Do you want your vagina to smell like a ripe peach?

http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/health/538226/Vagina-smell-peach
Oh my god, your vagina doesn't smell like a juicy stone fruit?

"Well, two Silicon Valley bio-hackers have created a solution to that embarrassing problem.

Austen Heinz and Gilad Gome have developed a probiotic supplement called Sweet Peach that will allow women to alter the smell of their body odours.

"The idea is personal empowerment," said Austen.""

It's sorta like calling your butthole an intestine.

They mean vulva.

obsessed with finding a sexist, degrading solution for a nonexistent problem, and becoming multi-millionaires in the process...

Suffice it to say, I don't think they have had much real-world experience with the womanly bits..

The sole founder and CEO of Sweet Peach Probiotics is a 20-year-old woman named Audrey Hutchinson. A former college student at Bard, where she studied on a full-ride Distinguished Scientist Scholarship, she describes herself as an "ultrafeminist" who dropped out to pursue her vision of helping women manage their reproductive health without the need for doctors or clinics. "I don't think women should have vaginas that smell like peaches or anything like that," she says.

snip...

"I'm obviously sort of appalled that it's been misconstrued like this because it was never the point of my company," she says. "I don't want to apologize for , but at the same time I want to apologize to every woman in the world who's heard about this and wants my head on a stake."
