I too quiz my partner on the anatomy of genitalia when we're hanging out

Uno Reverse Card:

• Tell her to point to the Vas Deferens
• "We're not so different, you and I"
• High-five
• True gender-equality finally accomplished

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?

The search still go on ✨

idgaf what "science" says.

It's. 👏 Still. 👏 A. 👏 Planet. 👏

For some guys it might well be light years away.

Isn't it near Uranus?

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.

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!

I know it says bf (which I will assume means boyfriend)

But I'd you read the studies:

45% of men aged 18-25 had never approached a woman in person for a date

29% of all men said they never approached a woman in person for a date before

27% said it had been more than one year since they approached a woman for a date

Pair that with the quality of education and it is of no surprise that a boyfriend doesn't know what they never knew existed in the first place

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.

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

That's the flappy part!

"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."

It's so much better to offer a demonstration.

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.
