Funny thing
The ads in the upper right corner of the forum always seem oddly specific to me (like for me it's usually stuff like camera gear, catfood, etc., stuff that I've recently done a search for or ordered)... but now I'm getting vasectomy ads??? Why in the world would I be getting vasectomy ads?

You don't know it yet, but soon you will need a vasectomy. The algorithm never fails.

That's what I was thinking! Like maybe, "Uh oh, he's not voting for Biden... maybe we'd better encourage him to remove his ability to have any progeny."

lol Funny, if not serious.
It's more likely whatever algorithms (or whatever it is) behind it can, via browsing and shopping habits of a user, more or less identify their gender and target some male or female specific ads even if it isn't related to their normal interests. After all, I've gotten ads sometimes on some sites for stereotypical woman things, like fashion and makeup, esp high end, when I really couldn't care less about that stuff, nor afford the expensive ones even if I did. Edit: Though if we're going to imagine it's political, I call dibs on calling them Conspiracy Cookies. |

T'were it me, my first instinct would be to ask my wife if she was using the laptop recently.
Then I'd be like "You know I'd have to be involved in this whole thing, right? They don't just snip ya while you're sleeping, 'honey'. What're you tryin' ta pull?!"

At least you guys are getting ads that are related to your gender. I keep getting spam texts for ED pills! Umm....

If my wife ever got pregnant ONE of us would send her down a flight of stairs.
I believe last time the discussion came up she and I agreed to flip a coin for it. Either way, that's what's happening! But yeah, no kids. Kids are the worst, no thanks.

No, no, I'm firmly in the female camp of self-identification. And even if I did, I don't have a, uh, part to dysfunction! It might make sense if it was on my hubby's phone, but it is strictly on MINE.

lol Maybe it just also targets women who appear to be married? Being kind of involved and all, and in some cases is the one having to pressure a spouse into a doctor visit?

My wife insists that she'd much rather get her tubes tied in a few years. That's perfectly fine with me! "Nothing sharp goes near The Precious," she says. Seriously, she says that whenever anyone even says the word "Vasectomy".
Kind of a weird chick. But I am not about to argue this one.

Now I see lots of ads here for "Lovers," the sex store. I promise you, I've never owned or even thought about getting a sex toy in my whole life.
