PMSL at Klaw.

themoon66 · 17/08/2008 23:25

Argh... DH is watching a dvd.... I guess I will have to accept that fanjo re-adjustment ops are not for me

expatinscotland · 17/08/2008 23:42

fucking hell!

the only way i'd get surgery down there is to repair it if it had a fistula after childbirth or prolapse or something like that.

Tatties · 18/08/2008 10:16

Agree Turquoise. I find it deeply saddening that some people feel that they have to turn to surgery when they are normal

candyfluff · 18/08/2008 11:21

totally cringing at the love your vagina workshop hehehehehe what a load of old bollocks!!!!!

falcon · 18/08/2008 12:39

It was very interesting yet sad.

I really liked Rosie, she seems very sweet and I felt so sorry for her when she was undergoing surgery and dealing with the aftermath of it.

She should really ditch the sister though, what a bitch!

cheesesarnie · 18/08/2008 12:42

i watched it and really didnt get it.ive never even thought 'does my vagina look odd in this'.what makes a pretty fofo?and the whole talking to your fanny and making friends was very odd.

blowsy · 18/08/2008 12:43

I thought this was an interesting programme. I felt sorry for that young girl; operation looked grim but I think she did the right thing - her inner labia were so baggy, surely it would be uncomfortable?

I identified with what they said about the modern day waxing. I have regular brazilians, and it's true, it does make you look at your bits more!

Twiglett · 18/08/2008 12:50

I didn't actually realise that the inner lips could hang down outside the outer ones like that .. and the fact that a natural variance on measurement is 10mm to 100mm is quite astounding

and the vagina is inside anyway .. harrumph

falcon · 18/08/2008 12:57

Discomfort didn't seem to be an issue for her Blowsy, certainly if it was she didn't mention it.

She seems to have had the surgery solely because her sister and ''friends'' were cruel to her about it.

Twiglett · 18/08/2008 13:04

I think if I was a young girl and standing in a nightclub whilst sister 10 blokes discussed my 'ugly' ladygarden I'd be traumatised and want to do something about it too

luckymummy74 · 18/08/2008 13:06

I thought this prog was very interesting. My bits certainly took a turn for the worse after DC1, and I hated look of it ('baggy' for want of a better word!). However, after DC2, I did loads of pelvic floor ex's and Huzzah!!! My fanjo is back to normal, no unwanted lettuce leaves hanging down!!! .

Watching the prog last night made me realise I was normal either way, but feel happier now, and no painful surgery either!

Wasn't Lisa Rogers brave getting so involved, in the name of 'work'.

My fave bit was when she decided that asking that vile man (decorator) to get his cock out and laugh at it was 'beyond acceptable for someone who I have employed to paint my beams'....PMSL!!!

CatIsSleepy · 18/08/2008 13:12

didn't watch the whole thing but felt v. sorry for the young girl with the horrible sister
seems such a shame to go through that kind of surgery at such a young age

lucky that bit with the painter made me laugh too...god he was no answer to a young girl's prayer was he? can't imagine he had the opportunity to be that picky about women's bits

I think....women should cultivate a luxuriant ladygarden and not worry so much about what their fannies look like

luckymummy74 · 18/08/2008 13:16

I nearly vomitted when 'the decorator' said...." I like a bit of oral, giving and receiving".....I don't know what would be worse....LOL!!!

luckymummy74 · 18/08/2008 13:18

Was a bit confused when surgeon showed Lisa pic of 'before' fanny (looked really weird!) and after, and she said that 'before' one looked completely normal to her????.

My Dh was wondering if next time I meet up with my mates, are we gonna all sit around discussing and showing each other our 'yonies'???!!!

TheCrackFox · 18/08/2008 14:29

Did anyone notice that the vile decorator had the worst sweat patches? Can't imagine he has seen that many lady gardens in real life.

mum2samandalex · 18/08/2008 16:21

omg i just dont get it surely anormal man doesnt even care what it looks like if hes going to get lucky. My only concerns for my ladygarden whether it smells and looks clean and since having children whether its not too big as for my fanny flappers well who cares its ridiculous

Blu · 18/08/2008 16:46

I really really hope that as many women as possible saw that decorator bloke have his say, and that he finds that from now on every woman on the planet declines to have her fanjo judged by that moron!

The presenters comments about him made me laugh, though - 'seems a bit much to ask of someone you only got in to paint your beams'.

Synopsis for anyone who missed it:

Presenter on a crusade to fond out about women who have cosmetic surgery on thier fannies, and, if possible, stop the trend!

Case study one - a 21 y.o who had been publicly teased for having labia miora which stood prpoud of the lab. majoria. (i.e very common). She subjected herself to having her labia sliced off - it took painful weeks to heal.

Case study two - a women who had always felt hers was not normal...presnter took her to see an artist in Brighton who is building a whole wall of sculptures of real women's vulvas. he seemed nice - every women who saw the wall said how re-assuring they found it - to see the wide range of what was comepletetly normal. Both the presenter and the woman had their fanjos coved in blue molding stuff - and found it very normalising and re-assuting. Woman's thoughts of surgery dispelled.

case study 3: a creepy surgeon talked about the operations he conducts. he showed a pic of a 16 year old who did have very extensive labia minora. Presenter then allowed herself to be examined by him and have him comment on whether she could be improved by surgery. She said she found it uncomfortable to be assessed by him - he made comments about her having 'thin' labia...but declared her pretty normal.

Cast study 4 - a lovely woman who had had some children and her DH had made vile comments about a baggy fanjo. She was considering surgery. She attended a 'healing workshop' run by a slightly mad woman who made them all look at themselves in a mirror and have imaginary convos with thier 'yonis'. Howver the woman found itv v positive, realised she was normal and happy to be a woman. Dispelled thoughts of surgery.

Slight detour into hymen re-construction.

Various interviews with presnters friends who all said they hadnever , and would never, find it necessary to judge a fanjo...and a decorator who said apalling things.

I thought it was good. Could have done with less emotional presenter sobbing in taxis.

I liked the artsist guy - and his wall of vulvas.

bea · 18/08/2008 16:51

shocking prog... ! made me cringe all the way... however almost equally shocked at lisa rodgers wiping each ball clean/dry? from her daughters ball pool !!!!

Hecate · 18/08/2008 16:56

So not only is a woman supposed to be a perfect wife and devoted mother and boardroom exec and anthea-turner-type housewife and sexual dynamo and dedicated daughter and PA to her bloke, remembering all HIS appts, dates and location of his keys at all times, and always knowing where everything is in the house and taxi driver and world class chef and perfect hostess and....

Now we have to have a neat symetrical tight and beautiful fanny or we're still not good enough?

Hold onto something - The earth has just been pushed out of its orbit, propelled by the force with which Emmeline Pankhurt is spinning in her grave.

NotAnOtter · 18/08/2008 18:11

aren't the labia designed to swell up during arousal thus 'hugging' the penis and enhancing sexual pleasure for both parties

those trimmed bits do nothing for my dp

Klaw · 18/08/2008 18:14

I still NEED to know what effects it's going to have on future childbirth, have been googling like mad.

One site said it actually made 'childbirth easier' Really? I need an explanantion

Another site said it would be preferable to wait until after childbirth, but not essential.

Lazarou · 18/08/2008 18:18

Mine needs stitching back up. The midwife said it didn't at the time, but then at a checkup she said the tear was a lot worse than she first thought.
I would definitely have surgery privately if I could afford it.
