Ladies - Know Your Body!
May. 28th, 2009 08:34 pmPhotos of a 25 year old cervix through-out a single menstrual cycle (one month). NSFW, clearly!! And not safe for your lunch if bodily fluids gross you out!
I found it really, REALLY interesting, actually. And strangely liberating to see that all the things I experience with my darling vag are not strange or embarrassing, but a natural part of being a woman. I mean, I don't think I want to generally stretch out my vaginal fluids as a party trick, but having a photo of that and educating women as to how a healthy body behaves so they know when they're well or not well is really, really good.
It also helps shift some of the shame women feel about their wet, ever-changing sexual organs. We're supposed to be dry, free, easy, breezy! Well, that's not what being a woman is about most of the time. *nods* Not for me personally, anyway. TMI! HAhahaha! It's always time for TMI in my journal, I think!
Anyway, I thought it was a great website!
