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.
|
|
No, but it's what I have so I have come to accept it. I love
the look of labia minor lips that protrude slightly, and mine
don't. Due to childbirth, weight loss and gain, my major lips
which were always puffy, are now slightly wrinkled and the color
is somewhat different.

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 I have
seen other vaginas. mostly photographs, etc. I like the minora lips to
protrude slightly, with flatter major lips. I think it is incredibly
beautiful and think if you have it be proud of it. Mine is what you might
call the medical standard.

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?
|
|
37. I first
looked at my vagina when I was 7 or 8, and when I began menstruating
at 12, my mother encouraged me to look at it in a mirror and compare
it to a diagram that she had in a book. I took the book into the bathroom
and can remember both looking at it and touching it. It wasn't long after
this that I discovered masturbation. I trim my pussy, and shave my outer
hair so I look at my vagina about every 2 or 3 days. I masturbate approximately
3 times a week, and I touch it every chance I get when bathing, etc.

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
and past lovers have always said that I have a great pussy with pretty
pouty lips, and a great taste and smell. I have been fortunate to have
lovers that truly love women and love to "go down," but it
is not in my personality to ask about my own body. It seems too much
like fishing for compliments, and I would doubt their sincerity if I
asked, but I would talk to anyone about it freely.

this conversation
makes me think...
|
|
I am absolutely
for honest communication and open exchange of infomation amongst women
about women's issues and their bodies. I am even more for conveying an
open, honest attitude about these issues to our daughters.
