Just enjoying a quiet Saturday night reading Mumsnet and this pops up!

YANBU: Mumsnetters are not the target market for butt plugs

YABU: I think I might buy one

I’d much prefer that to an advert for Boden!

The ads are down to your browsing history, Mumsnet don't choose the ads.

This is true, all my ads are for Toast, tempting to buy their lovely knitwear 🥺

Of course you would 🙄

Do you know how vanilla butt plugs are?!

If it were gimp masks with ball gags, maybe I'd do a double take, although probably not.

For God's sake OP, unclench.

It's a Mumsnet ad. Part of their Swears By affiliated ads.

If there's swearing, try a smaller one.

A website populated by nearly all women sounds like the ideal place to peddle sex toys.

Yeah, because women hate sex toys, especially vibrators, and there certainly aren't loads and loads and loads of het couples who use toys sometimes.

The reason I used an adblocker was following a still birth all the baby stuff ads were upsetting. Now we are not allowed adblockers I do find every scroll I take a gamble.

Is that the tagline?

The ads on here are in no way related to browsing history

I thought that too until last night.

I was looking at houses for sale in a very tiny and unpopular seaside town.

Then when I logged in to MN, the ads on the right of my screen were for houses in that area.

Not my scene, but no one is forced to buy them. 🤷‍♀️

So it’s just a coincidence all mine are jet2holidays and no butt plugs 🤷‍♀️

You never know what you will enjoy unless you try it!

Those will be google ads or similar not the mumsnet content ads
