The Labia Library

snip

Concerned by the rise in vaginal rejuvenation surgery Women’s Health Victoria has developed an online resource called The Labia Library, to not only provide information but to show that female genitalia really does come in all shapes and sizes.

A woman’s private parts are often exactly that, so private that we don’t really have a clear picture of how unique we, as women, are to each other. And the way females are represented through pornographic images can make for a skewed image of how a woman might view her own anatomy.

I have been intimate with, well..., a lot of women of all types, races and shapes. I have found most women to be totally clueless on this subject.

On another note, regarding your post your username had me rolling in the aisle.

but I was hoping you would see the humor inherent.

I have always (40+ years) been a serious (and serial) appreciator of Labial Art. While I am, primarily, an 'Eye Guy', I have always been fascinated by the universal differences in labia. They are all beautiful and I cannot see why any woman would want to alter hers. If such 'interest' is generated by porn, it is totally misplaced. I have worked around the porn industry (lighting) and can assure you that the labia of mainstream pornstars are the most mundane and un-interesting. The Industry loves crazy penises but expects pretty boring vaginal images (except for the extreme productions).

Anyway, I had better get out of here before I start sounding like some perv.

I just love 'em.

Glad you got the joke.
