Designer Vagina

First it was breast implant surgery to have bigger boobs, and now we have this phenomenon of ‘designer vaginas’.

Has the world gone totally mad?

Cosmetic surgery should be banned. It is unnecessary (except in the case of a mastectomy or some injury) and as all surgeries presents a considerable risk of deformation or death.

More women want ‘designer vagina’

UNREALISTIC IDEAL: Doctors report a 140 per cent increase in the number of women seeking cosmetic genital surgery in Australia.

Doctors and women’s groups are concerned at the increasing number girls and women – some as young as 12 – requesting cosmetic genital surgery.

One Melbourne gynaecologist said the social pressure on women to be ”normal” started early, with school-aged girls often coming in with their mothers seeking help.

Dr Sonia Grover said young girls were concerned with looking different and often requested labiaplasties, a procedure to change the size and shape of the external coverings of the vagina. ”These requests come from lack of understanding of what is considered normal and this found across all ages groups of both men and women,” she said.

Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists vice president Ajay Rane said the trend was informed by a culture based on being physically perfect.

”The promotion of the ‘designer vagina’ and other genital myths often pressure the most vulnerable in our community to seek unnecessary surgery,” Professor Rane said.

”It is greatly concerning that more of these women are seeking to alter their genitals for purely cosmetic reasons.”

I have nothing further to say, apart from the fact I think this is absolutely stupid.

  1. Wow! Girls as young as 12?!? I’m not a fan of elective plastic surgery but at least wait until adulthood. Some of these people need therapy, not surgery.

  2. […] Then yesterday I read about ‘designer vaginas’ where women want custom made perfect vaginas. I posted on that on They Say it’s in the Genes. […]

    I want a designer vagina!!!! I even just talked about it tidying my shit up in my blog, which is what led me to yours. I think it’s stupid for a school age child to do it, but I am tired of my labia getting all caught up in my panties. Yes to labiaplasties…if you are an adult who is looking for a little change in your pants.

    • >lifestrickery, I don’t have a vagina, but I can’t imagine messing surgically with my penis, so I assume the same for women, but then I don’t understand the associated problems you have with panties… each to his/her own, I guess, but I am still against the idea for ‘cosmetic’ reasons.

      Thanks for the visit and comment, appreciated.
