...highlighting my vulva!?

My first thread, so please bear with me.

AIBU to ask what in the world is going on when there's a new product launching this Thursday to highlight vulvas (Not Volvos)!?

I think it's called PerfectV and it's certainly not for victory. Not for women anyway. I understand it's supposed to be some sort of beauty product that helps sort your V out after all the waxing, piercing, vajewelling, etc that goes on down there!

Is it healthy to highlight vulvas? I doubt it very much...

There was a conversation at work the other day about getting ones fanjo preened and pimped to go and get a smear test.

But why???? Confused Surely the only prerequisite is that it's clean. Nothing else.

I'm sure we are only a few hours away from the moment when this is gooped by Gwyneth.

BreakfastAtSquiffanys · 25/07/2017 10:39

Surely your vulva is only visible if you are lying legs akimbo?

A colleague I mentioned this thread and the glitter thread to offered me this old joke.

When it was first started research on transgenic animals, different scientists proposed to cross different animals. There were different suggestions. Until a (insert nationality here) scientist said he was going to cross a firefly with crabs (the sexually transmitted ones)... to make all the pussies glow. Hmm

I won't mention MN to anyone at work ever again.

I think the 'v' refers to the triangle of pubes rather than being short for vulva.

V can be many things to many people: vaj, vulva, v triangle, V trimmed pubic hair - I imagine that's what the women founders wanted... to appeal to as many females as possible!?

I don't think the 'women founders' give one single shit about appealing to women. How many women were crying out for this buying-into-body-hating crap?

Anyone impressed by the "VV Cream"

FUNM · 25/07/2017 15:45

FUNM · 25/07/2017 15:51

^The Perfect V™ was both inspired by and embraces the Scandinavian woman’s lifestyle. Scandinavian women feel comfortable, carefree and confident in their skin, strip in public whatever their age or shape and are at ease with themselves—a very alluring trait. It’s in their DNA, integral to the Scandinavian love of all things natural & simple and makes for a more liberated and beautiful, lifestyle.

WHO CREATED THIS?

The brainchild of Avonda Urben—beauty brand specialist, entrepreneur, and innovator, a New York City native currently residing on the outskirts of Copenhagen—this visionary new product line, was inspired by her experience on both continents and…our “V.” American super polish meets Scandinavian effortless freedom–a compelling combination that created something radical, relevant and definitely overdue.

The Perfect V™ range of beauty products is designed to keep your ‘V’ in shape, and make you feel good all over - whether you want to bare it all, or lose your underwear anywhere, anytime, Fifth Avenue or Strøget.

In the words of the legendary Diana Vreeland, “give them what they never even knew they wanted…” and The Perfect V™ does.

CAN EVEN THE PRETTIEST LINGERIE EVER COMPETE?^

Who writes this crap? Ladies if u ever want to just 'lose your underwear' pmsl

If you want to comment on the Youtube video

VladmirsPoutine · 25/07/2017 16:05

If it's not for you then don't buy it. I personally won't be buying it either.

It's not another 'attack' on women's self-esteem.

If you don't want to shave your legs or under arms don't. If you don't want to be tanned and a size 6 then you don't have to be.

You have something called a choice.

FUNM · 25/07/2017 16:12

We missed the European launch ... if all those young ladies need their V rejuvenated, then we are all in trouble theperfectv.com/blogs/news/stockholm-sweden-the-perfect-v-launch

LellyMcKelly · 25/07/2017 16:34

I did read an article about men contouring their cooks.

LellyMcKelly · 25/07/2017 16:34

Not cooks. Cocks. I imagine their cooks would be quite offended.

lemureyes · 25/07/2017 16:52

Wow. Just wow.
The fact it's actually a company scares me!
Do people really care that much?! 😂

I could not give a flying F about how mine looks and my husband isn't bothered either! If I suddenly decided to throw glitter anywhere near that area I think he would book me into some home 😂

The comments on this are absolute genius!

Edsheeranalbumparty · 25/07/2017 16:55

Why would a bloke want to contour their cock though? Contouring generally is to make something look smaller/thinner/a different shape by creating shadow? Not the objective of most blokes I would have thought, unless they have an enormous one and don't want to scare the ladies off when it gets whipped out!

winobaglady · 25/07/2017 17:05

Hmm, perhaps they'd be successful with a Great spot indicator.

Just sayin' GrinWink

PoochSmooch · 25/07/2017 17:08

WTF are freshening sheets? Fancy bog roll?

Am PMSL at the idea that growlers can have aesthetics, Scandinavian or otherwise. Presumably well kept Mumsnet fanjos will be done out in Farrow and Ball Elephant's Breath Grin
