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.

@delawen @vagina_museum yeah, definitely

i imagine this could also really mess up the self image of a cis girl that has not had sex before :(

there's also the built-in assumption that it's somehow bad for a girl or woman not to be a virgin. come on, ugh

it's all-around just an awful thing to say and believe

It is bad for a girl (or a boy) to not be a virgin. Please leave that for the adults.

@BoloMKXXVIII @delawen @vagina_museum i guess i could interpret this post in several ways:

"adults should not be having sex with minors": duh, of course they shouldn't

"minors should not be having sex with minors": abstinence-only sex education has been a huge failure and i don't think we should be going in that direction. proper sex education is the way forward
