I dunno, lucy, I've had things come out of my ass that were nearly as big as my daughter. LMAO


Seriously, though, the perineal lining of the anus is very similar to that or the vagina. A lot of the same muscle types and whatnot. I would dare to guess, judging by what our doctors told us during FF's pregnancy, that much of the loosening of the vagina and then the contraction afterwards is done by hormonal response and not by pure physical force.
