to block penetration. If that were possible, rape wouldn't be a problem. Yes, you can tighten or relax the muscles of the pelvic floor, but that doesn't block penetration.

I think there are a lot of men who have very little understanding of women's anatomy and how it works.

I definitely support a woman's right to block penetration by saying "no" and having that respected.

Where's the "hallucination"? That is the etymology of the word. Bernardo de La Paz Jun 1 #3

Your understanding of "enclose" is quite different from mine. LAS14 Jun 1 #4

It doesn't "enclose" any organs. Crunchy Frog Jun 1 #8

OK, so the false info that AI supplied was irrelevant to the query. LAS14 Jun 1 #6

Oh, for crying out loud. It provides access, not blockage. It certainly doesn't "enclose." nt LAS14 Jun 1 #19

False dichotomy. Access does not prohibit enclosure occurring. Enclosure does not deny access forever Bernardo de La Paz Jun 1 #22

Again with the all-or-nothing thinking. There are degees of closure. A locked car door can be opened w a crowbar Bernardo de La Paz Jun 2 #25

Again, closing does not mean sealing or require sealing or locking. Bernardo de La Paz Jun 2 #27
