Junk

Here are some fun items from a search on Uterine Fibroids.

(from the NIH)
Sometimes, health care providers find fibroids during a routine gynecological exam.

  • During this exam, the health care provider checks out the size of your uterus by putting two fingers of one hand into the vagina, while applying light pressure to your abdomen with the other hand.

  • If you have fibroids, your uterus may feel larger-than-normal; or, if you have fibroids, your uterus may extend into places it should not.

"may extend into places it should not" makes it sound like it might go out for a stroll alone in a seedy part of town late at night. It'd probably be smoking a cigarette, leaning against a wall covered in graffitti, skirt hitched up to its, uh...oh hell. Don't know my uterus anatomy. Fortunately, the search also turned up Sally. No reason to call her Sally other than that her hair just kind of says "Sally" to me.

I was immediately struck by her Mona Lisa like smile. Enigmatic, perhaps even a bit puzzled. We might consider whether or not she is wondering "Where the fuck are my nipples?"

Still, Sally does not seem displeased to be here - blue shaded and nippleless before us. What an accomodating gal.

Notice how the second and third fingers of the left hand ever so slightly curl to show a subtle, feminine vulnerability. Or possibly this pose reveals a downwards gesture of the index finger, suggesting the viewer may be descending into a lowly state of existence for having glimpsed Sally's stylized lady junk.

Regardless, Sally shows us that the uterus or WOMB is simply one uniform bit of lady junk. Therefore I am free to make up whatever terms I choose in reference to any part of my homogeneous "baby pocket".

Just to be fair, I did look up erectile dysfunction too, to compare Sally to some of the man-style stuff designs. I guess we should be happy we have Sally. Men just get the meat and two veg on a brain pipeline.

Sally actually looks a lot like a woman I used to know named Anne. But I'm pretty sure Anne had nipples.

It does seem strange that the "man junk" stands alone. There's no man standing there half smiling as we look at his naked body and right into it. Stranger still, by a long shot, is the scale of the drawing; the gentials are significantly larger than the brain.

Dear Anon,
You are correct. That's some seriously mis-scaled man junk. Either that or the brain is very far away...
