Unless you skipped sex ed class, you probably have at least a basic understanding of how babies are made. An egg (ovum) needs to be fertilised by sperm during a precise window in the menstrual cycle for life to happen.
Sexual intercourse provides optimal conditions for reproduction. But that doesn’t mean that every pregnancy happens this way. There are also examples of women conceiving in extremely rare circumstances that you’d expect to be impossible.
Via anal sex
Via oral sex (and one very heated argument)
Splash pregnancies
Double pregnancy
These examples are of course extremely rare – so you probably don’t need to worry too much. But if you aren’t looking to get pregnant anytime soon, be sure to use contraception.
TIL babies are stored in the anus.
That’s why children are sometimes little shits.
Some women have cloaca like chickens.
All women have “harsh internal genitalia”.
…and boobs like sandbags!
Do they?
I don’t know, I’ve never touched another human before.
Probably for the best as this article suggests even the lightest contact can lead to babies.
I need help. Someone ended up upvoting my top comment past 69…
that’s how lawyers are made
Yeah and pee is stored in the balls. Everyone knows that
“You’ll freak out when you discover where sperm is made and 11 other weird body facts.”
It can’t be the balls because that’s where the pee is stored?
That’s just science. It’s in the knees, which is why getting kneed in the balls hurts both parties. Also why you get “babies trapped in knees”.
Damn. I was wondering, thanks for clarifying
No problem. I have scienced before, so this isn’t my first rodeo (although I was dropped on my head in the last science rodeo so…).
