I mean penis has obvious advantages, like piss-aim and not bleeding. Also looks funny. But what does the vagina have? Like seriously???

Doesn't randomly go erect during middle school powerpoint presentations

[–] felsiq@piefed.zip 73 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Then maybe you shouldn’t be teaching middle school???

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 11 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I did actually consider becoming a teacher ages back :3. but then I realized you have to be smart for that

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 20 points 4 months ago (3 children)

No you don't, you just have to be smarter than those students, and that's not hard, because they're stupid. If they're outpacing you, you just downshift to a lower grade, until you find the grade level where you're smarter than most.

And for the kids that are smarter than you, you just bully them until they shut up, or transfer to a different school.

[–] TabbsTheBat@pawb.social 10 points 4 months ago

Not wrong lol. But you need to be smart to pass the classes to become a teacher in the first place, which really is the hard part :3. I looked into what I needed to be accepted into the courses when I was looking into what to study, and my grades didn't meet the requirements

[–] flubba86@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

When I was little. I thought my parents were the smartest people in the world. Then when I went to school, I thought my teachers were the smartest people in the world, because they were way smarter than my parents. When I got to high school, I thought my maths and English and science teachers where the smartest people in the world, because they were way smarter than my primary school teachers.

Now 20 years later, I'm friends with lots of people who teach high school, and secretly they're not that smart. All they need to do is learn the material from the curriculum and teach it to the students.

Enormous respect for what they do, I couldn't do it, but it's not a job that requires higher than average intelligence.

The Clitoris has the highest nerve ending density of any external organ so it probably feels the best when licked. It might feel so good it's unfathomable as a male and most of us will never know.

PS: The clitoris is part of the vulva and not vagina but I thought it fits your question.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago (5 children)

As someone with a clitoris, sadly a (likely rather small) population of us still will never know. Mine seems to have come out nonfunctional from the factory. Sometimes I wish I could feel sexual pleasure like how a majority of the planet seems to.

Have you checked whether there’s still warranty coverage?

Self cleaning, self lubricating, no vulnerable dangly bits, doesn't choke you when you go down, minimal awkward bumps or bulges in clothing, extra room for smuggling drugs, multiple orgasms.

Misogyny probably originates from a place of jealousy, tbh. They take a little more maintenance, but vaginas are absolutely the superior sex organ.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but you can’t do helicopters

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I most certainly can lol. I just recognize that vaginas are superior lol

I'm so jealous of how many skittles girls are able to carry. I can only fit like 9 in my foreskin.

I don't like the sound of that

It's internal, makes for a more elegant silhouette.
Much harder to injure.
More aerodynamic.

You can use it to sneak way more snacks into a movie theater with a vagina than a penis. A penis fits fewer than three boxes of Junior Mints.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 10 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Can confirm, my penis doesn't fit a single box of junior mints, that's less than three.

Well for starters I’ve never found a penis that I can stick MY penis in.

Look up docking, there's a wider world out there 😁

It doesn't have sensitive bits dangling underneath where you might sit on them in a careless moment.

Doesn't hurt as much when it gets hit by something.

Sex toys for vaginas are simpler, easier to maintain and even DIY. Also, more socially acceptable in big parts of the world.

They really can take pounding.

In the other hand, dicks can take a beating though.

[–] MadhuGururajan@programming.dev 10 points 4 months ago

As a dude, I guess for women its flat down there/No need to tuck it in/ be careful.

Although any discussion about thr disadvantages is silly if we don't count the balls and then they are mostly outside there to screw us men over.

[–] vorpuni@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 8 points 4 months ago

Self-cleaning and lubricating.
