Waxing, Steaming and Vajazzling – OH MY!

March 27, 2017

Do you ever stop to think how incredible the vagina is? It allows for mind-blowing pleasure, cleans and lubricates itself better than any self-cleaning oven, enlarges during intercourse and can even push out tiny humans.

No matter what the shape size or color, vaginas are beautiful and fierce. So why do so many of us futz with them and the whole vulva region?

 

Changing the look, color, shape, size, smell has become increasingly commonplace and a booming commercial (i.e., profit-driven) industry. Having options and the freedom to do as we wish to and with our bodies are tremendous gifts. At the same time, I think it’s super important that we make informed decisions and realize that there’s not a single darn “flawed” or “broken” thing about them.

I loved chatting with writer Rachel Khona last week on Girl Boner Radio. We explored waxing, shaving, pubic hair, douching, vagina steaming, vajazzling, vibrators, feminism, objectification and OMG, we could have gone on for days! Then Dr. Megan Fleming weighed in for a listener whose girlfriend wants cosmetic vaginoplasty and he’s concerned about the risks. Adored what she had to say.

Stream the episode on iTunes or here:

Nab Rachel’s newly released memoir here: Are You There Krishna? It’s Me Rachel. Or Reshma. Or Whatever. Essays on Talking to Ghosts, Accosting Celebrities, Getting High, Sexism, Race, and First-Generation Woes.

Find the fun kit I reviewed thanks to The Pleasure Chest here: Sweet Spot Kit.

Your turn! What have you done to your genital region, and why? What treatments have you loved, loathed or laughed about? I love hearing from you.

    Yeah, I’ve done a lot to my vajayjay in the name of love. I’m over that now.

      Yes! And I love it, especially the conclusion (where you are now).

    You know that guys get this also, to a point. Our penises are never big enough or, sometimes, too big. Women can be very picky when they want to, especially if they really don’t want to mess with you. I spoke to a woman once (not flirting, just talking) and she said that she never has sex with a man who is less than either 8 or 10in (can’t remember now) because she moves around a lot and it slips out and who likes that? I am told the average length of a male member is 5-6 inches. I know the longest is, well, too large. The man with that, I believe, stated that he didn’t get much sex because he scared the women when they saw him. I am also under the belief (from experience) that most women’s G-spot is about 2-3 inches into their vaginas. So, theoretically, a 2-3 inch penis should be enough in the majority of the cases. I just know that my index finger runs right at 3 inches and works just fine…Thanks, August, you always get the truth said. And it needs to be.

      Indeed, size matters a lot less than how one uses it! And there really are countless ways to give and experience pleasure. Thanks for weighing in, Scott, and for the kind words!

    I have to admit, I’m not the biggest fan of bugging myself with a bush down there. I occasionally go for waxing – when I feel like. It hurts and isn’t the purest joy. But it makes me feel better afterwards. For a few weeks.
    In summer I go a little more often, in winter a little less…
