People with vaginas do not always bleed during or after sex. But when they do bleed during or after sex and it’s not because of menses, then it’s due to some injury in the vagina or vulva. As well, some sexually transmitted infections – Chlamydia is a biggie for this – can cause bleeding with or…

If we’re going to think of our genitals as big, any one of us, given the small range between them, we should think everyone’s genitals are big. We also need to accept that it’s ignorant or misinformed to think, presume or suggest that penises are big but vaginas are small, because we really are all about the same size. If thinking big is better for one sex, it’s also got to be better for the other. So, if you or someone else is going to go on about some big penis, you’d best get just as excited about the idea of a big vagina, and make having a big ol’Vagowski just as cool. And if you’re all hung up on the idea that the vagina be as small as it can possibly be, or is such a small thing, then you’ve got to accept that penises are small, too.

For the same reasons that your hair color is what it is. For the same reason you are as tall as you are. And for the same reasons other women have large nipples: It’s a blend of genetics and environmental influences. Depending on your genetic make-up and your upbringing (nutrition, chemical…

In a world where we all got filled in on the specifics of our genitals really well, it’d be an obvious question. But since most people don’t, a lot of people have questions like this, all the time. It’s no sweat, and there’s no reason to feel foolish for asking. Let’s first make sure we’re on the…

Wearing tampons when you aren’t menstruating isn’t a good idea in terms of risks of TSS and uncomfortable vaginal dryness, but doing so won’t have any sort of permanent effects on the vagina. Same goes with having intercourse: the vagina is a muscle, and use of it doesn’t cause atrophy – that doesn…

Oooooooooookay. Let’s try to go ahead and unpack all of this, once and for all. First things first: the vagina is a muscle. It’s not some flippety-floppedy passive tube, nor is it tissue like your skin. It’s muscle, like the muscles of your arms, legs or tongue. When we put something inside of it…

We get a lot of questions like this, so let’s try and clear up the matter once and for all. With a majority of people with vulvas, if you were nosing around in there when they hadn’t VERY recently given birth, you still wouldn’t likely be able to tell that they have had infants. As reproductive…

Sure do: that’s called pre-ejaculate. Some people call it pre-cum. Pre-ejaculate – a clear, thin fluid – appears from the penis when a man becomes sexually aroused, and can come from the penis at the start or arousal or erection, during some sexual activities, as well as before a full ejaculation…

This answer is going to require a diagram. Click the link below and open in a new window or tab. Cross section of the female abdomen I know the picture has a lot of labels, but try to locate the vagina on the diagram. Notice how it runs parallel to the rectum. In the body, the vagina is just ventral…

Twenty-three inches, ehh? I wear jeans with a 29 inch inseam. I have a pair of capris (aka clam diggers, pedal pushers, etc.) that have a 20 inch inseam. Gosh, imagine how you’d wear pants with a penis that was 23 inches long! What I’m saying is, there are a lot of rumors and urban legends. A twenty…
