My teenage daughter asked me if it was normal for her partner to always have a semi 😳 Always. She just noticed all the time and others had said too. I said I don't know, might be a medical thing. I fumbled my way out without having to say, well maybe he just has a big penis. I couldn't bring myself to say that 😂
Even now, I'm thinking is this an thing to say on here🤔

@Spookymormonhelldream medium is beige with a hint of vomit green. I'm not a child but I think I have Synesthesia.

Not a question but ds3 was convinced that he had a different dad from my older 2. He hasn't, dh just grew a beard when ds2 was a baby.

My youngest watched the episode of waffle the wonder dog when the little girl video calls her "real dad" in America just before lockdown. He wanted to know if he had a "real dad in America" and he used to ask every man we saw on zoom of they were his " real dad"!

'How do you stop the poo coming out when the wee comes out of your bum?'

How do you spell 'pple'? Yes, 'pple'. I want to spell 'apple' but I already know how to spell 'a' so I only need to know how to spell 'pple'.
