Sometimes I wonder if nature is trying to make me giggle. This lovely genital gem came in a bag with several other avocados from the market, but none of the others shared its labial allure. There’s even a little circular depression where a clitoris would be, were this avocado an actual vulva. I almost can’t [...]

Someone has made my week. An anonymous street artist in Halifax, Nova Scotia is attaching felt vulvas to the groins of statues throughout the city. I adore not only felt vulvas, but also appearances of fabric vulvas (in this case, velvet and satin) in unlikely places. Is this ‘vulva-nator’ (as Jamie Frevele at theMarySue.com calls [...]

I came across this genital in the wild while having lunch with a sex educator friend at a cafe in North Melbourne. To our mutual delight, the table was adorned with this labial decor.

I’ve seen various versions of vulva cupcakes on the internet (including this youtube video which frustratingly calls them ‘vagina cupcakes’) and was inspired to get some sex-positive friends together to make our own versions. My sex educator friends were especially keen on the [...]

Today when I was walking to class, I stumbled upon this little gem on campus. I’m not quite sure what exactly a “vulva at work” means, or what this is supposed to represent, but regardless, it’s awesome. I knew I had to post it- especially since two friends texted me this picture within the span [...]

In all the places to find interesting sex-positive talk, I was informed of this link while listening to SModcast with Kevin Smith. He and his hetero-lifemate Scott Mosier expressed their disappointment in our society for the censorship that we feel we need to impose on our children, including basic anatomy talk from a famous teenaged [...]

Shave it? Wax it? Au Naturale? Landing Strip? With so many options for our curly hairs down there, it’s hard to know what’s really best for you. There are so many pubic hair styles to choose from! So man ways to feature one’s vulva! But personally, I’m on par with the message of my new [...]

Last week, I was delighted to discover that some very dear friends of mine sent me this wonderful felted vulva they made, all the way from Maryland. If you’re unfamiliar with this type of craft, it describes “a process called wet felting, where the natural wool fibre is stimulated by friction and lubricated by moisture” [...]
