: 1. With regard to the pelvic floor spaces are superficial to the the peritoneum whereas pouches are deep to the peritoneum.

False. What was I thinking in 2010? I don't like this question. Nevertheless, in terms of superficial/deep applied to fascial layers; the peritoneal cavity is the deepest.
I just read volumes of literature whereby the authors redefined anatomical terminology according to a specified point of view. Let me just say, the right atrium contributes the right border no matter what the view. You left arm is your left arm. The most sophisticated radiographic equipment on earth can't make you a switch hitter. Then I find myself doing the same.
Let's rewrite the question so the masses don't come forth with pitchforks and torches.
Pouches are reflections of peritoneum that define topographies of the peritoneal cavity and spaces define topographies of pelvic visceral fascia.
True. I think.
