Apparently the female seminal receptacle is also very long. In fact, the increasing length of this receptacle is one of the explanations for the extreme sperm length.

‘Most people seem to manage,’ she said.
She reached across the table and touched his hand.
Recently learned it’s actually “Eagles”, not “The Eagles”. (For example, take a look at the album covers. There are also documentaries in which they talk about it.)
But even the band themselves will use “the” when it grammatically makes sense. So confusing.
One is Akansas
Try pressing this thingy:
Not a city builder / house builder, but Planet Zoo might scratch that itch. Takes a bit to really learn the building mechanics, but people can build amazing things in it.
This was genuinely interesting. Thanks for posting!
“Hints” is another name for “charades”
But looking at the picture there is no road behind them, only the path going up the mountain?
