Coworker taking feminism back 100 years

A coworker of mine is using her body to get where she wants and has qualms about it. She has quickly received two promotions and I fear they have been gained by inappropriate means. She wears these tight pants where you can see the outline of her labia. I don't know how to address this or knock some sense into her without coming off as jealous or threatened. It's like, cover your tits and use your brain even if it means struggling like the rest of us. Just because you have a fancy vergina doesn't mean you can use it to get ahead of the rest of us who prefer to keep our legs closed.

Oh the irony of that OP!

Bair · 24/05/2015 17:27

She must have some cracking labia. My flaps never got me anywhere.

messyisthenewtidy · 24/05/2015 17:27

You shouldn't keep your legs closed for too long OP, you might get a UTI Grin

SaskiaRembrandtWasFramed · 24/05/2015 17:30

There's a small town in Greece called Vergina. Not sure if it's fancy though.

ASAS · 24/05/2015 17:32

Labia? Gotta love mn over a bank holiday!

WhirlpoolGalaxyM51 · 24/05/2015 17:32

That is a fantastic op Grin

Bizarrely reminds me of a young man I used to work with who always wore incredibly snug trousers. I don't know if they ever got him anywhere though. I suppose while his package and arse were on good display, I don't remember thinking any of it particularly "fancy". That may have held him back, in the end.

Mide7 · 24/05/2015 17:32

Grin bair that would have been funny anyway but it's doubly so because you used the word flaps. I'm mature

Optimist1 · 24/05/2015 17:34

OP - take a hint from your Username!

SommerenAldrigKommer · 24/05/2015 17:36

that never gets a woman where she wants. Unless what she wants is to be ridiculed and passed over for promotion or sacked in the next round of redundancies.

This is what bitter men think though. That women just have to shag an ugly bloke twenty years their senior and they get a great job.

Blarblarblar · 24/05/2015 17:39

A hoof does not get you promoted.

catfishing · 24/05/2015 17:41

I got my vice chairmanship as a direct result of my velvety vulva

Blarblarblar · 24/05/2015 17:42

And from now on I will refer to my Verrrrrrgina makes it sound all sports car like Grin

Blarblarblar · 24/05/2015 17:42

Haaaaaaa catfish love it

messyisthenewtidy · 24/05/2015 17:44

Sigh...I wish I had this mythical labiacal power that men speak of...that I would just walk down the street and men would fall over at my feet, offering me jobs, money and want to feed me grapes.

When I walk down the street nothing happens and sometimes I even get splashed by a car. Confused I fear my flaps are just average.

SommerenAldrigKommer · 24/05/2015 17:48

True!

No man has ever offered me anything! No privilege has ever been given to me by a man because I'm female. I've fought harder to get less. Confused

iklboo · 24/05/2015 17:50

So....it wasn't my camel hair coat my boss liked Shock

shaska · 24/05/2015 17:56

I use my body to get what I want all the time. Just made a cup of tea with it. Might go to the shops in a bit.

Labia though, I've long thought they're fucking useless.

shaska · 24/05/2015 17:59

Oh DAMN I've just twigged that it's a fancy vergina. Probably more useful than mine.

Is it from M&S?

HoneyDragon · 24/05/2015 18:01

Anyone else now singing....

Best Verginia, mountain muffa, promote me home, country roads.....

No?

Just me then

messyisthenewtidy · 24/05/2015 18:02

But seriously OP I'm sure Labia is very good at her job and that's why she got promoted.

Don't get in a flap about it .... (sorry couldn't help myself)

SaskiaRembrandtWasFramed · 24/05/2015 18:02

I'm wondering about the pants - are they pants as in trousers, or pants as in knickers. If the latter I can see why she raises a few eyebrows.

YonicScrewdriver · 24/05/2015 18:06

My labia just made me a Brew Shaska. So nerrrr.

Wink
TyrannosaurusBex · 24/05/2015 18:06

You'd make a more convincing 'girl' if you could spell the word for ladybits correctly, OP.

shushgirl · 24/05/2015 18:31

I use VERgina because it belongs to HER and by calling it that it gives us power over our own body.

PenguinsandtheTantrumofDoom · 24/05/2015 18:32

She walks around the office in just her pants and has a camel toe? Wow, that wouldn't have got you a promotion in my office. Possibly a nice chat with HR and a concerned head tilt as to where your trousers had gone. Followed by a swift compromise agreement.

But not a promotion.

I'm also finding the anatomy hard. Her pants are so tight that she needs to also cover her tits. That sounds one hell of a wedgie.
