I know we have Sporner corner but...

Please can we have a topic that I can hide, where people can ask all about poo (maybe call that one BumsNet) and blood and all other manner of bodily fluids and afflictions.

I'm getting queasy as I get older and some of the thread titles make me feel sick. 🤢

Oh I have found my people (love “Bumsnet”).

absolutely hate seeing this stuff in active. If had a consistent place for it to go / be moved to that would be amazing.

Hello again, have you given any more thought to my request for such a topic?

After seeing a title of a thread in which someone has posted graphic photos of their periods and it putting me off my Vodka and coke (It's OK, I'm on holiday so I'm allowed to drink in the afternoon and I didn't click on the photos).

I've come up with a new name suggestion now as a result if you don't like Bumnset, as it's not inclusive to front bits, then how about 'below the belt?'

Honestly, I know some people must be desperate (or just not genuine) to post these things but, I don't need putting off my Vodka (or tea or diet coke if I'm not on holiday)in the middle of the afternoon. Please let them all be in their own topic 😭

How about TMI as a name ?

AutumnCrow · 17/10/2024 14:58

Suggested board names from pp, and a couple from me:

TMI
Below the Belt
Trigger Warning Central
Arse Trolls and Fluid Fetishists
Bumsnet

Bumsnet: for... intimate... effluvia.

I also agree, really. I'm a dedicated sporner but I'm glad it's contained in its corner.^

@HebeMumsnet have you seen my latest message? I think it's reasonable and I have one more person in support 🙏

Yes from me. I’m not normally in favour of creating yet another topic which threads won’t be moved into from AIBU/chat but I’m sick of seeing threads with photos of people’s genitals, poo and blood clots.

Most posters would still use AIBU/chat though and MNHQ doesn't move off-topic threads.

I'd volunteer to move them, providing I didn't need to click on them 🙃

I would also volunteer to move all the off topic threads but that's not an option!

Bumsnet is better than below the belt. Bellow the belt will attract unsavories

I think Bumsnet is the best thing I've ever come up with on the spur of the moment 🤣
