Do Women Poop?

You read that right. That is what my teenage son asked me today. He's a smart kid, so I assumed he wasn't serious. Much to my chagrin, he was… seriously asking me that. He thought I only had this superpower known as a bowel movement after my IRA was put into use.
I asked what he thought I did before I had an ileostomy or what most women do. He shrugged and said, “I dunno, I thought you guys just got rid of stuff somewhere.”

Kids say the darndest things

My nephew (who was about 6 at the time) asked me once if girls fart, which was surprising coming from a family that regularly cracks toilet humor and fart jokes, and with a brother who is forever telling kids to pull his finger. I did find the question quite hysterical but just explained, yes, of course, we do, and anyone who says they don't fart is a bullshit artist, either that or they are about to explode - he did laugh! 😅 💨😂

That boy of yours is going places. "Too cute." "They get rid of it," he said. "Poop?" Novel.

I wish I could say my son was 6 when he asked this 😆

That's hilarious! I can picture his shrug as he said this! I have two boys in their 30's and bathroom humor and discussion of their habits are still very much a part of their lives. One girlfriend shakes her head and the one who has brothers just laughs. 

And the question begs... Sir, what the heck are you doing sneaking around the ladies' room? 😄

When they ban pictures of Michelangelo's David, they leave people to "learn by doing." ..

Or asking Mom 🤣

Angel...  hmm.  uh- ohh..🎵Just call me Angel..in the morning..🎶

Baby.. Just squeeze my (ass) cheeks and ill fart between yur eyes

.baby🎶

NO!...wait...do you?

That is too funny. 

Actually...the number of times you click that one goofy icon will give the same "laugh out loud" feeling.

Trust me. I know goofy.

Do a dictionary search. My picture will appear.

I OD on those icons.👍🤷‍♂️

It's a visual thing.

If Junior doesn't know girls poop and he's a teenager, it might be time to take him aside and have that whole "how boys are different from girls" and that "birds and the bees" conversation. Because at this rate, he won't figure all that other stuff out until he's thirty!

Ok, retract your claws. I'm not picking on Junior. Just saying knowledge is power. 😉

;O)

Oh bob...how many times did momma catch u in the bathroom with the Sears catalog?  Kids..even teens are curious. Today's kids probably never even heard of a Sears catalog or rotary phone. 😆

Dude........I got caught at the age of 4 hanging with my neighbor's daughter under her bed seeing why her "parts" were different from mine.  Luckily, when her Mom caught us I still hadn't taken all my clothes off.  That 'ladies go first' stuff does have its benefits!

;O)

Yea, we all played "doctors" too. You horn dog. At 4.?? 👍

I'm jealous!!!

I can’t say out loud what he learned at the 5th grade lunch table a few years ago… most of it was inaccurate information.

 
One might be able to imagine how I talk to my teenager using proper anatomy/physiology terms… makes it less awkward for me. Based on the way my son ran away from me when I asked if I needed to explain female anatomy… I don’t think it makes it any less awkward for him 😁

Well, I was once at that table with the boys in fifth grade.

Very graphic, colorful conversation. The best part was a kid saying he "did it" and this and that. Yadda yadda...

Young bullshit artist at work.

I think it was Trump.

(And here comes the ass whooping)

Hmmm... I love the innocence of your son! If a mom has a stoma, it seems to me this might be a legit question... jb

JB, ya know I started thinking about that afterward… the last few years before my colectomy I was throwing up more than anything else. I remember him at 4 years old lying on the bathroom floor next to me after I’d been sick. I’m assuming that is the type of thing he remembers more than anything else. 

I thought they only stopped teaching biology etc. in California!  Time for our schools to get back to the basics in education. 

Your situation shows just how important a job parents have in the raising of their children.  You seem to be the baseline for what he thinks a woman is.  With your openness, honesty and sense of humor (based on your contributions here) you set a high bar.  He will benefit from this in the future.  

Best of Health and Happy Holidays.

Unfortunately, for politicians, "getting back to basics" in education seems to mean math and reading. Science and history/social studies get shunted to the side. Sadly educators are not the ones making these decisions.  

I thought women never farted until my Girlfriend at the time and I started up a flight of stairs and I heard this high-pitched squeak. I was shocked. I said, you just farted, she said no I didn't, but the evidence was in the air. She still denies it ever happened!

LOL I totally agree.
