Refinery29 go head to head over how different parts of the reproductive system work.
Transcript
00:00I'm Vanetta, and this is an episode of Sex Ed Game Show, where we're putting your anatomy knowledge to the
00:06test.
00:07Are you ready?
00:08True or false?
00:10Bodies with vaginas don't ejaculate.
00:13I know this.
00:15False.
00:16Maybe it doesn't happen as much, but when it does happen, it's a beautiful, beautiful moment.
00:21So can you please study up? Because I'm trying to find a mate.
00:24False.
00:24Fluid can be expelled from the rigid area of the tissue in the vagina during orgasm or sexual arousal.
00:30This is different from the cervical fluid that lubricates your vagina when you're wet.
00:34True or false?
00:35A penis has a bone in it.
00:38Hmm.
00:39Um, false.
00:40Penis is made up of spongy tissue, and the only bone is the pubic bone.
00:46So then why do they call it a boner?
00:48I mean, I don't really know.
00:49False.
00:50Some people refer to an erect penis as a boner, but turns out the penis has no bone in it.
00:55It is made of arteries, veins, nerves, and the erythra.
00:58Next question.
01:00What happens to ovaries during menopause?
01:03It means that it's time for me to find a man 30 years younger than me in a new car.
01:08I don't know.
01:10Ovaries, they stop producing eggs.
01:12That's right, Jasmine.
01:13Menopause happens when your ovaries stop making estrogen and slow down making other reproductive hormones.
01:18Menstruation stops, and you are not able to get pregnant.
01:22True or false?
01:23The G-spot is a real body part.
01:29True.
01:30The G-spot is a real part of the vagina.
01:34Not that I would know what that is, but I've heard about it.
01:37Maybe a myth?
01:38If you answered true, you are correct.
01:40The G-spot, or Grafenberg spot, is located a few inches inside the vagina.
01:44The G-spot swells up when turned on, and some like the feeling of having their G-spot touched.
01:50Me!
01:50Jasmine, how many ovaries do female-bodied people have?
01:54We have two, and they contain eggs that can get you pregnant.
02:00That is correct!
02:01Yes!
02:02I know about ovaries.
02:04Female-bodied people have two ovaries.
02:07They are oval in shape, lie on either side of the uterus against the wall of the pelvis,
02:10and are held in place by ligaments.
02:13They're like right here.
02:14Yeah?
02:15Yeah.
02:15I can make a baby in here.
02:17I can make a food baby.
02:18Next question!
02:19Please point to where the uterus is on the diagram.
02:22You go up to the vaginal canal, and then you like go through the cervix, which don't touch,
02:26and then there you go.
02:28There's the uterus attached to the ovaries.
02:30That's right, Billy!
02:31Good job!
02:32Woo, woo, woo!
02:33Look at that!
02:34As much as I want you to lose, you really know your way around a vagina.
02:37All right, Jasmine, now which of the following do the ovaries produce?
02:42A. Ocytes, B. Estrogen, C. Progesterone, or D. All of the above?
02:48I'm going to go with D, all of the above.
02:51I don't really know the answer, but I love the D, so we'll go with D.
02:55Yes, it's all of the above!
02:56Wow!
02:58The ovaries produce and release eggs, also called ocytes,
03:01into the female reproductive tract for fertilization.
03:04They also produce the reproductive hormones estrogen and progesterone.
03:09I did not expect that.
03:10I didn't even know what some of those words mean.
03:12Billy, at what point in the menstrual cycle do the ovaries release an egg?
03:18A, the beginning, B, midway, C, the end, or D, the entire time?
03:25I'm going to say A.
03:26I'm smelling the dice there.
03:27I'm not really sure.
03:28Oof, nice try, Billy.
03:30But that answer is incorrect.
03:33Jasmine, you're up.
03:34It's B. It's B, right?
03:36It's midway, because I know I can literally feel my uterine lining shedding.
03:40That is great, Jasmine.
03:41The answer is B, midway.
03:43Wow.
03:44Yes.
03:45The ovaries release an egg during ovulation,
03:47which usually occurs between 12 and 14 days before your period starts.
03:51Jasmine, you're up.
03:53What is the function of the uterus?
03:55It's like a womb.
03:56It's like where you're...
03:58You know, I'm having a little trouble with this one.
04:00I'm going to say it houses babies, and you shed your eggs through it.
04:04I know I have one.
04:06All right.
04:07Close enough.
04:08I'm going to give it to you, Jasmine.
04:09The uterus is a hollow cavity that houses a developing, fertilized egg.
04:13I've never had a fertilized egg, so I don't know where they...
04:15Okay.
04:15You know?
04:16There's always more time for that.
04:18I know.
04:18Billy, at what age does menopause most commonly occur?
04:30I'm going to say B, 51.
04:32That's right, Billy.
04:33The answer is B.
04:34Woo!
04:35Menopause usually happens between the ages of 45 and 55, with 51 being the most common age.
04:41Symptoms of menopause include hot flashes, vaginal dryness, breast changes, bone loss,
04:47thinning of skin, cholesterol changes, and weight gain.
04:51That sounded like a lecture.
04:53Jasmine, please show us where fertilization takes place in the internal reproductive system.
04:58Fertilization.
05:01Fertilization happens...
05:03here?
05:05Oh, no, Jasmine.
05:07That's the pubic bone.
05:09Oh, this is so...
05:10Like, I have that inside me.
05:12I can't believe I got that wrong.
05:13Billy, where do you think fertilization takes place?
05:15I'm going to take a guess.
05:16In, like, the fallopian tube, ovary-esque area, so around this general region.
05:23All right, Billy, you are crushing it.
05:25Ooh, ooh, ooh.
05:26Now, could you please show us where the rectum is on the diagram?
05:30Which rectum are you talking about?
05:31There's two on these diagrams.
05:33They're right here.
05:35Correct, Billy.
05:37Both internal and external reproductive organs have a rectum,
05:40which is a chamber that begins at the end of the large intestine,
05:43immediately following the sigmoid colon, and ends at the anus.
05:48Back that ass up.
05:49I took sexual health class for two semesters.
05:51I took sex ed too, and I still don't know, apparently, what's in a vagina.
05:55Last question.
05:56Where are sperm produced in the external reproductive system?
06:00A, testicles.
06:01B, prostate gland.
06:03C, epididymis.
06:05Or D, penis.
06:06I'm going to say C, the epididymis.
06:09Mm, Billy, that's wrong.
06:10I'm sorry.
06:11Jasmine, what do you think?
06:12I feel like it's obvious.
06:13It's the testicles, right?
06:15Sperm is in the testicles.
06:16That's just something I feel like I know.
06:17I don't know much, but I think I know that.
06:20That's right, Jasmine.
06:21The answer is A, testicles.
06:23The family rules.
06:24You got it.
06:24I got it.
06:25I got it.
06:26Sperm are microscopic cells that develop in the testicles within a system of tiny tubes
06:31called the seminiferous tubules.
06:33These tubes house the germ cells that hormones, such as testosterone, call to turn into sperm.
06:39All right, guys.
06:40It was super, super close, but the big wiener, I mean winner, is, drum roll please.
06:49Jasmine!
06:52I knew it.
06:53My grandma's going to be so proud.
06:55It's fair to swear.
06:56I know.
06:57You can have one.
06:58I'll take one, okay.
06:59You know, safe sex.
07:00The rest are for me.
07:01This has been an episode of Sex Ed Game Show, and I'm your host, Venetta.
07:05We'll see you next time, but remember, practice safe sex.
