Why does sticking your fingers back your throat trigger your gag reflex, but swallowing food doesn't?

The same reason getting your dicc succed by a man feels bad but getting it succed by a girl feels good. Your brain likes one and not the other

Because the uvula (dangly bit in the throat) goes upwards into the nasal cavity when you swallow. Test it out for yourself by forming a ball of spit in your mouth, swallowing, then quickly move your tongue to the back of your throat, and you can feel it drop back down

Have you tried swallowing an entire fucking bread piece? It's about the size and width of the thing going down between throat and tongue which connects the reflex i guess.
