Speaker 3: I don't want that. I do not. She doesn't want to.
Speaker 3: Thank you, mo bye.
Speaker 4: Every once in a while, an ordinary person goes above
Speaker 4: and beyond to change the world. Tonight, Michael Costa has
Speaker 4: found one of those persons for another episode of Thank
Speaker 4: Me Later.
Speaker 2: Hi, I'm Michael Costa. Believe it or not, Modern doctors
Speaker 2: or gynecologists aren't being adequately trained on the anatomy of
Speaker 2: the zone that makes the clitterists. That is, until one
Speaker 2: woman decided to give doctors and layman such as myself
Speaker 2: the map we so desperately needed. I sat down with
Speaker 2: this hero, and you you can thank me later.
Speaker 6: I'm Jessica Pin and I have gotten five textbooks changed
Speaker 6: to include detailed anatomy of the clitterists.
Speaker 2: Let me just back up here for a second, because
Speaker 2: I know about the clitterists. Okay, I know very much
Speaker 2: about the clitterists, but some of our audience may be
Speaker 2: a little less informed. Why don't you just explain to
Speaker 2: our audience where and what the clitterist is.
Speaker 1: Please?
Speaker 6: So, the clitterists is the primary soltius sensory organ of
Speaker 6: female sexual response.
Speaker 3: The primary sensory organ of the female sexual response.
Speaker 1: Go ahead, yep, it looks like this.
Speaker 3: That looks like a coat hanger with balls.
Speaker 6: Well, this is what a clitterist looks like. Most women
Speaker 6: orgasm from external clteral stimulation.
Speaker 2: Show me again, how exactly how you did that? I mean,
Speaker 2: I know, but just so our viewers, just show me again.
Speaker 6: This is a common way to stimulate the clitterans and
Speaker 6: this is the anatomy that I've been getting covered.
Speaker 2: At the time of Jessica's study, no medical textbook included
Speaker 2: anatomy of the glitterists. While these same textbooks were Coca
Speaker 2: block with penis cross sections ouch.
Speaker 6: So the penis gets covered in great depth. As an example,
Speaker 6: Medsgate provides fifty seven times as many words on the
Speaker 6: penis as on the clitterists. And I've asked them.
Speaker 3: To dick dong ding dong slong.
Speaker 6: Oh no, no, I mean like words like. I counted
Speaker 6: the number of words in order to quantify how much
Speaker 6: coverage there was a penile anatomy versus c lilteral anatomy.
Speaker 6: It was fifty seven times. And that's a huge problem
Speaker 6: because doctors will think they know adequate literal anatomy when
Speaker 6: they don't. That's scary because then they will be operating
Speaker 6: on people and not realizing what they need to watch
Speaker 6: out for. And that's actually what happened to me.
Speaker 2: Jessica herself was harmed during a surgery and dove into
Speaker 2: academic research to find out what went wrong. She soon
Speaker 2: discovered that medical textbooks were ignoring the clitteris, and she
Speaker 2: decided to apply some pressure to this sensitive area.
Speaker 6: When I first started emailing medical leadership and textbook authors,
Speaker 6: it didn't seem like I was getting anywhere. No one
Speaker 6: was listening, and it was so frustrating. In twenty eighteen,
Speaker 6: I crashed the ACOG annual meeting. ACOG is the American
Speaker 6: College of Obie Joyans, and I passed out flyers of
Speaker 6: clitteral anatomy.
Speaker 2: Not surprisingly, Jessica's strategy of handing out flyers like the
Speaker 2: glitterists was a Times Square comedy show, didn't work.
Speaker 6: I realized there was a need for me to have credibility.
Speaker 6: So I went to my dad, who was a plastic surgeon,
Speaker 6: and I told him that I needed to publish a study.
Speaker 6: So I dissected clitterses with my dad.
Speaker 3: What you what?
Speaker 6: It's actually so funny. I dissected clitterses with my dad.
Speaker 3: That's amazing Me and my dad watch Adam Sandler. But
Speaker 3: if this is what you do with your dad, cool.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: How do you dissect a clitterist.
Speaker 5: From canavers, dead people?
Speaker 3: Clitterists?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's how you learn anatomy.
Speaker 2: Then it was time for Jessica and her dad to
Speaker 2: start slicing and dicing.
Speaker 6: We went to the anatomy lab. And my dad said,
Speaker 6: a lot of people faint or throw up, so if
Speaker 6: you need to sit down, that's okay. And I was like, no,
Speaker 6: like cand me the scissors before our study. A surprising
Speaker 6: number of Objiyans told me to my face, those nerves
Speaker 6: are very thin and difficult to dissect. But they were
Speaker 6: larger than even I thought.
Speaker 2: Wait what wait wait wait wait wait, how do you
Speaker 2: know that this cadaver didn't just have a big glitteris?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 2: Well we By the way, that's the first time I've
Speaker 2: ever said that sentence in my life.
Speaker 6: So we did ten for our study, and so we
Speaker 6: measured the nerves in all ten specimens.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: In twenty nineteen, Jessica his groundbreaking study was published in
Speaker 2: the Esthetic Surgery Journal, but it didn't get a lot
Speaker 2: of attention. The medical community was ignoring her study like
Speaker 2: it was I just can't think of a good analogy,
Speaker 2: but you get it. So Jessica started pushing her cause
Speaker 2: on social media, publicly calling out doctors and textbook authors,
Speaker 2: forcing them to make real changes.
Speaker 6: Please, you're saying, TikTok made real life changes to actual
Speaker 6: graduate level medical textbooks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, five of them.
Speaker 2: Oh, Okay, besides the sense of satisfaction you get from
Speaker 2: protecting women from needless suffering, have you received anything for
Speaker 2: your work? Any cash payments or schools named after you?
Speaker 2: A free sub at Subway? Now, Jessica, we mailed you
Speaker 2: a box.
Speaker 6: Okay, my gosh, could you please read it out loud?
Speaker 6: This is Jessica and Kit. You may have rubbed a
Speaker 6: few people the wrong way, but thank you for your
Speaker 6: tireless service to enlarge our nation's literature.
Speaker 5: Well that's awesome.
Speaker 2: So far, Jessica's activism has helped change standardize exams for
Speaker 2: some med school graduates, new certification guidelines for practicing obgyns,
Speaker 2: and five textbooks. And Jessica, you can add one more
Speaker 2: book to your list because I'm updating my diary and
Speaker 2: you can thank me later.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to the Day Show. The overturning of Roe v.
Speaker 4: Wade is a major attack on women's reproductive rights, but
Speaker 4: it's not a battle that women have to fights alone.
Speaker 4: We sent Michael Costa to find out what men can do.
Speaker 2: A woman's right to choose is being eroded across this country,
Speaker 2: and as a man, I've been paying very close half
Speaker 2: attention to this issue.
Speaker 5: For several weeks, thousands of people are standing up for
Speaker 5: a woman's right to choose. After nearly fifty years, the
Speaker 5: nation's highest court overturns Roe versus Wade, taking away the
Speaker 5: constitutional right to an abortion.
Speaker 2: It's insane that we're going all the way back to
Speaker 2: the way things were in nineteen seventy.
Speaker 3: It's a war on women.
Speaker 8: That's what it is.
Speaker 2: To investigate more into women's reproductive rights. I went to
Speaker 2: the obvious choice.
Speaker 1: A man.
Speaker 2: Meet doctor Guardi, who trained in family medicine and obstetrics.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about some of these anti abortion laws that
Speaker 2: are popping up. I mean, right now, women that want
Speaker 2: to have an abortion have to leave the state like
Speaker 2: it's Ted Cruz during an emergency.
Speaker 5: It seems that we either punish, criticize, and judge just
Speaker 5: the women. And that is an issue because men actually
Speaker 5: were part of the of that reproductive process. It takes
Speaker 5: two to tango, and the men seem to be absent
Speaker 5: in this, in this whole discussion.
Speaker 2: You're right, absolutely, and we can protest, and we can vote,
Speaker 2: and we can.
Speaker 5: Get of a sector and what did you just say,
Speaker 5: get of a sectomy?
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, slow down, slow down. Isn't that a bit
Speaker 1: zero to one hundred?
Speaker 7: Can we maybe tickle the balls before we slice them off?
Speaker 5: We don't slice testicles off. Listen, Michael.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 5: For decades, women have carried the burden of contraception. Men
Speaker 5: in general have assumed that reproductive decisions fall on the
Speaker 5: shoulders of women. So getting more of a sectimies actually
Speaker 5: is going to show that we care, that we want
Speaker 5: to participate. That's not all, but that's a very good
Speaker 5: first step.
Speaker 1: Cutting off the balls is the good first step.
Speaker 5: Do you understand what a sectomy is?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's when you removes the sect.
Speaker 6: In me.
Speaker 5: You actually interrupt a tiny little too called a vast difference.
Speaker 1: Vast difference.
Speaker 7: You interrupt that, I know, but continue.
Speaker 5: Well, the vast difference is a small structure that comes
Speaker 5: out of the testic.
Speaker 7: Out of the test That's what the vast difference are
Speaker 7: the testicles.
Speaker 5: Please transport the sperm sperm and put it into the
Speaker 5: semen so that it comes out right through the penis,
Speaker 5: and then you can get somebody pregnant for penis.
Speaker 1: Do you have to wear one of those cones? That's
Speaker 1: what my dog has to do. No, you don't.
Speaker 7: If I get a asectomy. How high will my voice
Speaker 7: go after that?
Speaker 5: It will not?
Speaker 3: I will be doctor doctor G.
Speaker 7: Did my have aseectomy?
Speaker 5: No, listen, Michael, it is responsible to do something like
Speaker 5: that because you are being part of the reproductive decisions.
Speaker 2: And doctor G wasn't alone in his beliefs of neutering
Speaker 2: men to make the world a better place.
Speaker 9: About a half million vasectomes are performed in the United
Speaker 9: States every year. Doctor say that number may be increasing
Speaker 9: in Texas following the passage of the state's Heartbeat Act.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: So far there's been a fifteen percent surge of aseectomi's
Speaker 2: motivated by the state law.
Speaker 1: Have you ever had of aseectomy?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 5: I did my own aseectomy?
Speaker 1: You did it?
Speaker 5: I did it?
Speaker 1: Was it like a moment of extreme horniness and you
Speaker 1: had to do it right then? And there?
Speaker 5: Listen. The point here is not I did it my sectomy.
Speaker 7: The point now, that is the point. Are there any
Speaker 7: other medical procedures you've performed on yourself?
Speaker 1: Crazy? Doctor?
Speaker 5: Point is it is so simple that if the surgeon
Speaker 5: decides to do it, and it's able to do it,
Speaker 5: then older men should have no problem getting that procedure done.
Speaker 1: Okay, what about just the pull out method. The pull
Speaker 1: out method doesn't work. If it doesn't, oh my god,
Speaker 1: oh my god.
Speaker 2: Maybe doctor G was onto something, but I wanted to
Speaker 2: hear from a regular old Joe who wasn't a doctor,
Speaker 2: a completely normal American who was willing to get his
Speaker 2: scrotum touched. Didn't let me watch.
Speaker 1: Why are you getting it the sectomy?
Speaker 8: I'm getting one because my wife has already went through,
Speaker 8: you know, childbirth and all those different hormone changes. So
Speaker 8: I just figured that of a sectam was something that
Speaker 8: I could do to help take some of that birth,
Speaker 8: not for her.
Speaker 1: You know, I have a kid. She's cute, two years old.
Speaker 7: There are good days, right, those are nice, those good days,
Speaker 7: and there are bad days.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 1: Yesterday she wouldn't eat.
Speaker 7: So I've made her some oatmeal, and she keeps taking
Speaker 7: the spoon.
Speaker 2: And throwing the spoon and I would say no throw,
Speaker 2: and then she'd say no throw, and then I would
Speaker 2: pick up the spoon.
Speaker 1: And give it back to her, and then she would
Speaker 1: throw it. And then I'm like, okay, so you're not
Speaker 1: going to eat.
Speaker 2: So then then I try to put pants on her,
Speaker 2: but she won't put her pants on. If anything, she
Speaker 2: ripped off her diaper and it's filled with all this.
Speaker 1: Like gross yurine and pooh.
Speaker 2: And then she throws the diaper up and now the
Speaker 2: dog is eating the diaper filled with pooh. And I'm going,
Speaker 2: do I love my kid? I think I love my kid?
Speaker 2: You know, I tell her I love her all the time,
Speaker 2: but she never says anything back. If anything, she just
Speaker 2: takes takes take. You know, here, I am making all
Speaker 2: this money and she's just is throwing her diapers and
Speaker 2: throwing the oatmeal, and it.
Speaker 1: It's hard being a parent.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: Maybe I should get the sectomy.
Speaker 8: You should look into it.
Speaker 1: You're a cool guy. I think it's cool you're doing this.
Speaker 2: And if people at home, you know, aren't sure if
Speaker 2: Travis is a cool dude.
Speaker 3: Sunglasses are on his head.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for an indoor interview, I mean, if anything that
Speaker 2: communicates your bad mother, definitely, I look forward.
Speaker 7: To seeing your scruttle sack and the left and right
Speaker 7: vast difference.
Speaker 2: I'm sure Travis had some great memories with his uncut
Speaker 2: vast deference. But now it was time to say goodbye. Ohds, No,
Speaker 2: it's the pipe snippipe snage is no more.
Speaker 1: Snip snip, enjoy the caref s. If change yourrman.
Speaker 3: It's too on the renversable.
Speaker 2: Sleepless nights, you'll still have none, but it won't be
Speaker 2: from unwanted show.
Speaker 5: We're done, What We're done?
Speaker 3: You're done.
Speaker 1: I haven't even gotten to my other verse. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's fast, all right.
Speaker 2: No more Travis seeds to impregnate women. That's a hero.
Speaker 2: And while getting of vasectomy is not a solution in
Speaker 2: helping women with their reproductive rights, it is a snip
Speaker 2: in the right direction. Explore more shows from the Daily
