How to wipe your butt the right way

“If a person has a vulva, meaning they have an opening to the vagina as well as an opening for the urethra, …”
If only there were a single word in English to concisely express this idea…
They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

A more concise and operationally comprehensive way of saying it is "if you have another bodily orifice near the anus, wipe away from the other orifice."
For those who have learnt object-oriented programming, it's simply knowing the difference between the "is a" relationship and the "has a" relationship.
It's quite unnecessary to pass the whole object or implicate the whole class when all you need operationally is to check one attribute of an instance -- whether there is another bodily orifice near the anus -- to determine the recommended wipe direction.
Minimal dependency on extraneous information, lower risk of complications and easier maintenance down the line.

An even more concise way is ‘women should wipe front to back’.

That would not include eunuchs (depends on how the castration was done) and boys with severe hypospadias and undescended testicles, or other congenital abnormalities, injuries, physiological and medical conditions not captured by the term “women.” Functionally, it really is about whether there is another bodily orifice near the anus, and to wipe away from it if there is.

severe hypospadias
Never heard of a hypospadias being posterior to the scrotum. At the scrotum, perhaps, but never posterior to it.
and undescended testicles
That has nothing to do with orifices.
By the way...what's the EKG sign of a hypospadia?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

On the highly unlikely chance that there’s any overlap between the set of people with such conditions and the set of people who will read this article, when they read the reasoning behind the advice given to women they will be able to figure out if it applies to them.
At any rate this deconstruction of women into parts and functions is misogynistic and should be discouraged.

Of course.
However, I always make a point of telling that joke whenever someone mentions "hypospadia."
Even if the anticipated audience is only one.
