Here's a fun fact: female genitals are made up of seven parts, and if you cam identify them all you're in rare company.
My sister was stepping over the old family dog, Monty, who was sprawled in a large dog-puddle. “Be careful of his willy,” I said, as her foot came down perilously close to his crown jewels. “Jennie!” shrieked my sister, who has special needs. “Don’t be rude!” “Well, what else am I meant to call it?” I said. “It’s not rude. It’s part of his body, and you nearly stepped on it.” She gave me a shrewd look, cleared her throat and then confidently stated, “Boys have a willy... and girls have a penis.
Oh dear. I explained that, no, girls have a vulva – that’s the bit we can see. The vulva is where the opening to the vagina is. Boys have a willy, or penis. I remembered this incident when I read about recent research from Cambridge University in which people were asked to label female genitalia in their own words.
Women were not exactly better at knowing their own bodies either: yes, they were more likely to identify the anus and vaginal opening, but after that they were as at sea as men.
