An artist in Brighton England is making The Great Wall of Vagina

Part of her mission statement:

"The sculpture comments on the trend for surgery to create the 'perfect' vagina. This modern day equivalent of female genital mutilation is a bizarre practice which suggests that one is better than another. Taste in nothing is universal and any desire

I approve in principle, but there isn't enough valium in the universe to get me through it.

Maybe you know women through your lactation consulting who might be interested? Or your midwife might know women?

I totally understand that it might be too much for you personally.

Yeah, Vagina rhymes with China and thus makes for a catchy project name. But, as even the artist says in the project description--those are not vaginas.

Using "vagina" as a generic term for female genetalia is is one of my pet peeves, and thus this I am annoyed more than inspired by this project.

Really? People get cosmetic surgery for that? I had no idea.

This is an interesting documentary segment from Australian TV on this very issue as it is there.
