A Few Holes In Their Knowledge

(My friend is an only child. He doesn’t have much knowledge of female anatomy. We’re talking about my childhood home, which my parents are considering selling.)

Me: “I think it’s a shame that they have to sell it, because my placenta and my sister’s placenta are buried in the garden.”

Friend: “Your parents BURIED your PLACENTAS in the GARDEN?”

Me: “Yes. What else would you do with them?”

Friend: “I thought that after birth, the placenta slithered back up…”

(I burst into laughter. Once I’ve managed to calm down, I try to reassure him.)

Me: “Actually, what you said isn’t that bad. Another friend of mine used to believe that women only had two holes down there.”

Friend: “They don’t?!”
