I felt embarrassed because...

Surely, as long as your heart is in the right place, it really doesn't matter if you know where the other bits are, or what they are called - unless of course you are a paramedic/doctor/nurse.

Is this thread for real?

I may wish I hadn't started it!
I expected others to say their embarrassing moments if they wanted to, though I couldnt remember if that had been done before.

I think you could fill this thread all by yourself obi

haha!

I think obieone is.

Torpeoes away DB?

Thanks for starting this off.

Am about to start a full day's decorating and this has given me such a laugh.

I didn't do well at Biology at school and so over the years have been surprised, and deeply embarrased, by my ignorance !

Oh my.

Before I I'd like to suggest, kindly, to you obi that if your stomach is in fact under your 'left boob' you are in seriously need of a decent bra

Maybe!

Err... I think she might have meant 'below'. (Which is accurate) Difficult interpretation that. #sarcasm

My embarrassing moments inevitablly revolve around farting. Loud and long. #helpless

Actually, it's usually DD who is more embarrassed than I am. I am learning to live with it.

I don't think anyone who's left primary school should use the word "tummy" it's very babyish reminds me of those strange fully fledged adults who still call their parents mummy and daddy.

We shouldn't be embarrassed about farting around our other half, mine has asked me to kindy refrain from doing so in his precious car, I don't know why, it's as good a place as any We were created to expel air or silently suffer looking at all that inner tubing (intestines) it has to come out somewhere otherwise heaven forbid surely we would combust

I do confess to not doing it around my children or heaven forbid grandchildren, although they do it around me accompanied by giggling description of the act. Still at the lavatory stage

Oh my goodness! I have.been teaching my Laos medical students wrongly. Been doing the body and various names for different parts of the body in good old English, included some slang as well in case they get some drunken youth with gut rot! The question I wasaskedwas why do we say ear ache instead of ear pain?

Nothing wrong with "tummy"!

I don't fart deliberately around anybody. I blame healthy oat breakfasts.

I get called 'mummy' by son. I did try to get him out of it when he was sixteen. Given up now.

I prefer 'tummy' to 'belly' which some children seem to call it these days...

Anyone else find themselves instinctively touching each area as it is mentioned in these posts.
Ps. I too always thought the word tummy a little childish but often notice doctors using it when talking to patients on tv programmes).

I think everyone around here says tummy. Including the nurse. It was her who said that a lot of patients do not know where there stomach is.

I get "yes mummy" when preceded with my comment you will need to pay that back following a request for a tide over loan till payday. Bank of Mum and Dad

What word do people call it, if not tummy and now not stomach.
People cannot be saying I have a pain in my lower intestines surely?
