While the vagina is the most popular term used for women's genitalia, the vulva is actually the correct term for all of the external organs. 🌸
Vulva: It’s the whole shebang that includes the mons pubis (pubic mound), the labia majora and minora, the all-important clitoris, the external openings of the urethra, and the vagina.
Vagina: The vagina is the muscular canal that connects the uterus to the vulva. It's what babies pass through during childbirth, as well as a woman's menstrual flow. 🩸
Why is it important that we differentiate between the two? 🤔
Because terminology, especially when referring to the female body, is important!
Most vulva owners need clitoral stimulation in order to orgasm, and far too many say they aren't getting enough of it during intercourse.
Knowing the specific and correct terms for body parts empowers vulva owners to take full ownership of them. 🌸
