But actually, there are two different terms, right? Vagina and vulva. No one EVER explained this to me during any part of my sex-ed in high school, nor did any physician during any pelvic exam until I was in my 30s. I hope today's teens are more fluent in female reproductive sex organs than we were!
I've heard great stuff about this book, it reminds me of some of what I learned as a citzen lobbyist for Planned Parenthood years ago! Adding to my cart now.
I love this article! So clever. Invaginate is now one of my new favorite words :-) And lucky you that you had such an informed and communicative doctor.
Love seeing this one for a second time!
Ha, thanks! I would love for this word to be in much bigger circulation in our culture :)
I agree about how silly it is to use all the euphemisms for vagina. We are all adults. We can say vagina.

Yes, exactly right. Every woman needs a real sex education class, or at least a copy of Girl Boner by August McLaughlin.

If I had known this powerful word when I was a GenX teen it would have changed some things, y'know?
Indeed!
