 do you like the way your vagina looks?
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.

 
Yes. Well i didn't used to like the way it looked, but i'm beginning to now. My vagina is not as petite as most playboy girls and thats ok with me because i look at as a part of who i am. I am a petite woman everywhere but there and i feel like it's equivalent to my sexuality. There isn't anything petite about the passion and intenisity of my spirit . It's my secret. And it's only me and the lucky guy who is with me who gets to experience that. My vulva isn't huge, but it's not real small. The outer lips are a little puffy and the inner lips hang out slightly sometimes, mainly after sex. My outer lips are big enough to keep them tucked in most of the time though. Not that there is anything wrong with them hanging out though. I think of my vagina before sex as a just slightly open flower in spring and after sex a flower in full bloom. :) It is dark pink. I considered getting labiaplasty for awhile to get the "playboy pussy" but now i think i'd rather have my natural one. A vagina that looks like a little girls is not what i want anymore. The "neat pussy" does not represent me or my sexuality. I have always felt self-concious about my skinny body and small breasts and it always made me feel childlike and unwomanly but my vagina is not that way at all and so i appreciate that and how good it makes me and my lovers feel.

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?

  I've seen other woman's vulvas in pictures only. Yes i compared mine to theirs. I thought my inner lips were too long. I liked the small ones that u couldn't see the inner lips the best, but now i think some that show the inner lips are just as beautiful. I saw a picture of one the other day that was the most beautiful one i'd ever seen. It was small and light pink but the inner lips stuck out of the outer lips, but it had the most beautiful shape and reminded me of a tulip.

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?

  24. I've looked at my vulva many times since i was a kid. But didn't give it a real good look until i was about 20 when i realized that there were beauty standards of the pussy. I look at it everyday, usually everytime i go to the bathroom or shower and before and after 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?

  my boyfriend told me he loves the way i look down there a few times and how great i feel.

this conversation makes me think...

  How important it is to love your vulva and how essential it is to a woman's body image, confidence, sexuality, and peace of mind to do so. And everyone one of us is unique and built perfectly for our selves. And more women need to stop changing themselves to meet beauty standards because when they do stop changing nature, they automatically start becoming closer to the ideal i believe.
