Cosmetic surgery or Genital Mutilation?

05/27/2007 by Debra

Patients who sought genitoplasty “uniformly” wanted their vulvas to be flat and with no protrusion, similar to the prepubescent look of girls in Western fashion ads, pornography and on genitoplasty web sites.

Wonderful, what adult woman doesn’t want to help fulfil her partners daddy fantasy by looking like a little girl in her “special area”?

*excuse me while I go throw up

Here is a site that offers these procedures, and here is some of what they offer

Labiaplasty (labia reduction & beautification) and other female cosmetic surgical procedures including Vaginoplasty (rejuvenation or tightening of the vagina) and Clitoral Unhooding (Hoodectomy)

Here is the WHO fact sheet on Female Genital Mutalition
Type III – excision of part or all of the external genitalia and stitching/narrowing of the vaginal opening (infibulation);

Hmm kind of hard to spot the difference.

Oh wait I see the difference the first is FGS while the second is FGM. So I guess all they really need to do is change one letter and hey presto they aren’t committing an indignity they are providing her with low cost plastic surgery. Maybe they could open shop invite a few North Americans over and in one swell foop become respected surgeons.

Female Genital Surgery (FGS)—of which Vaginal Plastic Surgery is part—is a demanding surgical field

According to a Swedish study;

RESULTS:47 women had been operated, more than 50% had been operated at two or more occasions. 11 patients had only vaginoplasty done and in the remaining women it was combined with clitoroplasty. The cosmetic appearance as well as the function of clitoris and vagina are often not optimal. There is also a need from these patients to be able to discuss former surgery, especially since it was common in this group to state that the functional result has influenced their sexual life negatively.

From the surgical site;

8. Could labiaplasty cause insensitivity?

There is no physiological association for sensory pleasure with the labia—that function is served by the clitoris. The only sensation elicited from labia is pain upon tearing or stretching. Labiaplasty can’t cause a loss of sensitivity when done correctly.

There is no sensation for pleasure in the labia??? Obviously spoken by someone who doesn’t have any.

and this assertion is repeated in CAPS just in case you didn’t believe it the first time. But it is ever so much more believable now that it is in bigger letters

14. I have read that after labiaplasty a woman can experience lifelong sexual arousal problems. Is this true?

No!! This is a common fallacy and it is completely wrong. The media, which at times misinterprets accurate medical information, commonly helps propagates this rumor as a means of creating controversy or sensationalism. It is well known MEDICAL FACT that the labia have sensory nerve fibers that ONLY transmit pain sensation, when stretched or torn. There is NO SEXUAL STIMULATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE LABIA MINORA.

The surgery to shorten the vagina boggles my mind. Really this surgery can surely be done for one reason only, to make him feel like he’s bigger than he is. And I suppose too it harkens back to the doing it with a prepubescent. I was just sick a little again.

In short ladies love your lips whatever size and shape they may be. Each and every vulva is a unique and beautiful thing and does not deserve to be sliced and diced.

If you are unfortunate enough to be saddled with someone who expects you to look like someone else cut him out of your life not your labia.

Vagina Verboten

03/07/2007 by Debra

Vagina VerbotenIn a stunning display of stupidity, a New York school has suspended 3 honour students for using the word vagina. Oh did I mention it was during a reading from the Vagina Monologues?

The excerpt from “Monologues” was read Friday night, among various readings at an event sponsored by the literary magazine at John Jay High School in Cross River, a New York City suburb. Among the other readings was a student’s original work and the football coach quoting Shakespeare.

The girls took turns reading the excerpt until they came to the word, then said it together.

“My short skirt is a liberation flag in the women’s army,” they read. “I declare these streets, any streets, my vagina’s country.”

But Principal Richard Leprine said Tuesday that the girls were punished because they disobeyed orders, not because of what they said.

The event was open to the community, including children, and the word was not appropriate, Leprine said in a statement. He said the girls had been told when they auditioned that they could not use the word.

Reback said Tuesday that no one in the audience was younger than high school age. “What did we do that was so wrong?” she asked. “We were insubordinate, but the reason we were insubordinate was that we talked about our body.”

Now granted they ‘only’ received a one day in school suspension.

More importantly, they received a monumental life lesson on what it means to be born with a vagina.
