    Reminds me of monster house:

    Girl: “look! That must be the uvula”

    Guy: “ooooooh, so it’s a girl house”

    Girl: confused look

      Always pops into mind when a uvula is mentioned.

          I thought it was closer to uterus, and that’s what he was thinking of? A kid that age would be more likely to know that word because of health classes; they don’t teach words like ‘vulva’ (in the US, at least. Too sexual, I guess 🙄) which is why so many people don’t learn there’s a separate word for vulva and vagina until they’re way older.

          Either way, though, I too always think of this joke!

        Uvula bears a certain resemblance to the word “vulva”, a term boys are more probably likely to confuse since they lack one.
