It’s a metaphor!Comparing car care to women’s health. Crazy! But I’m not the first to notice.

Best engine in the world?

The vagina:

-It can be started with one finger. -It is self-lubricating.

-It takes any size piston.

Too bad the management system is so fucking temperamental.

Maintenance is critical

It’s a little more involved for her

I just stole this image off the internet
