'Serenity'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Because something tells me that one of these days, Franny's gonna return from the bathroom proudly announcing, "my butt! my crotch!"
Tell her it's her batty and her pumpum. She'll cause any Jamaicans in the room to clutch their pearls and reach for their smelling salts, but what are the odds?
AT least she'll be proud!
Go, mom!
I was busy googling "chicken genitalia" and getting no love, but thankfully no chicken porn either. The right search string was "chicken reproduction" and now we all know that the chicken has no vagina, but rather an oviduct. But male chickens do have sperm. here were no details about the form of chicken testes.
Google images on "chicken testes" gets me a bunch of cell slides pix, and unidentifiable photo of a dissected chicken crotch.
I'ma gonna go on faith that they're there.
There was a child in a daycare I worked at who had a rather nasty trike accident. She'd happily tell anyone who asked what happened (she was still sporting stitches and bruises) within earshot that she hurt her palms and her knees and her nose and her clitoris and urethra.
Which then got all the other kids asking.
The male possesses two testes, along the back, near the anterior ends of the kidneys. They are elliptical shaped and light yellow in color.
Each ductus deferens opens into a small bump, or papilla, which is on the dorsal wall of the cloaca. The papilla serve as the copulatory organ.
Dear lord I am an information geek. Here's the dry, scientific lowdown on chicken reproductive anatomy. Yes, boy chickens have a penis. And actually, the end of the oviduct IS called the vagina. [link]
Oh, sorry, Burrell. I forgot there was an Actual Issue. I don't see anything wrong with "butt" or "crotch," unless you think they're too vulgar for little kids? Bottom and, um, something else?
Tell her it's her batty and her pumpum. She'll cause any Jamaicans in the room to clutch their pearls and reach for their smelling salts, but what are the odds?
Hmm, the odds might be better than you'd think.
"Bottom" is our general catchall term. I think that's a safe one.
Also, I see we are ALL information geeks. Which, come to think of it, I knew.
