Do you think it's time to start a sexuality shaming topic?

[HotSauceCommittee]

For all those who want us to shut up and not to help and laugh with others about sex?

Maybe we could keep the censorious ness and the comments of "what is wrong with people?"

"This is pathetic"

"Why do you need/want to talk about this?"

I've seen no "twats", either metaphorical, or literal, on the sex threads, just coherent, strong argument in favour of discussion and some great humour at times.

I notice that the anti-sex brigade didn't answer some of the rebuttals and counter questions to their protests on the sex threads. Perhaps they'd care to elaborate on a special "Sexuality shaming" thread? Then they can get together some really good insults going and hopefully make the "sex positive" posters among us shut up and creep back into the woodwork.

Has it got legs, do you think?

Usually - why do you always act like you are under attack when people say they enjoy sex? Seriously, it's every time...

"No one cares except you"

So very true.

But that can be said about any topic, sharing details about anything can leave you open to trolls

No one has called the over sharers any of those things.

So the 'sex shaming' bollocks is being used in the wrong context here.

Excellent post by gamerchick sums it all up without being all fuddy-duddy like the rest of us ancients on here.

I don't care if you enjoy sex.

You can enjoy sex without telling everyone how much you enjoy it.

You can enjoy sex but I personally don't want to enjoy your sex with you IYKWIM.

But you don't have to read it usually. You are not forced to.

For some folk to claim to not like threads about sex on MN,and all the gory details they are said to reveal, they sure know alot about them.

Nobody has said that posters should be shamed in to not talking about sex. Just don't feel the need to flash EVERYTHING in my face, the face of 100 other posters and goodness knows how many creeps reading it.

Sex IS private (unless you're in ancient Rome). This is a PUBLIC messageboard. Everything you write here can be read (and shared) and unless you namechange for every single thread you are giving a lot of people a lot of very personal information. There are plenty of people on this site who hyperventilate at the idea of a stranger taking a picture of their kid in case they photoshop it in to something criminal and abusive. And yet some of you are quite happy to expose yourselves and your sexuality to any twat with a computer mouse and a box of tissues. it's not liberating, it's not informative, it's just plain daft.

I'm allowed an opinion.

This thread is in site stuff, Its discussing the site.

'Thread title about sex'

OP: I have a question about this slightly unusual sex related thing

Other posters: here is some advice, and some funny stories, how lovely it is to talk to other people about this aspect of our lives in an open and honest fashion! Some if us like this act, others don't, but it's all happy and consensual so great!

Sex shamers: OMG YUCK YOU SAID SEX. Talking about sex is disgusting, you are basically trying to FORCE us to do that thing that you think you like but you can't possibly like because everyone knows sex is always initiated by the man (and all sex involves a man) and all men watch so much porn that they don't know what they like either. How dare you spring this discussing topic on is, we are MOTHERS, what makes you think we have ever had sex?

Other posters: but consent...

Sex shamers: now you are saying we are prudes just because we don't do what you do! REPORT REPORT REPORT. This thread has sex in it, therefore it must all be men, because WOMEN DONT LIKE SEX!

Yes usually you are allowed an opinion. The same way posters are allowed to discuss sex on a sex thread should they choose to.

So, people who don't like to tell the internet all the details of their sex lives are anti sex? Or Lights off vanilla types?

I didn't say it was people who don't share sex stories, I said its people who look down at others for sharing them and make a point of telling them they're disgusting human beings.

No one cares except you

People aren't supposed to care, it's a humour thread

The blatant patronising and demonising of those of us who aren't against talking about sex on an anonymous forum very much belongs in the dark ages. The act of sex is private but it's a very emotive and quite political subject so people are gonna talk about it and this will naturally lead to talking about what people like in the bedroom. To openly shame those people (yes that is what has happened on a few threads) is the height of rude and pathetic.

Maryz your post in this topic was extremely sneery and patronising, and insulting (twats, really ) you clearly think you're better than many people because you don't partake in the sex threads, and your OP may as well have read "there's logs of slaggy MN users talking about sex and I don't like it, I want my way, banish the whores to a corner of the site where noble and humble like me don't have to put up with them."

Anyway, surely the simple answer to this is: if you don't wanna talk about sex on MN don't open a thread which is clearly about sex.

'Thread title about school admissions'

OP: I have a question about school admissions

Rest of thread: people who have come for a discussion about school admissions

Not on thread:people who don't like hearing about school admissions

What a load of old cock Britta. Have you actually read any of the replies on this thread?

Lots of assumptions on this thread, and a bit of overthinking too.

I hope you tell your teenagers it's perfectly fine to discuss their sex lives on an internet forum then.

Wow, Britta, that's exactly how it is.
You're so perceptive.

I don't have teenagers as yet however I will ensure that there are adequate safety barriers as well as discussing with them the dangers of sharing too much information on the internet. Once they become adults then it's up to them.

However usually we are not talking about teenagers are we, we are talking about adults on this forum.
