    A doctor at the hospital pointed out that while inserting foreign objects into the bottom was not unheard of, they can cause immense damage to internal organs and be fatal.

    These objects include baseballs, vibrators and coconuts, and could be inserted for stimulation or out of curiosity.

    Coconuts?

      Maybe they were like husked coconuts and could be cut into the ideal length for a 8cm diameter.

    When I got an apple up there thinking I can easily retrieve it then, I just told the doctor “yes it was me”.

    Anyways, use flared objects, preferrably things made for sex.

      It’s actually internal muscle movements! Your rectum is divided into two sections my a muscle known as the inner band, which isn’t technically a sphincter but it acts like one. It’s a long loop of muscle that goes around your rectum and anchors to the torso. When you have to shit, it relaxes and allows poop into your lower rectum. If you decide to hold it, after a couple minutes, it moves the poop back into your upper rectum and you stop getting the urgent urge to shit. However, your rectum doesn’t discriminate, and will attempt to pull foreign objects deeper as well.

        I don’t understand why this requires a hospital visit though - wouldn’t the cup emerge naturally next time the cupophile takes a shit?

          When you push shit out, you’re compressing that bottom section of your rectum to push shit out. (This is something you can feel for yourself if you want to stick a finger or two up your butt) You can’t do the same motion with the top of your rectum, so you can’t push things out of it. The inner band is hard to manipulate with external tools/your fingers. Like sure you can reach in there and stretch it a bit, but far enough for a large object to drop out isn’t going to happen. If the object is too large and your inner band too tight, it’s going to be extremely difficult to get out. Shit is going to back up behind it instead of pushing it out.

          If you’re wondering how I know all this, I’ve spent a lot of time with stuff up my butt.

          You are right for small objects though, when I was going through puberty and exploring I used marbles in the shower, thought I had them all out, and then had to explain to my sister how I must’ve accidentally dropped that marble in the toilet.

          Things sometimes don’t come out due to shape or they lodge at a weird angle. This increases risk of bowel or rectal perforation as the body tries to push against an obstruction. Think opening a door but a desk is up against it. The cup can also break so now you’ll have ouchie shards that can cut the bowel and create perforations or spill stool into the abdomen. Oh, and cause bleeding.

    I get it, but embarrassment could’ve killed this guy. If it helps, know that people have stuck worse up there and just go to the doctor.

    “Ah and now to clear up this tea service on our outside porch after rain.”

    “Oh dear.”
