Oh man, did you see that article on plastic surgery for the labia? Dude! Who the hell cares how big your labia is?? I would assume that most guys (or grils) who get an "up close and personal" look at your labia is probably enlightened enough about female genitalia to not really care about the size of the labia anyhow!

Geez, I don't even know whether my labia is average-sized or big or small or whatever. It's never even occurred to me to CARE.

I certainly prefer people to like or at least accept their genitals rather than find them disgusting or deviant, but couldn't the subject matter of this blog be just a teensy bit self-obsessed? Reminds me of a feminist version of Leah McLaren.

Does this mean I will start getting spam for labia enhancement?

Could it be another side-dish of the porn industry?

Could be, skadie. But I've seen a ton of porn in my lifetime, and it's never even occurred to me to wonder whether my labia or clitoris looks "right", you know? In fact, most of them look pretty similar to me. It would never occur to me to say, "Wow, look at the huge honking labia on THAT woman!"

I don't know. Do guys care about labia size, or genital size in general on women? Of course, I've heard talk about "tightness" when it comes to the vagina, so over my lifetime (and since giving birth) I have given thought to that particular issue. But not to what my genitalia LOOKS like. I just find that really odd, and disturbing if it really is a new "trend" in feminine insecurity.

I suppose. I'm just thinking that I don't know too many women who would get plastic surgery on their naughty bits. I surely wouldn't. Geez, that's probably the only part of my body that I'm NOT unhappy with, and now I'm supposed to feel insecure about it too?

And I thought MEN were the only ones concerned with size... But maybe this is a male obsession thing too... However, in my fleeting experience with the opposite sex... .... I have found that every thing on a woman, except for her breasts are supposed to be very very small and hairless... especially our neither regions... (ugh)

Actually, I find hairlessness appealing - aesthetically, hygienically and sensually. I'm tired of trimming pubic hair, having it get caught in my underwear, the difficulty of keeping it clean when its a catch-all for bodily secretions. I plan on waxing, big time.

Labia (sung to the tune of Layla, by Eric Clapton)

What'll you do when everybody
Is telling you you need a tuck or snip?
You've been listening to all the wrong advice
It's time you learned to love your lips.


Labia, they're awfully fun to tease,
Labia, orchid or fleur de lis,
Labia, a neverending feast of womankind.

We've tried to give you information,
But you've felt your twat has let you down.
Like a fool, you think your frillies are uncool
Let's turn this vulva-hate around.

Labia, from umber to deep rose,
Labia, they feel nice on my nose,
Labia, in every shape and size they're so divine.

Let's pull this train out of the station
Before I finally go insane.
So today, you give those velvet curtains say
And sing their praises, not complain.

Labia, a tasty, fleshy treat,
Labia, so wonderful to eat,
Labia, kneel down and pray before your petaled shrine.

Labia, can't play this on guitar, but
Labia, are just perfect as they are
Labia, darlings won't you learn to treat them kind.

A couple of drinks + a couple of joints + a keyboard (seems to)= Anna talking about (not only her own, but also her GF's) labia...

No no, it's more of the genius mind that is Heather Corinna.
