Vagina MuseumApr 23
This rather cursed screenshot was sent to us, and we regret to inform you that quite a lot of people seem to believe this myth, and related myths surrounding the vulva. These myths been around for literal millennia, even though there is no rooting whatsoever in reality. Let's take a little look at the history of misogyny and racism inherent in this belief...

@lumi @vagina_museum Probably not cis women, we can just check ourselves before and after losing the virginity and see that's not true.

My midwife claimed that there are many women who don't know well enough how their genitals look like. 😬
So we're speaking of a group of mainly cis-women, in their 20s and 30s, who had intercourse at least once in their lifes, more or less well informed and being long enough in Germany that they have the language skills to attend a birth preperation class (so the cultural barrier can't be that high). Still can't wrap my head around this.
