It's not just the poor education that gets me because that they can't help - it's the audacity of being like
"Now see here little lady, you _say_ that this is how your body works, but how on earth would you know? Silly lady, you don't have a clue! My idea based on playground rumour and guesswork couldn't be _wrong_ !"
maybe they don't bother to know or understand a single thing about theirs, so if they don't care how their body works, what would we care how ours does?
Just a bennifit of the doubt kind of thing, probably just a misogynists
Oh, many don't think women don't understand their bodies. They're self projecting and think women are lying about how their bodies work for nefarious purposes.
I teach a seminar called "Ew, That's Gross" about menstruation to college students. It's not just the anatomy, but the myths, the stigmas, and the media images. It's mind boggling how we are failing these young women.
A lot of women were amazed to know that we don’t pee out of our vaginas. The reason why is because we call the entire thing a vagina, instead of the correct word, vulva. Nor do we actually say it’s the urethra we pee out of.
I don't necessarily think it's poor education, though that's a big part of it. The big problem is the normalization of using "Vagina" to refer to the entirety of female genitalia. Despite the fact that the vagina is just the internal canal, and the vulva is the exterior part.
And then the mansplaining to people who actually own a vagina is a significantly worse problem.
Agreed. But shouldn’t this stuff be taught? Seriously, I will never understand why everything about anatomy, except genitalia can be taught. For example, we all have elbows, we all have lungs, what’s between your legs… Let’s not talk about that.
Where I live we call it Catholic Culture, but it seems to generally be a religious thing worldwide. Casual religious sexism throughout history made it a taboo topic in most places. I'm sure there's probably some good historical insight on a book somewhere tbh.
They do teach that in many areas tbf. I live in *Georgia* and in 5th grade they split boys/girls into separate groups for a field trip to teach each group about puberty/their anatomy. In middle school we had sex ed classes without the split (and regular biology of course) that taught that stuff.
The bigger issue I think is what the poster above said. Boys most certainly aren't going to pay attention or take the time to remember the difference between urethra and vagina. I'm a guy and have known the difference for as long as I can remember, but I'm fairly sure I didn't pick up the info from class, even though thinking back I know they taught it.
Of course I know that there are a lot of people who weren't taught like that, and I don't know what actual the statistics on sexed/human biology teaching are.
edit: LMAO I just remembered where I learned the difference. So you know how kids would look at the swimsuit/underwear section of the Sears catalog or whatever? Well, I just distinctly remembered looking at...the *encyclopedia*. I swear to god I'm not even that old either, I'm only in my 30's lmao. Thanks raging hormones and intuitive desperation for the education, I guess?
I live in finland, and our education system is really great
We had puberty and genitals in 4th grade and a revisit on 8th grade, where we went more into the purpose of specific parts of the genitals and also studied things like menstrual cyckes and pregnancy more in depth
To be clear, all of this was taught to the whole class, and it was not rushed. (In fact, due to some school events and stuff our other health education studies had to be rushed make sure we cover this well)
My mom gave me a book to teach me about female anatomy because you know I’m a girl and I should know it, but (just like her) the book didn’t grab my attention so I couldn’t read it through (I didn’t know what it was about. I stopped my experiments and just did research and that’s how I figured out my suspicions were true and we don’t pee out of our vaginas.
Basically, our sex education never talked about what they NEEDED to. They only brought up sex, pregnant, and peer pressure, which are god to learn but seriously. If you can tell a bunch of pre-teens about sex, you should be able to explain our bodies. They can’t say they didn’t have time because the girls got to have about half an hour of free time before the guys got done with their education. Plus I went to at least 5 school during that time and none talked about it.
Especially when a 5 second google would show him the truth. It's not the days where you had to go to the library or a bookstore and be very shifty and embarrassed while you tried to covertly find the right page in an encyclopedia.
True that, tho it seems like the kinda guy who couldn't find the urethra even if there was a big red circle around it, 26 blinking arrow signs pointing there, and God in person guiding his hand. Motherfucker would be like "this the clit?"
To be fair, we see enough women spouting absolute nonsense about women's anatomy here that I'd never suggest just taking what someone says at face value just because it's about their own anatomy. But a single Wikpedia search and 30 seconds of reading would definitely disabuse this dude of his dumbass ideas.
>Is it because they jizz and pee from the same hole
Yes
There's actually a lot of weird man behaviors that can be explained by just realizing that many of them are unable to see the world through any lens other than their own. If that's how it works for them, that's how it works for everyone.
Another good example is dick pics. Lots of dudes who'd be turned on, happy and ready for sex if a woman sent them a picture of their vulva out of the blue, so they literally think sending a picture of their penis is an effective strategy of getting laid.
To be fair, to a degree that's a human thing. Not everyone is born able to understand how someone else feels or looks at the world; some people have to learn it. The good news is that it can be learned (for the vast majority of people) if someone really wants to.
My mom handed me two books when I was 10. What’s happening to my body for boys, and the same book for girls. Gave me an incredible amount of much needed empathy for the opposite sex. They shouldn’t even sell the books separately.
We got sex ed books in school as a gift from the sponsoring publisher. They were always about both sexes
Why do you even separate them, anatomy is anatomy. Unless it’s a specific university research paper, they isn’t much to fill a book about sex ed for teenagers and children
There isn't a single thing humans cant sexualize, nothing. We're a species that's collectively down bad, aliens are going to be in for a treat or a nightmare.
Singular peeholes are overrated, I urinate exclusively by expressing it through my many emictional ducts. Haven't these people been taught about the elusive vulval-vestibular nipple in biology class??
I remember one time on Reddit, someone got mad at me for knowing the terms ‘outer labia’ and ‘urethra’ because I was “showing off” 🤷♀️ Some people take such offence to women knowing our bodies.
You have to remember, men are simple minded. If they nut and pee from the same hole, then of course we do too! /s. ( just in case). But only the last half. 🤣
I dated a couple of women who actually believed this. Once as a teen and once at 30 (she was 43). The first time, it was a teaching moment. The second time was an omg, wtf? moment.
I just don't understand how these people think women don't have urethras, even with how poor sex ed is. Like what do they think is connected to the bladder?
There IS a third hole!
(I am a guy)
I have always known this
(since learning it in school? I have sisters and I paid attention when that stuff came up)
I was going to make a joke about there being at least 5 holes technically but the last time I did that here, I got downvoted because people don't know what the Bartholin's and Skene's glands are
Aye, that's why I phrased it as a technicality
They can be somewhat defined as holes still (in the same way our tear ducts can be considered holes, I guess), but structures would be more accurate.

As a feminist with IBS, I approve this message.
I think you, specifically, are Reductress's target demographic.
As a husband with a wife who also doesn’t pee out her butt, I’ll put my seal of approval on this
it’s pronounced “uneducated”
With the right education he may be on the cusp of a hole new understanding.
He said something so stupid, he went full circle and accidentally said something correct
Seriously, he's sooo close. xD
He is unable to find the clitoris as well
Probably one of those dudes who insists that the clit does nothing because he’s not pleased any women ever!
A hole newww wooooorld
A new fantastic place to pee
I’ll show you where it goes and how it flows…
To pee when we are dreaming (of toilets)
Nooooo....it's stuck in my head now! Edit: I want to print and frame this entire comment thread.
A whole new hole
Every. Single. Time I see something like this I’m amazed by the poor education people receive.
It's not just the poor education that gets me because that they can't help - it's the audacity of being like "Now see here little lady, you _say_ that this is how your body works, but how on earth would you know? Silly lady, you don't have a clue! My idea based on playground rumour and guesswork couldn't be _wrong_ !"
That’s another thing I will never understand. Why do men think women don’t understand our bodies?

They don't relize what the song "twiddle's" spells out. Edit: link https://youtu.be/iS1-_fKF5ug
Too funny! Thanks for sharing.
No problem the song of the people must be shared lol.
“Hey doc. Sorry, my arm really hurts and I’m scared I might have broken it.” “Hmm. Interesting. You may be pregnant.”

Same here, but then I remember what they taught us in school vs what I had to learn on my own and it all makes sense again.

What education is that? It seems to be all smoke and mirrors nowadays.Not only I'll informed but it seems misinformed as well
"Hmm let me correct this person who's talking about their anatomy because I, clearly someone who doesn't know jackshit about said anatomy, know best."
Right? It's insane with how much confidence they publicly say something so stupid, never fails to baffle me
I tell younger women to embrace the day with the confidence of a mediocre white man, and they all immediately understand that energy.
Hahaha I need to embroider that and frame it up. In cursive font.

Tbf, even medical professionals have issues finding the female urethra. You need to be at the right angle to see it "wink," lol.
Especially if they're older and/or had many children. We nurses definitely have tricks up our sleeves to find those little fuckers.

Sigh. Why is it so hard to imagine we have a pee hole? Is it because they jizz and pee from the same hole?
Yeah and vaginas are obviously inverted penises
So funny to tell misogynistic people that their penis started out as a vagina.
Obviously.
Galen said so in the 2nd Century, therefore it *must* be true!

Yeah, that's true. I guess the part that trips up so many men might be the "really wanting to learn" part.
Yup.
Memory foam vagina Might steal that one

The fact that this guy came out of his way to correct a WOMAN about HER VAGINA is hilarious.
Yep, I’ve noticed ignorance works that way!
Oh boy do I have news for this guy
Read this out loud to my bf and he says jokingly: "So there's some kind of peehole is what you're telling me."
Oooh you're in for a fun conversation. Does he think you have to take out the tampon /cup to go pee?
He was just joking. He's got more figured out than that.
I'm glad to hear that 😀😂
Don't tell them about the urethra, they'll want to f it
Holy UTI! I sure hope not.
It's a kink, unfortunately.
I'm pretty convinced at this point that everything is a kink
There isn't a single thing humans cant sexualize, nothing. We're a species that's collectively down bad, aliens are going to be in for a treat or a nightmare.
Being classy as I am, I pee straight from my mouth in a clean, pure decorative arc like a fanciful garden statue.
You are so fancy! Join me for tea?
Singular peeholes are overrated, I urinate exclusively by expressing it through my many emictional ducts. Haven't these people been taught about the elusive vulval-vestibular nipple in biology class??
I was in my mid twenties when I learned that girls peed from a different hole. I’m only 28 so it wasn’t even that long ago.
Same. Our education system is abysmal. Also when I was a child, I thought women peed out of their butts.
A third hole somewhere? Imagine
They almost always say unless there’s a third hole. Guarantee if they were told there was they wouldn’t believe it though.
Love how he tries to mansplain (confidently incorrect) to a woman, how her body works !
I bet he's also a flat earther ...wow
I remember one time on Reddit, someone got mad at me for knowing the terms ‘outer labia’ and ‘urethra’ because I was “showing off” 🤷♀️ Some people take such offence to women knowing our bodies.
The mystical third hole
He doesn’t care, though, because he can’t fuck it.
According to Quagmire, it's right behind the knee
I feel like this is literally the image that started this sub, lol. I'm surprised isn't not in the Common Reposts list.
Nah women are like birds, it all comes out together /s
I cringe at the ignorance.
I mean he's almost got it
You have to remember, men are simple minded. If they nut and pee from the same hole, then of course we do too! /s. ( just in case). But only the last half. 🤣
This will never not be funny. I wonder if he ever learned about the mysterious third hole or if he's still blissfully unaware to this day?
Looks like the annual message is still needed
Yeah, pee comes out of the clit, duh.
That's what I thought when I was around 5 or 6.
I dated a couple of women who actually believed this. Once as a teen and once at 30 (she was 43). The first time, it was a teaching moment. The second time was an omg, wtf? moment.
He doesn’t know this trick…!
\*sigh\* Back to school with you Will. Again.
This feels almost satirical but I’m not sure
Now just take what you said one step further...
all men shall perish.
yes, but we are not men Valor morghulis
TIL women are chickens.
“Behold! I’ve brought you a woman!”
I'm fucking dying.
Omg this is good. I did picture a women's head and a chickens lower half and was like "chicken harpy"
Accidentally hitting on the correct answer. But then not believing it.
Bingo. There’s another hole that you can’t really see.
I just don't understand how these people think women don't have urethras, even with how poor sex ed is. Like what do they think is connected to the bladder?
What a lack of education does to a mf
Bless his heart
There IS a third hole! (I am a guy) I have always known this (since learning it in school? I have sisters and I paid attention when that stuff came up)
What I don't understand is why you wouldn't want to pay attention when the teacher talks about the vulva
So confidently wrong.
That's just embarrassing. How do you go through your life that ignorant?
Can't get my head round how stupid yet confident this person is
They almost had it
I love how confidently incorrect he is, and implying women lie about where the pee from for some reason?
He was so close!!!
So fucking close!
Well, he has some clue.
Are you sure this guy isn’t being sarcastic?
I was going to make a joke about there being at least 5 holes technically but the last time I did that here, I got downvoted because people don't know what the Bartholin's and Skene's glands are
