  • Even though this chick is screaming for Bo to continue, her vaginal lips are closed ever so tightly. Considering he’s about to get it in, this is a good sign that she isn’t all blown out and loose. He just might be her first.

  • The vaginal lips open when horny. So she’s yelling for him, but her vaginal lips are sealed, showing that she isn’t actually enjoying the experience and is just faking excitement.

  • She screams Bo’s name as if she is thoroughly enjoying the experience. However, Bo was a “nerd” in high school and so he knows that tomorrow morning she isn’t going to tell her friends that she had sex with Bo Burnham.
