Vaginas

Here’s some troubling news -labiaplasties claimed on Medicare have more than doubled in the last 10 years with the biggest increase coming from women aged 18 to 24. And that’s just the public stats.

Porn has given this man a job

There’s a lot more labiaplasty happening privately at $3000 grand a pop. According to the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists it’s the West’s equivalent of Female Genital Mutilation.

You know, what those savages from other countries do, where they slice off the clitoris, or sew up the labia to make the vagina narrower. It’s good to know we’re not like that here, hey!

Growing up as a girl in England, manners and etiquette were drummed into me. My mother wore white gloves to go to the shops and we were never allowed to eat in the streets.

We hear a lot about breast cancer through the pink campaign, but not vaginal cancer. Picture: Daily Telegraph

Our private thoughts and concerns would never be discussed in public. So not surprisingly then, never ever would a lady discuss her ‘bits down there’ - not even with the people closest to her or her doctor.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    Just to show that using the word vagina as a collective of the female genitalia, I was on a site this week where they were discussing shaving their vagina - well if one knew the correct terminology it does take much to realise you cant shave a vagina as it… Read more »
