Tiffany Haddish learned a major lesson when she turned 40.

The comedian said that she discovered that women didn’t have prostates.

Appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show, Haddish said she would like to be a sex educator in the future. She went on to share what her curriculum would entail.

“Well, on day one, I would teach hygiene. Proper hygiene,” Haddish explained. “Day two would be about emotional support. How you support somebody emotionally will determine what kind of sex you have. Good sex always comes with tender care and or just I don’t give a damn. But there are feelings involved.”

Haddish also said she would teach male students about the female anatomy, although she recently learned about prostates.

“I thought I had a prostate,” Haddish told Barrymore. “Women don’t have prostates, and I didn’t learn that ’til I was 40.”

Haddish said in an Instagram Live session in August that during pap tests, her gynecologist would examine her backside. 

“I thought they were doing it because they were checking my prostate,” she said. “But turns out, girls don’t have prostates. No. They were putting their finger in my booty hole because my booty hole is irresistible.”

Haddish is also set to release her latest series, Tiffany Haddish Goes Off, on Peacock. The show captures a month-long “girls’ trip” with her three closest childhood friends. Premiering on November 13, this six-episode unscripted series follows their travels in Africa, including Cape Town, South Africa; Victoria Falls and Harare, Zimbabwe; and Zanzibar, Tanzania.

“What an honor that these women have gone on this life journey with me since we were little girls. But also, it’s a testament to how awesome we all are at communication. I think a lot of friendships fall apart because they don’t communicate,” Haddish told The Post.
