Key Takeaways Copied to clipboard!

  • The hosts welcomed Amanda Lehan-Canto back for the final Smosh Reads Reddit Stories episode of 2025, which featured stories saved by producers for being particularly wild. 
  • The first story established a strong consensus that touching someone's stomach and implying pregnancy, especially in a workplace setting, is unacceptable, regardless of cultural context or the coworker's prior behavior. 
  • The third story highlighted the extreme entitlement of a bride who drastically changed her wedding plans last minute, demanding financial contributions and compliance from her wedding party under threat of being excluded from memories. 
  • The discussion heavily focused on the absurdity and entitlement displayed in the Reddit story about a wedding date change, particularly regarding the high cost of makeup and the disrespectful rules imposed on guests (like the 'no kids' and 'sober people fuck off' stipulations). 
  • The final story, sourced from r/The10thDentist, featured an extremely controversial and detailed argument from a straight man claiming vaginas are 'badly optimized interfaces' that should be evolutionarily eradicated in favor of penises. 
  • The hosts reacted with strong disbelief and humor to the 'badly optimized' Reddit post, ultimately concluding that the author was blaming female anatomy for his own perceived sexual shortcomings and lack of understanding.

  • Key Takeaway: The bride’s manipulative behavior is predicted to lead to her ending up alone because friends will stop being honest with her.

  • Key Takeaway: A straight man argued that vaginas are aesthetically chaotic and functionally high-maintenance liabilities compared to penises, which he views as superior designs.
  • Summary: The Reddit poster claimed that vaginas lack visual logic, symmetry, and standard layout, contrasting them with the ‘sleek, functional, symmetrical’ penis. He argued that the clitoris, the main engine of female pleasure, is ‘buried treasure’ requiring too much effort to locate and stimulate. The poster suggested that if women had external genitalia, sexual dynamics and cultural shame surrounding female sexuality would improve.
