Girls, generally, say 18-21 year olds, labia size and no pubic hair? Normal? Picture attached. Warning.

I'm sorry for asking this question. I just wondered.
Have recently seen a few clips from tv show 'Naked Attraction'.
I know its not everyone's cup of tea. Quite contentious.

Not of much interest to me either really.
But I was quite fascinated by all the girls. Young, pretty, lovely.

But they all had very very neat labia. none hanging down.
AND they all had no pubic hair at all. Not even a French with a small strip of pubic hair.
All completely hair free.

So, is very neat? AND no pubic hair, completely the norm, these days?

Will our teenage boys, encounter this, as the norm?

I attach a picture, of which I just googled, just to show how neat and tight and firm all the labia on the show looked. Hope its not offensive.

Olderandcolder I agree with you absolutely. I was one of the suicidal 15 year olds.
People are very quick to express their disgust, and it shows.

Health professionals have never batted an eyelid. Not even a disguised intake of breath.

I don't think having them cut off does anything for anyone but the disgusted bystander. If I had mine cut off, it would not help as it is part of the structure of my vulva. Really, it would take more sophisticated plastic surgery to do a proper job, and that is not what seems to be on offer. It works very well in every other aspect anyway. If the skin was getting damaged I might do it.

I don't think men are disgusted by differences in vulva, as much as women. Maybe because the average man has seen a few a different ones.
The lack of knowledge amongst women is staggering. I am even beginning to believe that some women really dont know they have three holes.

I don't think it has ever crossed DH's mind at all Wink

Thank you olderandcolder. Very well put.
As i said on the other very similar thread I'm astounded that so many women are shocked that vulvas come in all shapes and sizes.
Even if you haven't seen many to compare, all our other body parts vary from person to person, why would anyone assume that every vulva looks like theirs.
My labia grew quite long during puberty and has stayed pretty much the same since after having 2 dcs. So i can't attribute mine to childbirth.

I'm amazed you all know the dimensions of your labia viewed straight on at labia level, I've had mine for 50 years and have no clue how far they dangle front on.

snozzlemaid · 19/09/2017 18:27

I've no idea of dimensions having never measured them but it's perfectly clear they are not neatly tucked in.

Genitalia (male and female) really are ridiculously ugly. I've no idea why anyone would want to shave or wax, it's not like they are a particularly attractive body part, much better hidden by hair IMO.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 19/09/2017 19:44

Ugly? Seriously? I think they're beautiful.

I think naked attraction is fascinating, but I find their genitalia very different to each other and in a way I think its good for women to see that.
I remember getting very annoyed on here when I did have my bits waxed once as I said that DH didn't like it as it looked very pre-pubescent. Lots of comment that it couldn't have...but mine does. Even after three children and three vaginal births (once traumatic) my bits look very enclosed like my daughters.

(I also think the penises are really interesting too).

Polkadot1974 · 19/09/2017 20:34

I get the feeling some of the "mine are still very neat after childbirth" are having a wee stealth boast about something which porn and that programme have shown to be desirable. I've watched naked attraction hoping to be reassured about my body and could have cried at the neat fannies and as for the pert, upwards pointing nipples on a girl who had baby twins? Very upsetting to someone who has always had saggy tits

LegoShmego · 19/09/2017 23:59

I hear you polka I was getting on with the show quite happily until one guy (who seemed like a bit of a twat anyway) said that a fanny looked like a pack of ham! It basically looked like mine Blush
