    What I was wondering, as she was so sure others did that sort of thing too, is her hubby the only bloke she's been with?

    I was on Twitter and saw people tweeting about #penisbeaker and wondered what they were going on about, until someone tweeted the buzzfeed link.

    I wouldn't like to be in Mr PenisBeaker's shoes when he goes to work tomorrow, he's going to get such a ribbing!

    I feel sorry for the guy.

    It's one of those situations where any internet poster has every right to post anything they want - even if it makes the poster look stupid.

    The poster has less right to post something which makes their partner look stupid in real life. If the partner is identifiable by the posts.

    So, any woman who posts something on the internet which mocks her male partner. Especially if her post identifies him in real life. And it's all about sexual issues.

    "below the belt"

    That woman in this scenario deserves to be on the receiving end of the jokes and the criticism. Not the guy.

    I couldn't stop laughing; some of those replies were genius :rotfl:

    I think they outed themselves IRL prior to posting the thread going by one of the OP's posts.

    I'm reading it at work and I'm about a third of the way through it. It's pretty hard to keep a straight face.

    Although, tbh, for a good laugh, the first few pages of the 'Having fun with Debitas' thread on here is the best I've read.

    Ah, saw that on FB last night. Replied saying I always take a plastic cup of water up to bed at night - now worried what friends who've seen it might think (it's often left up there as I'm in a rush in the mornings!)! :eek:
