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

do you like the way your vagina looks? go into some detail about what you do or don't like about it.
|
|
Never really thought about whether I like the way it looks. I suppose I think its ugly, wrinkly and bits of skin hanging around. Doesnt look neat and even coloured like it use to.
|
|
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?
|
|
Seen a few photos online recently and I was surprised to see such variation. I was glad to see that some even looked like me. I felt a little more reassured.
|
|
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'm 36 and I think the first time I had a really good look was after my 2nd child. I don't look to often as I'm not sure I find it attractive, but I am trying to become more confident about how I look and let my partner see it with the light on !

|
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?
|
|
My husband says its gorgeous, he loves being down there. He is very reassuring but I still have difficulty being completely relaxed about how it looks.
|
|
this conversation makes me think...
|
|
that its OK to feel like I do and that others are unsure as well. I feel its good being able to express something thats so personal.
