Why don’t we feel our insides?

This might be a rather odd example, but when I’m peeing, I can pinpoint the EXACT location I feel my pee actually leaving my tip, if that makes sense. How come I can’t feel my bladder, or the stream going through the tube, thanks.

I actually can partially feel this. Prior to peeing, I can feel the fluid in my kidneys or wherever the pee is prior to the bladder, flow through me until it gets to the bladder and I feel the about to pee feeling. It’s pretty weird ngl

your body can it just doesn’t give signals to the brain intentionally.

digestion is extremely violent and painful, your digestive tract is capable of handling it but your body wants to eat. Keep in mind until recently ‘gorging yourself’ wasn’t a bad thing because in the scope of humankind you were more likely to be hungry than well fed.

contact is a skin sense (touch was broken into 6 then later 7 separate senses decades ago by psychologists) and you don’t have it internally; skin pain a nd deep pain are also separate things

i’d imagine it’s a sort of thing where we may not explicitly “feel” them because they’re always there, but if they weren’t there we’d definitely feel it
