Anatomy

A person’s height has no relationship to the size of their genitals – or, in your case, the length of the vaginal canal. The vaginal canal in any person isn’t even one static size, anyway: it changes. When we’re less aroused, the vaginal walls are tighter, and the back of the vagina and cervix are…

You can tell your partner that he’s incredibly misinformed. You might want to check out my answer to another question about vaginal tightness. But the short answer here is that your partner is woefully confused about sexual anatomy and arousal. The vagina does not permanently change due to inserting…

The membrane you’re referring to is the hymen, also called the vaginal corona. When fully or partially present, the hymen consists of thin folds of tissue that partially cover the vaginal opening. However, the hymen is something that usually gradually wears away – rather than “breaking” – over…

Actually, you sound perfectly normal. Contrary to what we are encouraged to believe by various media, porn, and certain plastic surgeons, labia normally come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. There are any number of completely normal variations. Labia can be large or small. They can be pink, reddish…

The way to check if you’re still a virgin is to ask yourself how you define virginity, and see if or how your definition matches up with your experiences. In other words, there is NO – and I mean none, zero, nunca, aucun, keine – physical way to determine if someone is a virgin, because virginity…

Well, first off, it’d be good to toss out the whole idea of the “cherry.” There are no fruit of any sort on or in one’s genitals (unless of course you decide to put some down there, in which case you’ll want to avoid anything with sharp edges, clean it first, wrap it in a condom, and not stick it…

A guy thinking that would be similar to someone from one culture looking at someone of another, who looks different or unfamililar, and presuming that because someone looks different from what they look like, or what they know or expect, that that person isn’t normal. Just as when that’s the case…

I’m sorry you had such a bad experience. However, please understand that that bad experience did not likely cause permanent changes to your vulva or vagina. While certainly, if you were tense or underlubricated, that could have caused a tear to the tissue of the vaginal corona, which may cause mild…

You know, I really wish I could get a hold of whomever started this obsession with vaginal “tightness” and have a few choice words with them. Most of the words I’d have to say would not be very nice. But since that person is not here right now, all I can do is try to clear up a few of the…

Most likely, it’s just your cervix. The cervix is the end of your uterus, or the beginning, depending on how you look at it, and the cervix and cervical canal jut into the back of the vagina. When you’re not highly aroused (arousal usually will pull the cervix further back), you can usually feel it…
