I understand that some words can make us feel weird when we say them. And I understand that a lot of those words relate to sex or sexual health in some way. I respect that. If you want to call your vagina a kitty or a cookie or Lady Marmalade, that’s ok.
But… I’m a sex coach. If I can’t accurately spell the word “vagina,” then who can?
I’m a representative of the body of people who believe in the importance of sexual health education. So I’m not going to treat the word vagina like it’s bad or wrong. That would be like a math teacher writing B instead of 13 because it’s unlucky. It’s ok if you think it’s unlucky, but it doesn’t make much sense to teach math that way.
VaGiNaS are amazing and should be celebrated. Not shunned or censored.
If my emails go to your spam box, then so be it. I sincerely hope that doesn’t happen, but I’m willing to take the risk.
I stand in solidarity with vaginas everywhere ✊
