As per title. For me anyway. Mobile site. Thanks.

Yes, I've noticed this too and would very much like to know why one of the most popular subjects has been put in a corner so to speak. I would like it reinstated please MNHQ rather than having the sex one shoved down my throat constantly. And yes I have hidden the sex one but it's only hidden if I log in, which at 6am when I'm eating my breakfast, I'm not always inclined to do or have time for.

MothralovesGojira · 21/02/2023 09:48

I would also add that I'm on the verge of deregistering because of what's gone on recently so losing Relationships of the active feed may well the straw that has broken my camel's back.
I'm starting to think that MNHQ has been secretly invaded because it's no coincidence that sex subject is being pushed aggressively awhile at the same time the most helpful of subjects, relationships, has been taken off active. I think that I may well be done with MN. I'm very interested to hear what MNHQ has to say about it because I'll bet that we're not the only ones confused and annoyed @ChiefPearlClutcher

I’ve noticed this does not come up now too! I hadn’t stopped to think it was deliberate. Why do this?!

Pseudonamed · 21/02/2023 09:52

Because the stupid sex topic has replaced it.

Place has gone to the dogs.

BaroldFromEastenders · 21/02/2023 09:53

I hadn’t even noticed but it’s not coming up on mine either. What gives @mnhq

Somanysocks · 21/02/2023 09:58

Oh yes, have just noticed this, what's going on?

Hi all - bear with us, we're looking into this now.

RudsyFarmer · 21/02/2023 10:45

I had no idea! How peculiar.

SoupDragon · 21/02/2023 10:46

I thought I'd seen it yesterday/the day before but not today

YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet · 21/02/2023 11:01

Hi all - we're SO sorry. It was excluded by mistake last week. We think the intention was to take a thread out of Active at the OP's request and instead, we excluded the whole topic. It's back now.

Hi all - bear with us, we're looking into this now.

Thank you, hopefully this is an error. It really doesn’t seem right that the sex topic is in Active and the relationships topic isn’t.

ChiefPearlClutcher · 21/02/2023 11:11

Thanks.

There is a poor poster in aibu who asked for advice on her marriage, she would get better replies in Relationships, but perhaps as it’s been a bit out of sight she would not have known about posting their instead. She’s had a few disingenuous replies. 30 year marriage or something like that.

Or chat, I can't find it now.

Well that's a very convenient explanation isn't it MNHQ???? Really? How could you NOT notice that it was missing from active because I noticed straight away?
While you're at it and correcting your 'mistakes' please put the sex topic back where it belongs and take it out of active threads. We all know where it is should we wish to have a look but I'm actually starting to feel as if the whole topic is being pushed at me all the time - it's like being in an sexually abusive relationship and I am finding it triggering. If it's not gone so then, I, a long term Mums Netter will be gone. And yes, I have hidden it but that only works if you're logged in ffs and I log in and out as I use several different shared devices.
