Perhaps that is why rectal which is not very r—l—ish in quality does have a fine sound. For example, compare it to rectum which is far less sensuous. But note the trick: erectile tissue and rectal tissue. (Your cock is a piece of shit. Oh, those doctors, and what they did to people’s nervous systems.)
