Vulva is to vagina, as penis is to testicles…so why don’t we call it what it is???

gain-logoI presented at Vulval Awareness Day on Saturday. Em from 92.9 hosted and said she’s realised she’s been telling her daughters the incorrect terminology; vagina instead of vulva for the external genitalia. She said she was blown away by the information. (If only there were a thousand women there!)

Following that she went on air and spoke about the issue so that women can know the difference between the two.

Em told me the radio station had complaints about the use of the world ‘vulva’. Note: they use the word ‘penis’ all the time. Still a long way to go…
