Is there a picture loading?

RocketPanda · 01/07/2026 21:13

Not clicking on a picture without context

susiedaisy1912 · 01/07/2026 21:13

What advert?

heyjudena · 01/07/2026 21:15

YABU

It’s a woman using a thigh master and the suggestion is that her pelvic floor is so tight, her man won’t leave her alone…

JustinesGraspingAvarice · 01/07/2026 21:16

I was so hoping to see cock. YABU to not show cock!

ellyoctober · 01/07/2026 21:17

If it’s full full in the CBeebies magazine, YANBU

Anywhere else? Meh, crack on

No where nearly as bad as those diarrhoea adverts!

SwanRivers · 01/07/2026 21:21

Why are you disgusted?

Many women find sex much more enjoyable with tight pelvic floor muscles, so I expect their partners do too 🤷‍♀️

TheTideIsNigh · 01/07/2026 21:22

You can be disgusted at whatever you like OP. Doesn’t bother me in the slightest though.

Devilsmommy · 01/07/2026 21:23

I get it OP. Basically saying that you should use a thigh master because your partner will definitely want sex with you then🙄 fuck all to do with keeping fit and strong, it's all about sex. I wish there was an emoji that showed major eye rolls😂

They make me laugh. Where I was at university there was also a Dance and Theatre course. I imagine those students bouncing around in their lycra (it was the 80s) ending up singing about diarrhoea.

It’s when you find yourself singing along!

It's impossible not to 🤣.

There is also the implication that you are judged by your man on your tightness- not your personality or intelligence.

I agree location is the key here.

somanychristmaslights · 01/07/2026 21:36

The product itself is a load of bollocks anyway. Just roll your eyes and move on.

I think it’s just saying a strong pelvic floor makes sex feel better.

Italiangreyhound · 02/07/2026 01:01

Horrible advert.

MeanwhileinGilead · 02/07/2026 01:11

Yes, it seems to de-emphasise female pleasure and mutual consent and condone and normalise rape culture or at least sex pest behaviour. Why not just say "this makes you have great sex"? It's also heteronormative as not all women want to have sex with any men.

OTOH, it's so sloppy and amateur I don't think it can be a real ad.

LBFseBrom · 02/07/2026 02:27

I can't see anything wrong with it, a lot of people go to gyms and use things like that.

PrizedPickledPopcorn · 02/07/2026 02:44

your Pelvic floor is so tight your Man won't leave you alone.

This sounds coercive. It could be aimed at how great sex will feel, but no, ita about how horny your man will be. Whether or not you are.

I didn't read the text! I have now.

Maybe not a good choice of words, that could be altered.
