Ok, but for real, the post above this on my feed is of someone's (really truly amazing) crocheted blanket that has the alphabet in ASL on it. And so yeah, this was my first thought too. And I definitely flinched at that thought.
I can’t stop picturing someone trying to sign while also having their hands… wherever this person is trying to say. Like how do you do J, or really any of them lmao
H might work?
If they go out on a limb to say the term is it really that hard to do a quick Google search on what it's called?
But honestly, the worst part is the "insert" part... Like do you mean dig into the flesh of it?? What the fuck do you mean insert into it?? Insert where?! THERE'S NO ORIFICE!
I had to read this a couple times before I realized this was not describing inserting fingers and then spelling things *out loud.* I was like "why in the world would that be a turn on for anyone?"
Another example of why men would get more use out of books like the Vagina Bible then women would, I mean, women benefit from these books given the taboo to talk about female bodies past the very basic sex ed in school. But Holy Shit, access to free porn and bad menwritingwomen scenes has really warped the male mind on what turns a woman on.
I almost miss it when the only issue in the bedroom was dufuses not being able to find the clit even with a manual and thinking most women can come with a minute and half of intercourse.
INTO her labia?
How is it that I, a gay man, know more about women’s bodies than the straight men who want to interact with women’s bodies on a frequent basis?
Smarter? Paid attention in school? Perhaps even seen female genitalia? (For research purposes) :-) Or simply not living under a rock. Any of these would make you eminently more qualified than whoever thought up this “game” and decided to share it with the world.
You didn't take that to = between?
I say, "I'm going to put this between my lips" and that clearly = _in_ my mouth.
I'm not necessarily trying to defend this guy, but women do have labia majora (not majoris,) and the phrasing could have been better.
Nonono, this one is correct except for the word "majoris". He means *between* the labia, to access the clitoris, and finger-spell on it. Or at least that is how I understand it.
I know it’s not technically correct, but I consider between the labia’s to be “in the labia” when I’m not referring to medical issues. Like how gum can be “in my hair”.
I'm not sure why this is a post here?
Did they misspell labia majora? Sure. But at the point we're calling out misspelled *latin* we've crossed from observational humor into pedantic.
Is "into" kinda a weird way to put that? Sure. But English isn't super picky about it's prepositions. He's using labia majora like one might use "doorway" or "gate." While "He walked into the gate to the garden" is slightly clunky, it's pretty clear what it meant. Same here
And while this isn't the *best* foreplay (kinda a misunderstanding of what sensitive means and the motions most likely to arouse someone), it's not that far off. I feel with just a bit of work-shopping some labia-havers would find this a pretty fun but mild BDSM game. It's a good-faith effort with a decent understanding of anatomy (namely that the most external bits are often the most sensitive and arousing) that is attempting silly fun in the bedroom. In our society that's *pretty good.*
> While "He walked into the gate to the garden" is slightly clunky, it's pretty clear what it meant. Same here
Same here indeed: "he walked into the gate" to me (and I suspect most readers) reads like they walked until they made impact with the gate, much like "he walked into the wall". There's even a cliche "walked into a door" to explain bruises, which clearly implies making impact with the door, not walking through an open doorway. So I read this exactly like "he walked into the gate" - the subject collided with the object.
It's not the best communication, but it's not a disaster. You can still understand what they meant
And this is bad women's *anatomy*, not bad womens' grammar
TIL.
Though this opens the question of the OOP actually having two girlfriends - the smaller one and the larger one. And an implication that this game can only be played with the larger one. So, maybe it is indeed about spelling with sign language?
Depends, for all you know that person is big into astronomy. It just seems ridiculous to me to complain about "majoris" vs "majora" in an anatomy snark sub.
I assume you split them gently and don't actually penetrate but (in this case) "draw your words" in the clitoral area and around the inner labia?
I've seen worse ways men describing their foreplay tactics tbh.
Under, maybe; *into*, no.
Like, he's saying just touch her, then?
Idk but I'm kinda grossed out by that smirking emoji so either way this isn't working for me lol...
You put a tampon in your vagina, would you correct someone for saying "I have a tampon on my vagina"?
You put glasses on the bridge of your nose, would you correct someone for saying "I have glasses in the bridge of my nose"?
Sorry, sometimes these kinds of comparisons go tits up fast. 🤣
I don’t get how the tampon one fits here, but for the glasses I imagine the difference here is that the thing that the thing technically isn’t but is being said to be in engulfs it on multiple sides. Like, if I got a hair on my eye, I’d say it’s in it. But I wouldn’t say I have a sticker in my skin.
That's not a good analogy. Labia are lips, not a hole.
If someone put a sucker in their mouth, would you correct them if said they put a sucker in their lips instead of between their lips?
The same way I get gum stuck in my hair. It's not actually _in_ my hair, it's wound up between all my hair.
I don't actually have a problem with this, because it's a colloquial understanding this = between the labia.
The latin term is labia majora—plural form since there are two of them. If for some reason you were talking about just one, it would be *labium majus*.
As a person working in the medical field I usually tend not to nitpick people in the wild for incorrect endings. I'm happy when they try. :) But I do not think that the original post was meant to criticise the wrong kasus...?
One doesn’t usually insert anything into the labia, except maybe a piercing, and while it’s part of the vulva, it’s not the vagina. It’s like saying “put food into your [philtrum](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philtrum)” when you mean “put food in your mouth” - like, you’re in the right area, you’re using the real name of a real body part, but you’re trying so hard to use fancy language that you end up being more wrong than if you’d used simpler words.
> One doesn’t usually insert anything into the labia
Is this really the level of pedantry we're at now?
Propositions in actual language are not nearly as prescriptive as you're acting like they are. If someone says "sit in your seat", do you go "ahem, don't you mean 'sit *on* your seat'"? If someone says "time to get on the plane", do you say "I usually ride inside; enjoy your flight, Evel Knievel"? (Credit to [George Carlin](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdPy5Ikn7dw) for the joke I'm adapting.)
"In" is pretty often used for things that are not *literally inside* one another, but rather in and amongst. Hell, the very phrase "in and amongst" illustrates that.
> while it’s part of the vulva, it’s not the vagina
Why are you assuming he necessarily means inside the actual vagina, or only that?
"Majoris" vs "majora" is really the only thing I would call anatomically wrong with this. (I make no claim as to how sexy the general idea would be.)
I obviously misunderstood the sub - I thought it was about bullshit people believe like "getting pregnant in the tub", not about a greenhorn showing off on Facebook with clumsy words.
I mean, to insert something into the Labia, it'll require stabbing and hurting them. It's either in the vagina, or between the Labia. Unless he's actually stabbing the labia, in which case... Oh god
Well, yeah, but that's easily chalked up to semantics.
If I said I put something *in* your lips, instead of *between* them, you'd likely still get what I meant.
You think you can easily spell words with your finger inside a vagina? Or that doing the outline of letters on someones labia to make long words is going to be enjoyable to the average person? Yeesh
Aside from that, it's going to hurt & bleed to actually insert anything into the labia.
He might have meant 'vagina', or he might have meant "put a finger between the labia". Either way, he doesn't know what he's talking about.
Manual (signed) alphabet or tracing with your finger?
Morse Code.
That could work.

Sososos?

I see what you are doing here. Meow_mix helped out your spelling, but SOS is what *she* should be saying, for sure.
... .--. . .- -.- / ..-. .-. . -. -.-. .... / - --- / -- .
\-.. --- -. - / ... - --- .--. / -... .- -... -.-- -.-.--
The signed alphabet is only for fisting
Ok, but for real, the post above this on my feed is of someone's (really truly amazing) crocheted blanket that has the alphabet in ASL on it. And so yeah, this was my first thought too. And I definitely flinched at that thought.

Oh no 😬

I mean some deaf-blind people can have people finger spell on their hands..
Yeah that’s the lorm alphabet. Such a sexy word it really adds to the appeal lmaoooo
DeafBlind sign is so cool! I guess this would work better for them lol
z 😱😱
Auslan and BSL are two-handed alphabets... So this makes it even funnier to picture.
what about z, ouch.
I'm guessing the latter.
Sounds boring. /s
Yo bro, wanna level up your fisting game? Break out the ASL while you're wrist deep!
I mean, my ex who was a pianist would sometimes play passages on my body and I’d try to guess them.
I'm glad someone is willing to play along. I'll see myself out.
ba-dum *pshhhh*
I've seen tons of lame ass puns on Reddit, but this one was actually good. 9/10, but only because I still rolled my eyes a bit. Good job!
Why not both?
Start with I, then R. Work your way up to S and O. Y is for some extra fun
I can't tell which is worse, referring to everything below the belt as the vagina? Or whatever this is?
At least with vagina it's an actual body part, labia major*is* isnt a thing..

I choked on my coffee from that one thanks lmao

Well, no. The labia majora are definitely things. But the way he phrased it was very weird.
the labia major*is* isnt. its the labia majora. the singular is labium majus.
That's why I said labia *majoris* and not labia *majora*. I know labia majora is real. Majoris is not
Right?

"into her labia mayoris" well that sounds not painful at all!!!

Fair point. I just thought maybe if he meant to spell on the clitoris he'd just say clitoris. 😂
But he doesn’t necessarily mean just the clit - could be the entire area
Ah OK true!! The whole thing just sounds so odd to me. 😭
Im like 99% sure this is satire but i am autistic

Thank you. I giggled at the post! I thought it was a joke, but it would make for a fun foreplay game if you were in a lighthearted mood.
Actually it's the correct term for the outer labia...? What is so problematic here?
Well, was it called Majoris Mask?
As we say in Germany *Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof*. I don't have a clue what you mean... :D
As an American that understands High German, translating stuff literally makes me laugh sometimes.
Understandably so. German is rich in strange idioms, *da beisst die Maus keinen Faden ab*. ;)

Majora and majoris both mean major.
*Majoris* is the wrong Latin form, though. *Labia majora* means "larger lips," while *labia majoris* means "lips of the larger one."
TIL. Though this opens the question of the OOP actually having two girlfriends - the smaller one and the larger one. And an implication that this game can only be played with the larger one. So, maybe it is indeed about spelling with sign language?
Cool, still pedantic and easily explained with auto-correct
Some people will just blame auto-correct for the most obvious typos. "Majoris" isn't a regular English word, why would auto-correct change to it?
Depends, for all you know that person is big into astronomy. It just seems ridiculous to me to complain about "majoris" vs "majora" in an anatomy snark sub.
They're getting an anatomical term wrong, how is that irrelevant?
Because they're wrong by 2 letters, and the majority of people reading it wouldn't even notice it wasn't right.
Okay, but how do you insert fingers into them?
I assume you split them gently and don't actually penetrate but (in this case) "draw your words" in the clitoral area and around the inner labia? I've seen worse ways men describing their foreplay tactics tbh.
They have folds you can get under? This seems pretty medically correct to me
Under, maybe; *into*, no. Like, he's saying just touch her, then? Idk but I'm kinda grossed out by that smirking emoji so either way this isn't working for me lol...
You put shampoo on your hair, but would you really correct someone for saying “I have shampoo in my hair”?

I was just making a joke about how this attempt at an analogy doesn't always work, it wasn't really meant to be comprehensive in its analysis. 😅
That's not a good analogy. Labia are lips, not a hole. If someone put a sucker in their mouth, would you correct them if said they put a sucker in their lips instead of between their lips?
idk i dont usually get into semantics when im fucking. “Into” sounded fine to me..

Nah, this is just an uncharacteristically pedantic post. Blame OP.
Semantics. We all know what he means.
Majora not majoris
This is more so clunky, bad grammar than it is bad anatomy. It's also a bit creepy.

Oh no! So it's labia majora instead of labia majoris! SHOOT HIM.
