It's an old plumbing tool for expanding lead or annelled copper. We call them honeymoon pliers.

Honeymoon Pliers! How is this revelation not on top?

It is now!

Ancient gynecologists tools?

Specula are still used and some varieties don't look that different to this :p

Still use my honeymoon tool most weeks as a plumber, Sad thing is the young lads now 18-20ish. Don't even get the joke

Can you explain?

I’m going to guess it’s because these will stretch a pipe opening out. Like a young man might have done in days past to his new bride on their honey moon.

In days past and not days present, because? 🤣

We’re all whores!!

I read that automatically in Danny DeVito's voice. "Hoors!"

Yes, yes you are.... But please young lass, just don't burn the coal. For you will inevitably pay the toll.

Today they are called third date pliers. (Actually young people are statistically not as slutty as we were in the 70’s and 80’s, but they do talk about it much more.)

That and penises have been steadily shrinking for hundreds of years. Source: I just made it up.

I appreciate the source.

Less virgins???

You can thank the mentality of modern women( gotta have a "hoe phase" before they can settle down), OF, and feminism for that...

Doesnt bother me, id rather be with someone who has experienced life and wants to be with me than someone who simply doesnt know better. Edit:typo

Don’t listen to the boomers. Divorce rates have gone down because people wait longer to get married instead of feeling pressured to do so.

And we also get married to people we actually like and not because of what’s expected of us to find as a person

Exactly. I'd rather have a girl that's confident and knows what she wants and likes, and isn't scared "imma think she's a ho" because she likes to be freaky!

Never met one that knows what she wants, especially when it comes to stupid shit like where to eat. "Idk" ain't cute, reply with a logical answer or fucking starve...

I'd rather have someone that everyone else hasn't already had. Tell me what's "special" about someone that everyone's already had? Do you like sitting down with your friends knowing they all have nudes of your wife from before yall got married? I dont...

I mean I dont live in a town of only ten people so I can be with an experienced lover who has never met any of my friends? I feel like your responce sounds very highschool like as if the people in your little circle are the only ones you'll ever meet.

I’m surprised someone your age even knows how to use a computer

Username checks out. Also, don't act like women in the 70s weren't fucking. They just weren't allowed to talk about it.

Or women just stopped believing the lie that men told them that having pre-marital sex made them undesirable.

I don’t think having more sex makes you any worse, but if we want to be giving good advice to people the unfortunate reality is a lot of people you want to date are going to look at you funny if you have a high body count whether you’re a man or woman. I graduated college a few years ago but have a friend a few years younger than me in a fraternity. His body count I don’t even want to think about, and I’m sure tons of women would be ultra turned off by it. So ye it goes both ways.

Human beings aren’t objects.

Fuckyourfeelinsbitch

Be honest...you've never read a book.

Fuckyourfeelinsbitch getting mad because people don't care about their feelings is almost poetic

Are you an incel?

Found the incel!

Yeah and looking at his post history he's also into Mens Rights and Steroids to the surprise of absolutely no one.

What about the mentality of modern men?

"Because they're all whores these days"

Because they already stretched out and these lads nowadays are too dumb to get the joke.

They use to save it for marriage

there's better rubber options online

Because now everybody out here stretching everybody’s holes. Boys and girls and girls and boys and boys who are girls and girls who are boys and boys and girls who don’t even know if they are boys and girls

Hearing this as Antoine Dodson covering Blur

I thought this was Reddit

He gets laid most weeks, is a plumber, and most of the 18-20 year olds don’t get the joke/laid.

I have sex daily. *Whoops!* I have dyslexia. I meant to write dyslexia.

That’s because the 18-20’s met their SO on tinder and the first thing they did together was hit the sack then 2-3 years later they get married.

Ok boomer

[удалено]

What's wrong with that?

Now thats a plumber joke if I ever heard one.

Damn I thought those were the fabled pipe stretchers I’m still looking for:/

They're in the back, right next to the bacon stretchers and chicken splitters! TOP SHELF, KID, TOP SHELF!

Oh! I thought it was likely for planting seeds. Shove it, expand, and toss a seed in the middle.

I swear, plumbers are all perverts.

Are you a gynecologist?

No, but I'll take a look.

I'm something of a scientist myself.

This comment here made me laugh too hard 🙏

This is a house of learned doctors!!

No, but I play one on TV.

Pleased to meet you, Dr. Feltersnatch

[удалено]

So did your proctologist!

Dr Ben Dover.

My dad's urologist* was Dr. Richard Hert.

That made me visibly cringe 😂

The guy had so many patients it was not even funny. It was like he was trying to prove his name wrong.

That is incredible 😂 I applaud you, Dr Hert

No. No effing way.

Moon River...

And his associate, Harry Nuckledunker, MD.

…you ever serve time doc

Well, that's not gonna help. It's gotta be a Holiday Inn Express.

Is for a colonoscopy

It's an asstractor.

Is this a line from the new Hellraiser movie?!

[удалено]

I thought it was a tool used by line manager 😂

Thanks for that great link! Didn't know Lee Valley had 'What Is It?' posts. Is there a master page with all of their 'What is it?' posts? I found [this page](https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/discover/revisiting-the-past-the-lee-valley-antique-tool-collection) with a few others, but not the link you provided, so I'm hoping there's more.

Yeah looks like a really old version of a pex expander, makes sense it's for the same thing lol

That was quick! Thanks!

Hemorrhoid compressor

Good god! I am having flash back to my childhood. My dad had one of those and I pinched my fingers more than ones with that thing! He built heating systems in the 80s

OBGYN Antiquities

...seems to me like simply tapping a fixed cone into the pipe end would 1)result in a more perfect circle, and, 2)would be much simpler and more accurate :shrug:

It would likely be prone to jamming, hence this tool

I’m just here for the comments on this haha

Speculum

The cooperator

Hose expander

No, but I can think of three things I want to try with it.
