Perhaps we have a sacred responsibility to celebrate love, including s*xual love, wherever it appears.

Interesting article.

(Singular of labiae is labia.)

Actually, labia is the plural of labium.

“I have wondered if this surgical procedure is available for men, and how many are taking it up. But which bits are considered the untidy bits?”

Maybe ask the blokes who celebrate the Feast of the Circumcision (what is on the menu I would not know)

Interesting.

The rationale for radical female genital mutilation in places like Somalia is that it maks the woman look clean.

I reckon the labia has the same function as the foreskin. Well the outer labia anyway. But that's a nice tale of the dangers of censorship. Encourages women to chop at their bits it does!

Hey one day it will be a fetish to see protruding inner lips and pubic hair on a woman. Like Steve martin all confused in LA story when he grabs a woman's breasts and asks why they feel funny. 'Oh, they're real' she explains.

No wonder 'vintage' porn is popular these days, as it cant be because of the moustaches.

I think the money for most cosmetic surgery would be better spent on a psychiatrist.
