Houston, We Have a Vulva Problem

Posted on November 8, 2011 by Genevieve

I recently received a phone call from one of my friends who told me that our mutual friend, who is pregnant, asked if the baby was going to come out of her pee hole. I was flabbergasted because this woman is college-educated and 30! I would have assumed that somewhere along the way she would have stumbled upon some information about her Vulva. This incident reminds me of the episode on The Office where Dwight asks Toby where the clitoris was located. I agree with Toby, our public school system and parents have obviously failed many of our youth when it comes to basic sexual and reproductive health information. If you or a loved one has never been introduced to the glorious vulva, then today is your lucky day! If you would like additional information on how to feel more comfortable and accepting of the area “down there” or watch this clip from Oprah.
