Um, I’m still not 100% where women pee from. I KNOW the general area (very well, if you know what I’m saying) but if given a very explicit diagram, I may have to phone a friend or at least poll the audience (assuming this was a question on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire).
I know that ladies have a baby 40 weeks after getting banged by a stork.
