Twitter Says Candace Owens Needs Sex Ed After Anatomically Ridiculous Tweet



Steph Bazzle reports on social issues and religion for Hill…
Not all sex education programs are created equally, and it’s entirely possible for people to make it to adulthood without a complete understanding of human reproductive anatomy, including the names of parts of it and exactly how those parts function. Right-wing commentator Candace Owens got taken back to class after she tweeted anatomical improbabilities following Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B’s Grammy performance.

Owens tweeted to attack the duo, making a reference to the sexist trope of ordering a woman to make a sandwich, and to their Grappy performance of WAP — a song that has upset other conservative commentators who find the notion of women in control of their own sexuality obscene.
If you think making your husband a sandwich is a sin, but popping your vagina into another woman’s vagina in front of the world is power— you are a lost soul.

However, Twitter users were on hand to school her on ways the human body works — or at least, on one way that it doesn’t.
lmao we need to have a discussion about the lack of sexual education in this country https://t.co/VVfOaIG4DG

Why do right wing dumdums always talk about human sexuality like they’ve never actually encountered a human body.

Candace… vaginas aren’t like potato head toys.
You can’t just pop them into one another.
It’s just… science. pic.twitter.com/ruSmN1Jhb6— Jo (@JoJoFromJerz) March 17, 2021
Most of the responses were purely mocking, simply laughing at Owens for a blatant error on labeling of body parts, bringing up Mr. Potato Head (one of the other two issues conservatives seem to care about at the moment), or demanding instructions.
I think you might have failed “shapes match” in pre-K

I don't think you have a very good grasp of female anatomy, pet.

How does one pop one's vagina into another woman's vagina? – asking for everyone who has a vagina, has seen a vagina, or even has a rather vague idea of how vaginas work

Can't comment on husband matters but is "popping your vagina into another woman’s vagina" a new lesbian craze I'm yet to discover? Asking for a friend. 😏

A few, however, tried to impart some actual information that Owens’ sex ed classes might have missed, although it’s not clear whether anyone who actually needed to learn was listening.
My wife says she thinks you mean vulva. 🤷♂️

I'm happy to point people toward educational sources if they're confused, but for everyone missing the joke here:
vaginas are on the inside of the body

Of course, some people pointed out how the ridiculous tweet fit into the current conservative modus operandi, in which being right matters less than being heard.
Modern conservatism is perpetual burlesque of deliberately and/or inadvertently misunderstanding things very loudly Pt. XXX.

Cardi B herself responded to the tweet very seriously, addressing not the sexual aspect, but the misogyny. She gently explained to Owens that making a sandwich isn’t a “sin” to those on the left, but the sexist trope is damaging to women, and particularly should be understood by a woman living in an era where she can use said trope to promote herself and her new television program.
