For the record, the vagina is actually the canal inside. What I think of as the face of the vagina—the lips, the clitoris, the clitoris' hood, etc. all the parts you can see—that is called the vulva. So, this questionnaire is about how you feel about how your vulva looks. [see vulva diagram] though I can't help but ask the question as: do you like the way your vagina looks? because that's what I've always called it...although, that's changing...—Alexandra

No, i dont like my labia majora. i feel it is too big. meaty-like. yuk
|
|
have you seen many other women's vaginas? in photographs or live? where did you see them? did you compare yours to theirs? what did you think?
|
|
Yes. when i was younger. 14. we were at a friends house, me and my cousin and her. we were changing and they both looked at me and said, umm we think you look 'different' i asked what they meant and they said mine was bigger.i was mortified.

how old are you? was this the first time you took a good look at your vagina? – if it is the first time, did you expect it to look the way it does? how often do you typically look at it? when was the first time you looked at it?

i am 18. after this experience, i examined it in the mirror. i thought it was normal, i saw a friends in the bath when i was 13 and actually thought she was the weird one because to me it looked child-like. how ironic. mine is the weird one. i want hers. now i think about it all the time and everytime i change, i look. its not even that bad compared to others. my inner labia is neat its just these big lips. i am sooo self-concious now and extremelly paranoid when having sex.

have your lovers told you what they think about how your vagina looks? what did they tell you? did you ask them, or did they offer?

I am too embarressed to talk about it. although i had a massive argument with a the last guy i was seeing, and he said horrible things to me like- you belong on rotton.com, your meaty, i try not to touch the sides. i was shattered. i didnt think he noticed. that was 6 months ago. since then i havnt had sex and at my age that is terrible to feel so bad you dont want to do it at all. guys really dont understand the impact their opinions have on girls already self-concious on such a delicate issue.

this conversation makes me think...

more should be done to educate men on how different every women is. They have a playboy ideal that just is not fair. They must understand we take everything they say to heart concerning our appearance and this can lead to emotional scarring. I also think theyre needs to be more websites like this. i now feel alot better. other woman feel the same insecurities. there is no normal, everyone is different!
