Was browsing Rightmove and found what might be a wank room.
Tell me what you think!

YANBU- It’s a wank room
YABU- It’s purely innocent vintage decor in a bathroom

I think you're a weirdo for posting on a parenting advice forum such a stupid question? It's a toilet with Marilyn Monroe decor, get your mind out the gutter 🙄

Finbrek · 12/01/2024 19:15

Surely it is the height of middle class privilege to be able dedicate an entire room to the five knuckle shuffle. And they talk about the cost of living crisis? You're not cutting back on household expenses are you, Jeremy, with your big old wanking parlour and your massive great fucking tap??!

WeveGotThis · 12/01/2024 19:16

This is my favourite thing on the internet today 😂😂😂 I love Marilyn! I think the people who go down the route of having a room entirely for sexual pleasure surely tend to go for a full-on dungeon replete with toys, swings, pornographic photos and BDSM instruments. Cheerful wallpaper of a smiley dead woman, not so much.

What was the matter with the kids you babysat?! Why couldn't they hide their porn properly? Weirdos.

OP may be in the gutter, but she’s looking at the stars!

What a weird and bizarre thread?

Moier · 12/01/2024 19:19

I can't believe what I've just read 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️.
I had James Dean Wallpaper in my loo once..
It wasn't a flick the bean room.
Never crossed my mind.
How absurd.

tachetastic · 12/01/2024 19:22

@Moier ”flick the bean”

The bean???? 🤣

WeveGotThis · 12/01/2024 19:31

We all deserve a Flick the Bean room

As others have commented, if you're on social media on your phone, do you need pictures on the walls anymore? If it's a two hander, buy a phone stand!

Sorry mother!

Can't you just ask Siri to help?

I think you have to pay extra

If you had any class at all, you'd at least know to refer to it as a masturbatorium.

If you had any class at all, you wouldn't have a masturbatorium.

In the interests of full disclosure, can I confess that in our family bathroom we had a five foot by four foot print of Barbra Streisand in the bath from the movie "What's Up Doc" in a gilt frame.

That is until my nine year old son asked if we could take the creepy lady down. 😂

😂😂 For some reason this really made me laugh and is the only post I will remember from this rather weird thread.

CaramelMac · 12/01/2024 20:48

I once looked at a house where the living room had a single armchair pointed at the TV, no other furniture, and a massive picture of Rod Stewart on the wall. I think that was probably a wank room.

Vistada · 12/01/2024 20:49

It's just (albeit tasteless and basic) wallpaper op wtf

JamSandle · 12/01/2024 20:50

Vintage decor. Looks like a woman or gay man's bathroom to me!

NewYearNewPyjamas · 12/01/2024 20:58

All rooms are wank rooms if you're brave enough.

I did do a quick scan thru to see if anyone else made that obvious joke and didn't see anything. Apologies if you got their first.

AmandaHoldensLips · 12/01/2024 20:59

GalileoHumpkins · 12/01/2024 16:48

Do they have a problem with people going in for a wank?

Funnily enough @GalileoHumpkins it's mainly the village ladies "of a certain age" who value having a gossip and getting away from the wankers they live with.

Catlord · 13/01/2024 00:44

That's the family motto

Speaking of wank rooms, I once found a porn mag in the cistern cupboard at a Premier Inn. The cisterns were build into a unit next to the sink and had a little hinge door for access. Being inquisitive, I lifted it to have a look and found the mag in there. What followed was a few years of me checking every cistern cupboard, in various Premier Inns across the country and I found more! Like it was a secret society of porn mag loving, travelling business men! I haven't been to a Premier Inn in years, but I imagine smart phones have reduced this practice. I don't think hotels put Bibles in the bedside cabinets anymore either. They were simpler times.

Very weird !

Back in the '90s, I rented a furnished house in London with a friend. There were gold taps and Eternal Beau crockery. (Our decision to rent was made on availability, price and location - or so I thought...)

Obviously this is what led me to try swinging in later life. If only I had realised then what a path it had set me on...

(No MM wallpaper, though.)

Perhaps we’ve found a USP for those mumsnetters who are house hunting but abhor the en-suite. Ditch ‘en-suite’ and rename it Wank Room.

’Flowing naturally from the double-aspect master bedroom there is a well-appointed Wank Room, with feature shelving for Penis Beaker storage’.
