Sperm and Wee

Just wanted to know something. Once dh delivers his sperm to me and I stay with legs in air for about 20 minutes, after I normally like to go for a wee. Obviously sperm comes out but I don't understand how people say spem lives for up to 5 days when you "wee" it out?

Sorry if being thick!!!

really MB? Girls too??

Blandmum · 26/09/2006 14:12

carolin, yes, hard to credit, isn't it?

When I was a teenager, a friends mother asked her when tampons were placed! WTF

Blandmum · 26/09/2006 14:14

But then I have also had sixth formers tell me that the sun is alive. And a very agle child in year 11 thought that rat poison was poison made by a rat!

loads of kids ask me if you can eat kidney when we do a kidney dissection. I have had a child of 15 refuse to touch a potato because it was 'gross'

Never dull teaching!

I can understand kids not knowing about the 3 holes thing, even girls, because the urethra is not exactly obvious is it ? Whereas the vaginal opening and the anus ARE obvious. Cannot fathom adult women not knowing about it though

Bozza · 26/09/2006 14:17

I think I was quite old before I realised the 3 holes thing.

CarolinaMoon · 26/09/2006 14:19

MB - you'd think someone would tell them before they get to secondary school wouldn't you?

Blandmum · 26/09/2006 14:21

we tell them in year 7! and it still doesn't sink in for some

beckybrastraps · 26/09/2006 14:23

The urethra may not be obvious, but it's output is. Hence "wee-hole", and then you can move on to baby-hole after.

marthamoo · 26/09/2006 14:26

I thought sperm only survived 3 days...?

So next time I'm feeling frisky I shall fix dh with a come hither look and mutter in a sultry fashion..."darling, I need a delivery tonight..."

NomDePlume · 26/09/2006 14:28

Yes of course the 'output' is obvious, but if you are just having a wee as normal and not splaying yourself open (yikes) then it looks like urine is coming from the same area. Given that the urethra is so teeny and the vagina so blindingly obvious, I can see how some people/children who haven't been told would just assume that it comes from the 'big hole'

beckybrastraps · 26/09/2006 14:29

Oops - its.

Bozza · 26/09/2006 14:30

ndp very sensible posts.

beckybrastraps · 26/09/2006 14:30

That's why you tell them there are three holes. And not just tell them about the vagina when they ask about it. Put the emphasis on function, not appearance I say.

NomDePlume · 26/09/2006 14:33

Indeed Becky, but I was talking about people who hadn't been taught the 3 hole system () as a young 'un.

NomDePlume · 26/09/2006 14:34

(thanks Bozza!)

beckybrastraps · 26/09/2006 14:37

Well, we're in agreement then . And frankly, I'm not surprised at the shocking levels of ingnorance after having read the "girly bits" threads. They make me shudder. I always want to shout "WHAT do you call their doodah/tuppence/fou-fou/". I bet some of the time the child is asking about where wee comes out.

foxinsocks · 26/09/2006 14:38

lol at becky getting her wee-hole point in!

admit it, you've been dying to have an opportunity to do that since the front bottom/vagina/wee-hole debate!

foxinsocks · 26/09/2006 14:38

x-post!

beckybrastraps · 26/09/2006 14:39

I must take a step back from these threads!

CheesyFeet · 26/09/2006 14:56

"pre-cum" cleaning out wee - well I suppose it stands to reason I suppose, although I hadn't really thought about it before.

DH has now had his last blow job though (poor dh )

NomDePlume · 26/09/2006 14:56

'hahaha', and 'ewwwwwww, good point' in equal measure there CF

CheesyFeet · 26/09/2006 14:59

I know NdP

It's going to play on my mind for a loooong time

Poor poor dh

You don't have to leave your legs in the air for all that time post intercourse either - that's just a myth. Enought sperm will get into the cervix from where they will not escape.

Flossam · 26/09/2006 17:53

It is bloomin hard to find the 'wee hole' I can tell you having looked for more than most (several mn'ers recalling the horror or catheterisation as I type!!!) .

sugarfree · 26/09/2006 20:30

Tell 'em to cough Flossam,the urethra sometimes 'winks' at you!
