I am just trying to clear up a few misconceptions about a topic which is important to me. Sharks are awesome and deserve to be understood. They’re less awesome than whales, obviously, but still...

Are whales smooth like sharks? Wait, why am I asking you lets find someone who knows about this stuff.

I'm not sure if you know this, so you might want to sit down for it.

For one thing, whales are basically made of low grit sandpaper when compared to the smoothness of sharks, the smoothest thing known to exist.

That's why sharks can move so fast, zero friction with the water

Even at their smoothest, when stroking away from the ampullae of Lorenzini at 0 degrees relative to an imaginary longitudinal line along the vertical middle of the body of the shark, they're only "pretty smooth," and definitely not the smoothest thing known to exist.

"Pretty smooth" compared to stroking them in a different direction.

"Smooth as HELL" compared to stroking anything else on earth.

Clearly to push russian propaganda, and to misinform the public on the :krad: smoothness of sharks

see they want all the smooth for themselves, due to the ukrainian teflon factories.

It's like sleeping in a vagina, seriously, it's that smooth. I want to finger these sheets. That's how silky sharkskin is.

The myth of "vagina dentata" comes from sharks. Sailors found them irresistibly fuckable, and many were harmed when the shark, exhausted from hours of sailor pleasure, chose to bite.

This is a common misconception. The whole shark is the vagina, because of their smoothness.

I'm hoping to do a tiny bit to dispel myths about sharks by disseminating the correct information about why sharks can feel deceptively smooth, and explaining the proper angles and directions of shark stroking that will allow people to experience for themselves the true, pointy nature of shark skin.

Preeeety sure I'm being trolled, but the idea of a shark skin sheet is actually tickling my funny bone pretty good.

True fact: in the dark ages women would describe themselves as "shark-like" when aroused since the concept of a self-lubricating vagina would get you executed as a heretic.
