Will never forget the laughter when I asked a girls best friend;
“How will I know which hole it goes in”
Clearly a young me wasn’t that educated on ‘down there’ of ladies!
At least you knew there was more than one hole @CloakOfAsh, I’ve met some dudes in my teenage years who thought we urinated out of our vaginas!
From all of this it’s amazing to me how much is missed still in sex Ed. Like how many holes a girl has @ElleBelle or that sex doesn’t simply make a baby @kindofsquishy. I remember at one stage growing up not know how many holes I had and I’m a girl lol
There is always the classic “you just stick it in and pee” which many dudes believe for years!
@clockofash There are no words for that!
I saw a Buzzfeed post (I think it was Buzzfeed) where they were talking about tax on sanitary items and some guy was up in arms about the thought of no tax on items that he believed were for women who can’t hold their pee. Not sure if he was legit or just trolling (gosh, I hope it is trolling).
I will confess that I learned the biology of the many female holes from, of all places, Oprah. (I may have napped through quite a few of my biology classes in school, and therefore missed quite a bit)
Her sound advice for those to whom this was news was to go find a hand held mirror and to take a good long look down there – because every woman should know her own body.
@MsBlueStreak Wow! Good on Oprah! Leading the way back then 🙂
