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.
|
|
I don't care about the way it looks, although if I stop to think about it I would like it to have a lighter colour, like the inside of my mouth.

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 have seen a couple of porn images. one from a movie, for one split second, and very few others in photographs. I found them all a bit disturbing in that the labia majora were shaved, which to me looks childlike and unnatural.

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 27. I looked at my vagina often when I was in my mid-teens. I didn't like it then- I was surprised by the *existence* of the labia minora! and my clit felt bigger than it looked

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?
|
|
nothing too significant. Some liked pubic hair. Some didn't like or dislike it. One made it very clear that he liked the taste/smell of it.

this conversation makes me think...
|
|
It's sad that some people dislike the taste/smell of vaginas.
