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?
Yeah its awful. Ive had the BV situation happen with two different partners. And God forbid, you bring up anything thats considered outside the heterosexual spectrum in an educational setting. Could you imagine if men were taught about the possibilities of the prostate in a judgement free environment?
I was this close to also mentioning that yeah lol, turns out any guy can have pleasure and potentially an orgasm from proper prostate stimulation...
And you don't even have to be attracted to other dudes to be able to do that, and enjoy it!
Pegging and toys exist!
But again, nope, not allowed by heteronormativity.
To go with another personal anecdote... different girl I was dating at one time, who considered herself pansexual... well, I broached the idea of using an anal toy... and she, again I remind you, a self described pansexual... just started calling me gay, constantly made buttsex jokes and quips all the time, started trying to get me to hook up with dudes.
WTF?!
I respect her gender and sexual identity/preferences, she doesn't respect mine at all, while she's literally wearing rainbow flag pins and going to every pride event in town and constantly making IG posts about how everyone should be more inclusive and accepting?
Sorry to rant but yeah, the hypocrisy is strong and multifaceted in this realm.
