Well, yeah. I mean, dude, look in a mirror.
Oh, you mean the lava lamp thing? Yeah, I could watch that all day and laugh.
Lava lumps
Tears of laughter… lava lamp…
Penises go Boing.
Vaginas cannot replicate this feat. Pussy farts are the best they can manage, and boy can they be awkward.
Yeah, South Park is trying with the queef jokes, but mostly they fall flat.
The Vagina Monologues had some comedic bits, I understand, but mostly social commentary. Or so I’ve heard. I never saw the show.
So much for penis envy.
Quoth Scumpup:
I think this is it. For comparison, the uvula is also inherently funny.
I, said the little leatherwing bat
I’ll tell you the reason that
The reason that I fly by night
Because I lost my heart’s delight
Because breaking taboos adds a frisson that can be funny, but if something is too taboo, or you break the taboo too blatantly, it’s not funny.
Penises are less taboo than vaginas. Calling someone a cock or a dick is less of an insult than calling them a cunt. Depicting or talking about penises is less verboten than depicting or talking about vaginas, particularly in mixed company.
All this stuff about it being because of differences in how they look and what they do is unconvincing. There isn’t anything inherently funny about penises. We wouldn’t find something that did what a penis did funny if it wasn’t a penis (or something that looked like one).
Further, women talking intimately with other women, or their boyfriend perhaps, do joke about vaginas. It can be funny in that context because talking about vaginas amongst gender or sexual intimates doesn’t cross the line of being too taboo.
Pussy.
So this may be a little off topic but when I was a student nurse one of the things they taught us, but not with much detail, was how to clean the various dainty bits of both men and women. Women, not problem. Men, at least the circumcised ones, were a bit wiggley and slidey, but not to awful. Uncircumcised men, however, GOOD GOD WHAT A NIGHTMARE! The whole rectracting the foreskin to clean underneath then moving it back into place IS NOT AS EASY AS IT SOUNDS OR LOOKS IN THE BOOK! Why did nobody tell me this?
The first time I tried this I was just … the WORST at it. No traction, the skin just slid around, AND THE MORE I TRIED THE WORSE IT GOT! I am still having nightmares. Give me a ‘female perineal area’ to clean anyday. At least they stay in one place when you try to wipe em’.
I need a valium
Like trying to clean one of these?
Try cleaning it enough and it’ll settle down.
Oh, I KNOW! And you’re (by which I mean, I’m) standing there thinking, “these things are a **lot **easier to handle when they’re hard…ohgodohgodohgod, DON’T get hard, that would be WAY worse!”
Why is it that the penis is funny and the vagina is not?
The potential for blue waffles. Google it if you dare.
Oh goodness, no, they’re adorable. Like funny little naked animals.
IT’S A TRAP!
Extra text for caps.
I think this is supposed to be a joke about Kindergarten Cop:
“Boys have a penis and girls have a vagina.”
In fact, they bear a striking resemblance to the naked mole rat.
I just raised this vital topic with my fiancée (I happened to have just stepped out of the shower at the time, which…aided the discussion, in a sense.)
Her verdict? “It’s funny…because it looks like a plant.”
Swell. I have a plant on my pelvis.
