To think it’s not just me who gets a weird Fanjo feeling

[Ahardyfool]

My daughter just showed me where she cut herself shaving in the shower last night. She came downstairs yesterday and announced that she’d caused the bathroom to look “a bit like a crime scene” and this also brought on the same bodily response. When she showed me her wound just now it happened again.
DD noticed my reaction and claimed to know what I was experiencing.
we both describe it as a bit like when you go over one of those bumps in the road that make your tummy somersault briefly…except this is felt in the vagina region.
Why the hell would that happen? Does anyone else experience this? Is it our cervix clamping shut in some kind of anti preocreative response to danger - albeit a bit OTT a response?

I remember as a kid my little brother saw something scary and said ‘that made my bum shiver’.
Both me and my mum knew exactly what he meant as we get it too. I get it when I’m high up and even looking at pictures of heights.

I get this. In fact, reading through the thread is making me have it. It feels like my vagina/perunium... don't know the spelling? is being pulled up from indide. It feels tingly almost. It's the weirdest feeling. Not unpleasant, but the sight/topic is always gory or awful. I'm also relieved it's not just me.

Yes I get this. It's like the sensation of your hairs standing on end but felt in the entirely hairless region around the vulva. Not in any way arousing but I think it's part of the adrenaline fight-or-flight prep we experience when we perceive danger.

My knees feel like jelly if I see blood. Etc

I'm so glad I found this thread, I always thought I was just a bit weird! Thank you op!
I also sometimes get the sensation like my fanny goes completely numb like it has gone to sleep!

I get this too! But I also feel like my whole bum area goes cold (like being plunged into freezing water) at the sight of danger. Sometimes I will physically sweat afterwards too depending how scary it was.

Heights give me sweaty palms but that's different!

My DP gets it from seeing Piers Morgan.

What is javelin arse

It's that sharp, sudden cramping lots of women get, often around their period. It's like a contraction from hell, you have to stop and breathe through it. It's like someone's rammed a javelin up your arse and is twisting it, hence the name.

I don't know if men ever get it. I haven't heard my husband complaining of such discomfort, and he would if he did.

If you search, there's been dozens of threads about this over the years. they come up regularly :)

Neither does mine, especially at the sight of a (presumably) young girl who’s had an accident while showering…

I get it in my nipples! Feels like breastmilk letting down. If we’re watching telly and someone hurts themselves DP will quite often ask how my nipples are coping 😂

I get the foot sweats from heights.

My GM used to call that feeling the fanny jingles. I had never associated it with an actual fanny until now!

I know exactly what you are describing……. It’s as if I wrote this post !!

I get this when my daughter does the splits.
Almost like she's part of me and I feel it.
I've always found it very odd!

Yes!! I call it ‘pants feeling’ which I got from greys anatomy when they were describing this exact thing.

🤣😂🤣

Yep but mine goes right down my legs too. Usually brought on my seeing a mangled dead animal in the street, my partner talking about a nail going through his foot etc. When my son was young he would describe it as his bumhole tingling. He’s now 17 and if he gets the ick I ask if his bumhole is tingling!

It’s a self protection thing, you’re hiding/closing your vulnerable places.

Same here 😂

I wondered if other people had this, I get a cold tummy flip feeling when I see gory or icky things.

This.
Animals defecate for fight or flight. Probs something deep rooted caveman like- sorry cave-person like.

A womb boom. Like an internal cringe that is felt below the stomach. I reckon if the ick feeling was pure fear instead that is what would cause you to piss yourself.

YES!!! I've googled it before but couldn't find anything. It happens to me when I'm high up and look down. I'm not scared of heights either. I find it bizarre. I am so glad it's not just me. And it felt like a question I couldn't ask people in real life 😂

Fanjo? Why???
