A man was ridiculed online after he attempted to 'mansplain' the difference between the vagina and vulva to a female gynaecologist.
Paul Bollen from Chicago, Illinois, found himself under attack on Twitter Sunday after he left a comment about an article titled ‘Me and my vulva: 100 women reveal all’. He wrote, 'The correct word is vagina.'
But gynecologist Dr. Jennifer Gunter was quick to step in online and inform Paul the word vagina was, in fact, not to be used instead of vulva in the article. He was incorrect in his comment.
Oops: Paul Bollen (pictured) from Chicago, Illinois, found himself on the wrong end of a Twitter storm after he attempted to correct an article's use of the word 'vulva'
Wrong: He attempted to correct a Guardian article that was titled ‘Me and my vulva: 100 women reveal all’
Shut down: Gynecologist Dr. Jennifer Gunter was quick to step in and inform Paul that he was in fact wrong about saying the word 'vulva' was incorrect in the article
Incredible: Even Dictionary.com joined in on the conversation by sending Paul the correct definition of the vulva
Helpful: The gynecologist then shared a Venn diagram to explain to Paul why the use of vulva was correct in the article
Double down: The man was not willing to admit he was wrong as he stated he was using the 'broader usage' of vulva by commenting the article should call it a vagina
Not having it: But Dr. Gunter was unimpressed with his explanation and showed how Paul he actually was not helping himself
'Hi, I am a gynecologist and an international expert on both the vagina and vulva,' Dr. Gunter responded to Paul. 'These are vulvas. I wrote this post with a handy Venn diagram to help people separate the two.'
Even Dictionary.com joined in on the Twitter conversation and sent Paul the definition of vulva so he could better educate himself on the female anatomy.
Paul — who describes himself in his twitter as an editor, writer, teacher, researcher — was still not convinced he was wrong about the word being vulva instead of vagina.
'I’m claiming the word vagina has two meanings,' the man responded to Dr. Gunter, refusing to back down from his point.
'I’m addressing language use, not anatomy per se. To summarize, many words have both a strict meaning and broader meaning (species and genius). "Vagina" is like that.'
The conversation continued as Dr. Gunter made clear his explanation just further proved using 'vulva' was correct instead of 'vagina' — unlike what he originally wrote.
'So @paulbullen here is where you mansplained to me – the correct use for the article was vulva, the common use vagina would not have applied here as it was specifically about loving vulvas and not a general lower repro tract article,' Dr. Gunter responded.
She then further pushed her explanation by writing: 'I thought we would circle back to your original tweet because the claims you are now making are refuted by it. You said "correct" not "modern vernacular" or "slang" or "common use." The correct term, is indeed vulva. But do go on...'
Incredible: The doctor (pictured) was unafraid to let Paul know that she thought he overstepped in his knowledge about the female anatomy
Mad: Dr. Gunter then told Paul he went as far as to 'mansplain' to her about vaginas and vulvas despite it being her area of expertise
Not good: The conversation only got worse as Paul attempted to correct Dr. Gunter's use of the word 'mansplain'
Unimpressed: Dr. Gunter then let him know exactly how he mansplained to her and why he overstepped in his comments
Funny: Ultimately, Paul deleted most of the conversation on his own feed as people ridiculed him for his poor explanation about using vagina instead of vulva
That just happened: Dr. Gunter was not the only person commenting on Paul's responses. There were many people online following the interaction
Annoyed: One person challenged Paul to try and find the clitoris based on his responses
Curious: People were on the attack over Paul's incorrect explanation about vaginas and vulvas
Embarrassed: One person online tried to explain to Paul why he was being ridiculous in the argument with Dr. Gunter
Just curious: Another Twitter user wanted to understand what type of man would think it was OK to mansplain parts of the female anatomy to a gynecologist
True: The conversation between Dr. Gunter and Paul blew up, so the man eventually deleted a majority of the conversation
The situation between the two people only got worse when Paul attempted to correct Dr. Gunter on if he actually participated in 'mainsplaining', like she claimed.
'That's an incorrect use of the word mansplaining,' Paul wrote at what appeared to be an attempt at a joke. 'Not that I want to legitimize the term, but by its own definition it require more than just having just a man who is explaining something. Eve if some in the audience are women. '
But, again, Dr. Gunter was having none of Paul's corrections.
She wrote, 'Mansplaining involves a man correcting a woman when he was not asked or when he is not the expert and knows less. You did the latter to me.
'I am the expert on vulvas and vaginas — both medically and how the terminology is used by the public.'
Since the Twitter conversation on Sunday, Paul has gone on to delete his tweets.
He later tweeted: 'I may I have many faults, but at least I'm polite. And I treat other people with respect. And if I am wrong in this case, it's a question...'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
