutted it my husband was behaving like that on a forum somewhere. Feel sorry for the husbands and wives that belong to them.

Just best to swerve the whole board really I think.

It comes up in active now so impossible to swerve, it's also still coming up even if you have hidden the topic.

gamerchick · 10/02/2023 22:50

I know. I went on one recently and got a mouthful. I just hide them as they come up.

I'm sure there are some boards that you have to actively opt into. Or there was, could it not be changed to that maybe?

Getir · 10/02/2023 22:52

The fact it comes up in active makes it even worse. The relationship board is full of women who have found messages to OW from their husbands, yet MN seem to not give a single fuck that there's a thread full of people asking for sex PMs.

I've never been on the sex board but I had the idea that you had to have an established posting history before you could post there? Perhaps I imagined it.

SpottyBalloons · 10/02/2023 22:53

That was an unfortunate choice of phrasing 🤣

FOJN · 10/02/2023 22:54

It's hard to know these days if someone is genuinely concerned about a thread/topic or is signposting.

I didn't know the thread existed and then when I did I had to go and have a look 😮and I can't find my pearls.

The sex board never used to come up in Active. Now it does and I don't think you have to be a member for as long as you once did.

You think I'm sign posting? I'm not. I think posters should be aware of what MN is allowing these days.
