I'm guessing it cannot go in you anus but how can one's anus provide such a succesful seal. How can it totally deny water acsessibilty to the bowels?

Imagine yourself passing a real hard and nasty piece of poo. You can feel the walls of your rectum contract pushing the hard poo inch by inch until it exits through your anus. The intestinal tract and rectum have small muscular walls that contract to expel stuff from inside but not in reverse. The rectum does not look like a solid tube where water can get in and out freely. The muscles contract to keep stuff from getting in or back up. The cervix is also made the same way as the rectum.

The sphincter muscle is one of the strongest in the body, for obvious reason - nature did not intend for things to go up there.
Unless you've been to too many gay pride parades you will be fine when swimming.
Water in the vagina does not matter because the skin (epithelium) in there is meant for contact with the outside world (squamous cell) just like normal skin. That's why AIDS is rarely transmitted during normal sex, unless that person has another form of VD at the same time, which would create open sores.

Its all about pressure. The pressure is uniform across the body. Therefore since the anal sphincter is exerting more pressure without water pressure, when you add the water pressure, the sphincter will always have a higher pressure than the water. There are females that do get water in the vagina because there is no sphicter.

It's called a sphincter. Peristalsis keeps movement in the area out. (Water would stay out of your mouth, too if you keep you mouth shut.) Water doesn't enter the vaginal vault due to the musculature of the area making the vagina more of a potential space, than a space.

My first question is WHY is a MAN asking this woman's question. ????
My second question is, are you confused as to the fact that the anus and the vagina are not connected and not related to each other?
You should know from your own body that water can't simply flow into the anal opening as the sphincter muscles are quite strong.
The vaginal opening is not as tight, so a small amount might be able to enter it, but that's not something a man needs to be curious about.

Hmm...! Not sure but I've never noticed water going up anywhere. I suppose it's the same as having a bath?

yes, some is absorbed just as it is through a mans urethrae. actually your entire body absorbs water through your skin. thats why you get all wrinkly if you stay in the water to long..
