What This “Weird Blue Thing” Actually Does
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles at the base of the pelvis. They help control urine and bowel movements, support internal organs, and play a role in sexual function. When these muscles get weak – after pregnancy, childbirth, aging, surgery, or just years of bad posture and sitting – people can end up with problems like leaks when they cough or laugh, a feeling of heaviness in the pelvis, or pain during sex.
Pelvic floor trainers are designed to make those muscles work harder and smarter. Instead of just “trying to squeeze,” the device gives resistance or feedback so the muscles have to engage properly. Clinical studies show that structured pelvic floor training can cut urinary incontinence risk and improve quality of life during pregnancy and after birth.
So the blue gadget in the meme is basically gym equipment – for a part of the body people are embarrassed to talk about.
The Problem With the Meme
On the surface, the meme sounds playful. Underneath, it’s pushing a few bad ideas:
- Ignorance is presented as a virtue. The caption implies that a “good” woman should be clueless about her own anatomy and sexual health. That’s not innocence; that’s disempowerment.
- It links a medical/wellness device to “looseness” or “body count.” In reality, women use pelvic floor trainers for health reasons: bladder control, postpartum recovery, pain reduction and long-term pelvic support. Turning that into a joke about morality is lazy and unfair.
- It treats women’s bodies as something to be evaluated, not cared for. The punchline is about whether a man should “marry” her, not whether she feels strong, healthy and comfortable in her own body.
If you need her to be uninformed about her own health for you to feel secure, the issue isn’t her – it’s you.
