Serious talk. Farts. Sex. It happens. [Farting sound].
Hey everybody I am so happy, thrilled, excited, any other kind of exclamatory adjectives to
have Laci Green--Hi guys--on Stuff Mom Never Told You. Sex educator, YouTube star, lovely
lady in general. Thanks so much, you're such a sweetie. Oh well. I'm so glad you're hear
to give your expert advice on farting because I'm not going to lie, I went through the Sex+
archives and tried to find one thing about sex and sexy times that you've never talked
about. It's true--farts! I haven't really talked about farts that much online. I feel
like I've let the whole world down. Well this is your chance [laughter] to spread the word
about farting in sex. Everybody farts, everybody poops, everybody queefs. No everybody actually.
Not if you have a penis. Half the world approximately. Let's talk about farting just in general in
relationships because I feel like they're almost a barometer of where you are. It's
true. As you get more comfortable you might be more comfortable just, you know, letting
things fly. Letting a toot, letting a rip--cut the cheese. First off you pretend that neither
of you ever fart. And then maybe things are going well and you say I love you and then
you fart around each other. I feel like some people too are just more comfortable with
it. They probably wouldn't even go through a period where they didn't do it. There is
a whole sub-genre devoted to farts. Brazilian fart porn as you informed me earlier. This
is a thing, I am not going to link to it. [Laughter]. I was reading an article and found
that famous author James Joyce was also apparently really into farts. Really? Like as a sexual
fetish. Mmm-hmmm. Wow. He wrote a very saucy letter to his wife Norma. Oooh. Norma. About
how much he enjoyed her farts.I think he even called her 'Farty Norma'. That's so cute.
Let's talk about though farts in the more intimate times. Can we go ahead and say queef?
Is queef a bad word? Can I say queef? We can say queef. Let the farts fly, let the queefs
fly. Let the queefs fly, yeah. But a queef, not the same thing as a fart. Right, it's
coming from two, two different holes. Yeah and what is coming out is two different things.
A fart is a mixture of all sorts of gases whereas a queef is just air. If it comes from
the outside, say in your bedroom or something. Would you like to know about the physiology
of a queef? Oh I would love to know about the physiology of a queef. Make sure you're
listening right now. First of all, when women get aroused the vaginal canal opens up a little
bit. And then if a guy starts thrusting, especially if it's a hard and fast thrust and if the
pelvis is lifted upward, that can make some extra air get into that wider space. The air
has got to go somewhere. Yeah, I mean it's not going to chill in their forever you know,
you'd blow up like a balloon if it never comes out. That's one thing to keep in mind is that
even though we make lots of jokes about queefs and I think they are considered gross, it's
actually just a byproduct of vigorous sex. Any way where you're just sort of vacuuming
in air, can happen any number of ways, yeah. You know. If you're doing the old vacuum cleaner.
Vacuum cleaner position, it's very queefy. If you are really nervous though about the
prospect of queefing, is there anything that you can do to stop a queef? A queef that wants
to queef will queef. You can't stop it. Words to live by. It's on a mission. I was and still
am a little bit mortified sometimes but every time I queef it gets that much better. Embrace
the discomfort and be like this is a normal thing that happens with my body, I can't stop
it, let it rip. Love the queef. If you are with a partner who makes you feel gross or
shameful about queefing-ooooh heck no. I'm not putting up with that. You shouldn't put
up with that, you don't put up with that right? Oh I don't put up with that, I'm queefing
all the time. [Laughter]. Actually no. She is though. If someone is going to make you
feel gross for a normal bodily function that you can't control and really isn't that invasive
or gross, like, come on. Be nice. Let's reframe the issue, it's just a thing, it's going to
happen in life. Laci thank you for empowering us [laughter]. Are we embracing our queefs?
And I think if it happens even though it is kind of a funny thing, just laugh. Yeah. Laugh
it off. Laci thank you so much--thanks so much for having me. Where can people find
you? They can find me on the internet at youtube.com/lacigreen. While I am a little hesitant to ask for your
comments about farting and queefing come on people--just leave it--let it rip. Bye. Don't
forget to subscribe. Subscribe. [Farting sounds].
