Dying laughing over that sub name. When I was in high school I had a male classmate who was actively having sex with his girlfriend (not in class!) and he asked our small group of girls, dead serious, "How can you pee if you have a tampon in?" (and he didn't mean how not to get the string wet -- he thought it was the same hole). THAT sounds like a case of bad (at) women's anatomy.

I had a friend who's a year older than me who thought it was possible to accidentally stick one of those monistat applicator things into her peehole. I'm 28.

I was also reading up on menstrual cups a few years ago and one article had a diagram of the female reproductive system shown. Under the 'cervix' section it said something like 'controls the flow of urine' and I was like please god no. To make things worse later on in the article it said when a woman is pregnant a mucus plug forms over the cervix to keep the baby and fluids in. So, apparently women don't pee for 9 months straight while pregnant. Because the cervix controls urine flow and all.

In both of these instances I wasn't even upset. I was sad that female anatomy is so misunderstood by so many people.
