"Designer Vaginas Fucked Up" Says Top Medical Journal

Forget the nose job, for her sweet sixteen, she wants a designer vagina. The popularity of elective genitoplasty has been on the rise for a while, and the demand for designer vagina surgery is said to be growing, in part due to "idealized images of genitalia shown in pornography and on private genitoplasty Web sites."

The practice has recently been condemned by the British Medical Journal, who claim that there is "a disturbing lack of data about the phenomenon, there has been negligible assessment about surgical after-effects -- and almost zero reflexion as to whether a labial "problem" exists in the first place."More and more women are said to be troubled by the shape, size, or proportions of their vulvas, so that elective genitoplasty is apparently a "booming business." Advertisements for cosmetic genitoplasty are common, often including before and after images and life changing narratives. Google produced around 490 000 results when we entered "labial reduction". Forty seven of the first 50 results were advertisements from clinics in the United Kingdom and United States offering cosmetic genital surgery. It's nice that women are looking at their vaginas, but it's too bad they're not happy with what they see.
