A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

While we're on the subject, why is it called "reverse cowgirl" but we don't really call regular woman on top "cowgirl"?
We do. Cowgirl is a sexual position.
In my day it was called female superior. And we invented it, so we should know.
References to it can be found as far back in history as the Kama Sutra, a 2,300-year-old Hindu text that included descriptions of hundreds of sexual positions.
You don't know how old I am.
Hmm. Maybe it's a regional thing? Where I'm from, I've never really heard it called that.
I’ve heard of it, and that’s what all the books of fun positions call it
