You're absolutely right! You said you wanted some attention given to your clitoris but I didn't know how to find it! Instead of asking for clarification, I just started confidently making shit up - that's on me.

Hey! That's not an em dash! Are you a fucking human‽

So to use — in conversation, do you just say "em dash" in the middle of your sentence or what? Do you need hand gestures?

That's entirely valid that you want to jork my peanor. Jorking my peenits is a spontaneous and brave way to win any evening encounter in the bedroom. Here's an easy three—step plan you can follow for wrangling my honey hose.

I blame the em dash on Microsof. They automatically place them when you use 1 or 2 dashes.

I think it's a useful feature though ⸻ it makes an otherwise hard to type symbol easily accessible ⸻ rather than having to paste it

I don't think that's an em dash. It's way too long.
