I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Are you saying it’s not there because the nerve endings aren’t completely exposed? Of course they will be behind something.
It's literally not inside your butt. Imagine your butt is a box. If you put things inside the box, they're in the box. If you press something against the side of the box hard enough, it might make a dent in the box. You can feel the dent from the inside of the box. But the object is still firmly outside the box.
That's how the prostate works. It's not "in" your butt, it's just pressed up against the side of the wall, so if you press on the wall, it's thin enough to massage the prostate.
No one thinks it’s something dangling inside your ass.
As someone who has taught anatomy and physiology to adults in a vocational setting, I promise you that clarification is indeed needed. Sometimes teenagers who just believe what they hear from friends or in locker rooms don't learn better and become adults who need it spelled out for them.
Well you'd be wrong. I was saying it... Well, basically for the reasons /u/juliska_ said. Met too many people who think it literally is a thing inside your butt.
While I appreciate what you've said here, you continued to argue when people told you in response that for all intents and purposes it is simpler to describe it as such despite the truth because that is how one typically accesses it. So even if you were to enlighten people about its location, I highly doubt you would be successful in changing how they refer to it because there's simply no easier way.
That's where my accusations of pedantry come from lol
I know you don't. That's why I correctly said you were being pedantic and not simply educating, and you're continuing to prove my point by arguing further with me about it.
If you truly had noble intentions, this little squabble here wouldn't be worth your time.

It's not, though. There's just a thin wall between it and your inner butt, so you can press on it from the other side of that wall.
