Do you really think that as the result of some strange genetic flaw there is actually a sphincter someplace on my face?

You might want to brush up on your anatomy because you obviously don't know what a sphincter is.

But just to help you out, the orbicularis oris is a sphincter muscle. It's also the muscle that allows you to pucker your lips. So yes, you do have a sphincter someplace on your face. It's just a coincidence that, in your case, that sphincter also functions to expel shit.

"Orbicularis Oris is a complex of muscles in the lips that encircle the mouth; until recently it was misinterpreted as a sphincter, or circular muscle, but it is actually composed of four independent quadrants that interlace and give only an appearance of circularity."

Yeah, I can copy and paste from wikipedia too. However, and no disrespect to Prof. Saladin, but his textbook is the only one that I've seen that says that the orbicularis oris is not a sphincter. Granted, I haven't read every single textbook out there but I have still seen many sources that say that it is a sphincter that were published after Saladin's textbook. So until I see another legitimate source that isn't from Saladin or referencing his textbook, I have to keep considering it a sphincter. So my last post still stands.

At one point in science it was believe the world was flat. One person objected and was ridiculed.

Except Saladin's previous editions have been known to contain some errors. So when you couple that with his textbook being the only source that I've seen so far say that it isn't a sphincter, I have no choice but to keep believing it is one until I see another reputable source verify it.

We understand. You are knowledgable and smarter than the rest of us when it comes to medical text.

Except not at all. But if it makes you feel better to try to find some hidden meaning or motive behind my posts then go for it. There's nothing there but at least it'll keep you occupied.
