[...] Meanwhile, I discovered that Betty Dodson has already covered the “vagina” territory that I previously blogged about in Read My Lips. Her main comment about the Vagina Monologues is here, written back in 2001. And here I thought I was being original. There’s also some correspondence with Betty regarding the way her Bodysex workshops were mentioned in Eve Ensler’s play here. [...]

Nah, they’re not really all that better educated these days either. My brother’s seventeen and he only knows what and where a clitoris is because, in discussing whether he was sexually intimate with his girlfriend, I asked him — and he looked very confused and said, “No, what’s that?”

Interviewing all of my close friends and a couple of coworkers has confirmed for me that none of them were introduced to the word “clitoris” until well past their mandatory “health class” which may or may not have included specific information for sexual health.

Yeah, it’s a bit sad.

There is no overarching scientific term for the male genitalia (beyond “male genitalia”) and beyond that, society has never mislabelled the penis, scrotum or testicles which is really my point. I mean, if you were brought up thinking that your testicles were the main pleasure-giving organ during sex, you’d feel a little confused and frustrated, wouldn’t you?

As I say in my post, the clitoris – not the vagina – is analgous to the penis, while the scrotum has more in common with the outer labia. Using vulva (or clitoris) rather than “vagina” in our discourse is more accurate and ultimately better for everyone.

If your focus is the entire area then yes vulva is correct, but then shouldn’t you include the testicles with the penis when referring to male genitalia? Vagina and penis are both only part of the package, so they match. What’s the match to vulva?

I just picked up on this fact myself… WHY aren’t we taught the correct words from the time we are old enough to talk? My mom always called my vulva my “cookie.” Which is very cute and all, and I love to tease my husband with that these days, but I wish I’d known VULVA way sooner. Wikipedia has a pretty nifty entry for vulva too if you search for it.

Thanks for this post!!!!

Well you now have me looking up anatomical drawings of female parts on the web.

I do not think I have ever said the word vulva outloud or written it for that matter.

I am converting to vulva. An old dog can learn new tricks.

*smiles* at you.
