Yes - that's right, not my words, no the words of written law. Vagina's are too offensive and need to be "tidy" to be shown. In other words, any vagina that goes out into the public sphere has to be digitally hacked. Parts of a woman's downstairs is completely removed to appear more nice....instead of normal. Basically the equivalent of photo-shopping a naked man's balls off because they simply are not aesthetically pleasing.
Woman in soft core men's porn magazines must emulate a Barbie dolls smooth spot between her legs, instead of god forbidding having any kind of labia. That dirty little word does not sit well with the big wigs so it is simply cut out, removed, scraped because it is deemed not "tidy."
Balls are not tidy but if we brushed them out of images imagine the up roar, imagine the people screaming how it is warping little boys image of themselves and how people are playing God. Yet when it is done to women, people muse silently and mummer discomfort.
Labiaplasty, or vagina surgery is on the rise because girls feel like they look abnormal because what they see down there isn't what they see in front of them. They feel less like a woman and more like a freak - all because they have a body part that Australia decided should not be shown.
It is time to no longer be silent about this issue. Mia Freedman has documented this issue which you can read about here and here on her blog.
We are women and we have labia's, deal with it.
I encourage everyone to watch the below video - it is an education we all need.
