We’re mostly women here, and it’s not like there might be any children walking past is it? You’ll let me post it, right? It’s a very sexy photo 🥵🥵🥵.

If the answer is no, can I ask why? Because that’s what you’re allowing to be on everyone’s screen through your absolute refusal to do anything about the Anne Summers adverts people have been complaining about since 14th December (or maybe earlier than that, I don’t know).

Shall I screenshot it, and someone can approve the photo?

Or (crazy idea) will you do something about the advert?

Thank you! It’s showing up 5+ times as I scroll down & I agree completely inappropriate for this site.

PennyLaneisinmyheartandmysoul · 27/12/2025 19:57

Yep!! I can’t even click on it to say to say hide this shitty grim ad!

Notmymarmosets · 27/12/2025 20:06

Well said op. Screen shot it and post it.

Morning, everyone. We understand if people would rather not click on these ads but if anyone is able to send us the urls for them, that will help us track them down more quickly.
Otherwise a screenshot would be really helpful, too, and any other info such as the name of the company, if it's visible.
Many thanks.”

Well Hebe, how about YOU click on the ad and get the url for yourself instead of getting us to do your dirty work for you?

I can provide a screenshot for you, enlarged, full colour, but who would approve it? You? Justine? Do you honestly think it would be appropriate for me to do that?

Nothing personal but you posted on the other thread so here we are. You need to escalate this to someone don’t you?

I work in tech and it's sometimes quite hard to recreate what a user sees or experiences. If you want them to do something about it, give them the URL.

So many users are complaining about this and I find it quite difficult impossible to believe that not one member of staff hasn’t also seen it.

Unless they all use ad blockers of course.

It is on Google Chrome.

Plenty of us have seen it.

It doesn’t offend me. But it is inappropriate for this website.

Congratulations for previously being ‘a lingerie model for a motorcycle magazine in the 70s’. I was previously a Housing Benefit administrator in the 80s.

@NoCommentingFromNowOn I added my report on the other thread running about this.

next we'll get the cock-and-bull story about how MNHQ buys a package of adverts and don't know what they're getting. Like really?

So they've got to take this utter tripe as part of a package and no say in declining to objectify women thrusting their buttocks at the camera.

But why can’t someone from MN log in as a user?

ThejoyofNC · 27/12/2025 20:32

I've been getting a hell of a lot of those ads. In fact I'm getting an absolutely ridiculous amount of ads in general. Just read the first page of a thread and there were 8 ads just between posts. That's not counting all the others plastered around every inch of the page.

I cannot understand it

Hosoan · 27/12/2025 20:33

It's distasteful and very tiresome to keep seeing it.

Are you me, Ive seen it and am using Chrome

I was also a HB officer in the very late 80s.

EchoedSilence · 27/12/2025 20:37

Didn't MN partner with Anne Summers when they launched the MN vibrator?

Maybe that's why MN are reluctant to remove the Anne Summers Ads.

No, that was Smile Makers.

I’ve never seen it. I use the app only but pay £2.99pm for MN Premium. Bargain

There were certainly a lot of Anne Summers promotion going on at the time.

Can I ask why you find it a bargain? What's premium about it?

I use an ad free browser. Even more bargainous

AshesUnderUricon · 27/12/2025 20:49

I haven't seen that advert at all, but I'm being stalked by a picture of an exceptionally unprepossessing child with a streaming nose which keeps popping up in the right hand panel.

kittensinthekitchen · 27/12/2025 20:49

When they've been hosting at least one photo of baby genitals for the past two weeks, unbothered, I wouldn't imagine they'll be in a rush to remove the woman's buttocks.

I really think there's some at MNHQ who could do with having their hard drive checked.

I was stable staff on a stud farm in the 70's.

It takes a lot to impress me.😂

JDM625 · 27/12/2025 20:55

OP- just to add that its not just the last few weeks those adverts have been on here, its been MONTHS, because myself and others were complaining at the time too!

Are you fucking joking? If you work it tech then you’ll know that clicking on an ad to get the URL will then cause no end of more of the same for the user and the whole point is that WE DON’T WANT THIS. Mn need to sort this out.
