I want to share a message of love and acceptance. There is so much shame surrounding such a beautiful part of us! It may be the symbol of femininity, but we are told to pick, prune and pluck them. Since a young age I have always been so conscious of pubic hair and was horrified that mine grew earlier than my friend's. Shaving was expected and my sensitive skin didn't like it at all. A couple years ago I said no thank you to causing myself razor burns and rashes, now I shave if I fancy it, not because I feel like I should to be feminine or to be appealing to other people. It was hard but I have accepted my vulva as a part of myself, not separated as an object to be scrutinised by myself for flaunting stubble. Talking to my friends and family about my vulva portrait has started a beautiful conversation on self love and confidence that I will carry through with me in every aspect of my life. I love my vulva! I love my little bean of pleasure and my inner labia. But I also love my sensitive skin, my relentless pubic hair and my vagina that has caused me problems in the past.
This gallery is so important for showing vulva diversity and love for all of them! ️♡
