I'm a bloke so strictly speaking this doesn't affect me.

But there's something slightly disturbing about this. Or is there, really, if it's only a minor procedure and women feel better about themselves?

I think women are worrying unnecessarily. I am usually so pleased to be getting some action I couldn't give a damn what she looks like down there!

[i]Becky goes to the gynocologist who examines her and says, "Wow! You have the biggest labia I've ever seen!" Becky turns red and says, "I know Dr. It's really been a source of embarassment my entire life!" The doctor eeplies, "Becky, I can reduce it very easily. Making it smaller is a simple operation." "OK," says Becky, "but I don't want anyone to know. The only people who can know must be on a need-to-know basis!"
A week later, Becky awakens from the operation in a hospital room filled to the brim with flowers. "Dr., she exclaims, "This was on a need-to-know basis! Where did all of these flower come from?" "It was on a need-to-know basis," he replied. "One dozen roses was from me for your being such a good patient! The rest are from Mr. Goldstein on the Burn Unit on the fourth floor who wants to thank you for his new ears!"

It's not disturbing. It should be, but we've become a society so intently focussed on irrelevance that this sort of thing should shock no one.

We think we can buy our way out of any issues. What few seem to realise is that all the botox, make-up, silicon and aesthetic genital modification in the world won't bring an end to the hollow empty feeling we're all constantly and mistakenly trying to buy our way out of.

We have commodified everything else, including friendship and love, so why not our bodies?

Some women are self conscious about bigger internal labia...I myself am quite partial! 😀

Okay, I generalise, and this is STW where to generalise is to leave gaping and glaringly obvious chinks in the armour of any point.

You might have found clarity SFB, and if so I'd say you're among a priviledged minority far outnumbered by the countless millions trapesing round shopping malls spending their overdrafts on irrelevant things they don't need, those staggering uncontrollably drunk from bar to bar on weekend nights, and those obsessing about directional speaker cables, screen size, high megapixel counts, complex compression damping circuits and rear axle paths.

Plus, I'm quite partial to a meaty vag.

I worked on a Burns and Reconstructive Surgery ward (Plastic Surgery as was) in the late '80's, this was a relatively common procedure and the reason the ladies gave for having the surgery? Their blokes told 'em to!
You sound such a reasonable lot on here, thank heavens!

I prefer my woman's bits to not look like a childs. It's the blokes telling them to do it who need help, not the women. And uncomfortable on a bike? You should try sitting on your bollocks girls, then you'll know uncomfy.

Body dysmorphic syndrome.

some people will never be happy and thre cause is often psychological regarding their appearance. you dont hear planes complaining that their flaps are too big do you?

Not wishing to sound like some ranting feminist, but on this forum alone there are some intensely derogotary (sp) personal and insulting comments made about women's physical attributes (Hora!). If you extrapolate that to views that might be prevalent in wider society, it's no wonder that people feel an undue pressure to conform to some imagined/artificially constructed norm.

The only opportunity most women have of seeing other women's 'parts' is in pornography, so a normal woman with irregular and hairy bits might quite easily see herself as somehow monstrous and abnormal. Hence the industry in cosmetic 'correction', waxing, anal bleaching etc etc.

It's easy to be respectful and dignified about the subject until someone says [i]untamed growler like a badly packed kebab[/i]. Then you just realise how funny it all is. 😀

You should be able to get surgery to make them larger – being able to glide around like Dumbo would be an awesome party trick!

How do they decide on the changes they want? Is it like going into a barbers and having loads of pics of people on the wall and saying "I want one of those please"

(For some reason thinking of asking for a "short back and sides" is making me piss myself uncontrollably)

english is such a beautiful language.

Pudenda, mimsy, badly stuffed kebab. On a day when the war poets have been (rightly) lauded on here for their creative use of the language, I'm glad to see the folks here are equally as prosaic. So much so that I've been moved to compose something in praise of proper ladybits.

Hairy, and pale perfect pink.
Like Brian Blessed
Nibbling a slice of bacon.

PS: on the tags - Spaniels ears are particularly saggy breasts, I'll think you'll find. Which is a whole other can of worms

I notice one of the reasons cited for surgery it that some women find it uncomfortable to ride a bike. Surely, it follows therefore that we should all be supportive of this trend. Perhaps it could be subsidised by the tax payer in conjunction with the C2W scheme.

I can only thank my current choice of Deity that I don't now read this forum on a work machine, otherwise I would have had to leave the room very quickly indeed. Pictures would have been pointless, I couldn't see through the tears!

you dont hear planes complaining that their flaps are too big do you?

depends whether it's a fighter or a transport... 😉

I don't get why women are concerned about this. Has any man in the history of the world been in a bedroom with a woman, slowly undressed her and then walked away because he didn't like the curtains?

I'd never heard that term before, until my friend in London started killing herself laughing at a huge advert on the side of a bus for a kid's film called "The Last Mimsy".

mens saddles have " special relief gaps", surely our lady riders deserve similar saddle surgery to prevent them having the need to undergo self mutilation? ( I did know a girl in the army called saddle bags though.....)

aye that raised a few smiles.

Surely it's just mimsy, rather than lady's mimsy?

Thats a whole other body area though!

"mimsy" and it's cute equivelents are just more rediculous "cutesy" terms for things we shouldn't be embarrassed about talking about though, simplifying many intricate parts to one childish forbidden area that can only be spoken of in a childish manner [tut].

simplifying many intricate parts to one childish forbidden area

with respect, having a single word is just pragmatic - in the same way a collection of metal parts including wheels, gears, brakes, frame, bars saddle, cables, hoses is trivialised as a 'bike'...

sfb - yes, but when in general terms are you going to refer to that whole area when describing something, and why does it always have to be a stupid cutesy 5 year olds word? If you broke your bike and were discussing it with someone you knew liked bikes or trusted with bikes you'd not say "I broke my bike", you'd say "I dented my rim" or "I ripped off the rear mech". "I'd like to drill out my rims for lightness". If it was someone who didn't know much about bikes you might say " I broke my bike" but you're less likely to discuss your "mimsy" with people you don't trust/know/already share it with, than you are your bike, so a word for the whole bike is useful, one for the whole "mimsy" is unhelpful and vague and stems from it being "something you shouldn't talk about" that carries on into adulthood in an unhelpful manner. IMO.
