I'd really rather liked it if that supposedly "intelligent" designer took a bit more time at designing the urogenital tract of human males.

- shmeeed 6mo agoWhat's wrong with it?
- MyelinatedT 6mo agoSeparation of functions/concerns is not great, for starters. The testes are dangerously exposed, the plumbing is convoluted and failure-prone (and doesn’t recover well from mechanical insults). The prostate, which serves no function outside of reproduction, lies inline with the urethra and quite consistently loses flexibility and becomes enlarged with age, causing all sorts of structural issues impacting basic urological function. Female reproductive vs urinary anatomy is largely physiologically distinct (proximity and UTI risk notwithstanding). Though plenty of room for improvement there too — starting with endometrial tissue being far too prolific. Fun fact: endometrial tissue can migrate to the brain and cause haemorrhaging in severe cases of endometriosis. Plenty of room for improvement across the board, I’d say!
- hackrmn 6mo agoHey, $DEITY did its absolute best with the constraints and the requirements. But hey, can't please everyone apparently. Be happy you can relieve yourself well past the intended warranty period. The parts were designed to be easily _aftermarket_ replaceable with sufficient advances in technology, retaining the fundamental design without changes.
- lexicality 6mo agoI'd like it if the vagus nerve didn't do a loop around my neck for no particular reason. (Giraffes would probably like that even more)
- dingdongditchme 6mo agoIs that a big concern? I've been pretty happy with my vagus nerve functionality until now... although I have not given it much thought to be fair.
- _joel 6mo agoI'm going to stick my neck out and say no.
- lexicality 6mo agoI mean it does add like a millisecond of unnecessary delay that wouldn't be there if it took the most efficient route. It's not much, but it does add up!
