I'm pushing BG around Wal-Mart in a shopping cart, and he's saying, quite loudly, "Mommy, you have a vulva for peeing on the potty. You don't have a penis. *I* have a penis for peeing on the potty. You have a vulva, right there." *points to my crotch*

The looks on other people's faces are priceless. :-D

Your kid sounds awesome! 10 points on the embarrassment. Almost right up there with my kid who like's too point out how fat people are. It's funny because I'm fat, but she'll grab my hand and yank me too whrisper in my ear how fat someone is- only thing is she's not whrispering when she speaks in my ear so everyone hears.

She's not being mean just curious.

I do love how they just say what they think, without worrying about whether or not it's appropriate. :-D

Hey, he's using the right words, so kudos!

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Absolutely!

I want a new pic of Baby G <3

Here's an old pic. *points to icon* But that was two and a half years ago...

LOL. These are the moments when you wish you could pull off a dignified hand wave, like Queen Elizabeth, and simply sail away, untouched by any sort of embarrassment :)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

Fortunately I was a little too proud to be too embarrassed! ;-)

[drgaellon]

That there is one smart kid. :)

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I like this think so, heh. ;-)

[mijeli.livejournal.com]

Someone did their research! :D
Your kid is awesome.

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

LOL!

Ahahahaha!
He's clearly going to be a scientist. :)
Awesome boy is awesome!

With DH and me for parents, the odds are good! :-P

Out of the mouth of babes! It's a shame that Americans are so uptight about their bodies. There's nothing wrong with a little boy knowing there are differences between the male and female bodies. Good on you for teaching him at an early age. Better you than little Johnny down the block teaching him cunt and prick.

One thing I've been really conscious about is being very matter-of-fact about body parts and bodily functions. It'll be interesting to see how that influences him later on. :-)

LOL! Your kid sounds awesome. xD

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

I certainly think he is! ;-)

That is just awesome.

You taught him VULVA. I love you. ^_^

[emmagrant01.livejournal.com]

LOL! I really hate it when people use the word vagina as a universal term for women's gentalia. He knows "testicles" and "scrotum" as well, though he definitely focuses on the penis. ;-)

I went to see The Vagina Monologues and was frankly furrow-browed for half the show. I was wondering why they were only talking about the vagina and why the vulva was getting such short shrift. Eventually it dawned on me that they were using "vagina" to mean "women's genitals" and at first I got upset, but then decided that the world needs its baby steps and I should let it go.

..*face palm* You know I'm 23 and I just learnt that there is a difference. O_o" Had to wiki it, like most people I thought Vagina meant.. err female bits. Didn't even know what the vulva was to be honest. Trying to recall what they taught us in school and I think we got taught Penis for male and Vagina for female. You learn new things everyday.. ^^;;

I love it! I'm so tired of hearing the Sprog's peers talk about 'winkies' and 'pee-pees' or whatever cutesy thing. It's a penis for pete's sake. Why can't we call it a penis?

Also, bless you for teaching him that there is more than one thing going on in the vagina. I'm not entirely sure (because he won't admit it) but I think the DH thought the bladder emptied into the cervix or something - thought it came out of the same place - until I was pregnant.
