Wait, what, you don't have a cloaca?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Way to advertise you don't know how to find the c-spot. So on-brand.

... Maybe they are Hist sap repositories?

There probably actually is some lore on this, and knowing Elder Scrolls / Bethesda, it is probably inconsistent/contradictory.

Uno Reverse Card:

  • Tell her to point to the Vas Deferens

idgaf what "science" says.

It's. 👏 Still. 👏 A. 👏 Planet. 👏

[–] Silic0n_Alph4@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Easy: it was once on the island of Lesbos, but it’s now in its rightful place in the British Museum and there is shall remain!

Oh look, another anti-male post on Lemmy. This shit needs to stop. If it was a "women are so dumb" meme, it'd be reported and removed for being anti-female/misogyny/"I'm a woman and don't like it, so remove it" complaints, and the poster would be banned.

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

My advice is to just let yourself die on the inside. Because they only way to not see this content over and over is to go into alt right circles and we can all agree it's better to be dead then republican

[–] catty@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

Or to actually speak out against such abuse and to not let it be normalised.

Oh no, being against it upsets some women who are used to unconditionally hating on men in their little sycophant abusive circles without having any comebacks.

Oh well, anyway...

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You're just assuming this is anti-male, without any context it might as well be a complaint about lack of sex education.

[–] catty@lemmy.world 0 points 6 days ago

But we both know it isn't.

No one really knows. Some even say it doesn't exist.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 95 points 1 week ago

The correct answer is: "I forgot, you should show me."

To be fair, it would be easier if English had kept the English terms for anatomy.

But for some reason everyone decided to only use Latin and Greek derived words.

Like seriously. Nearly every time I look at Wikipedia for anything, English articles only ever use scientific terms hardly anyone will find useful.

Example:

Wolf's entire biological taxonomical tree from species to order. Both the translated German Wikipedia title and the English one:

Species: Wolf <> Wolf

Genus: Wolf- and Jackal-like <> Canis

Tribe: True Dogs <> Canini

Family: Dogs <> Canidae

Suborder: Doglike <> Caniformia

Order: Predatory animal <> Carnivora

Ask someone what "Caniformia" is and most would probably think you're talking about some region on the US West Coast. Ask someone what "Doglike" refers to and most would probably guess reasonably correct.

Sharing a world with another term with less precise meaning is a bug not a feature

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The fact that the entire medical industry does this. I like how ChubbyEmu on Youtube will do the vocabulary resurrection "Hyponatremia. Hypo meaning low, natra meaning sodium, emia, presence in blood. Low sodium presence in blood" and then he'll use the English phrase for the rest of the video. "Because he had low blood sodium..."

[–] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 30 points 1 week ago (6 children)

The entire medical industry does this so that in every language on the planet they are talking about the same thing and know that they are talking about the same thing and that there hasn't been a translation error. Hyponatremia is hyponatremia no matter what language you speak.

To be fair, the majority of women, who have said bits, don't know what they are either, most seem to think it is all vagina.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 36 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I mean, colloquially it is.

"Is it that one over there? I can't really tell since it is not visible with this light pollution. Even though there is only one Libra constellation, you have have been confused by Ursa Major and the Ursa Minor, where some stars are very visible. Oh you said labia."

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 37 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"Labia? I don't think that section of the sky is visible this time of year. Or, maybe it's behind the full moon.

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 27 points 1 week ago

It’s southern hemisphere for sure

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 48 points 1 week ago

I'm not Jewish, so I don't know much about menorahs in general.

For some guys it might well be light years away.

But what if it's all flappy parts?

https://www.forbes.com/sites/debgordon/2023/10/21/90-of-americans-feel-unprepared-by-sex-education-new-survey-shows/

I mean, the state of sex education in the US is abysmal, misinformation and just no information is so rampant that it's rather silly to expect the average young adult to know the detailed anatomic names.

In my life so far, I've dated plently of women who didn't know anatomical names, or with a few, even basic signs of what a vaginal health problem looks like.

With one, I had to deduce that her described urinary problems were possibly actually bacterial vaginosis when I uh, also noticed the smell.

She got extremely pissed off, thinking I was insulting her, thinking I was saying she had an STD/STI... a week later she's back from the doctor and yep, I was right, now she's on antibiotics.

How many women can, off the top of their head, identify the vas deferens, cowper's gland, or know that testicular torsion is even a thing?

[–] tux7350@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Yeah its awful. Ive had the BV situation happen with two different partners. And God forbid, you bring up anything thats considered outside the heterosexual spectrum in an educational setting. Could you imagine if men were taught about the possibilities of the prostate in a judgement free environment?

[–] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I was this close to also mentioning that yeah lol, turns out any guy can have pleasure and potentially an orgasm from proper prostate stimulation...

And you don't even have to be attracted to other dudes to be able to do that, and enjoy it!

Pegging and toys exist!

But again, nope, not allowed by heteronormativity.

To go with another personal anecdote... different girl I was dating at one time, who considered herself pansexual... well, I broached the idea of using an anal toy... and she, again I remind you, a self described pansexual... just started calling me gay, constantly made buttsex jokes and quips all the time, started trying to get me to hook up with dudes.

WTF?!

I respect her gender and sexual identity/preferences, she doesn't respect mine at all, while she's literally wearing rainbow flag pins and going to every pride event in town and constantly making IG posts about how everyone should be more inclusive and accepting?

Sorry to rant but yeah, the hypocrisy is strong and multifaceted in this realm.

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I couldn't tell you the Latin names for my own bits, either.

Edit: that said, I might not know all the street names, but I can still drive you home, and I'm not averse to asking for directions.
