"Im an odd one. I never give my fanny a second thought. I dont go round looking at it constantly and i certainly dont compare it to other womens. I also dont know of a man thats recalled in horror when hes seen someones vulva. Where all different and its bang out of order to make derogratry comments about others and make them feel like shit especially when its women doing it" Absolutely agee. At least you know who not to bother with from those comments though. | |||

I'm sure these threads have been done to death but I'm going to call it out every time I see and hear such comments. Women and girls with larger labia, like myself, shouldn't have to endure such negativety and ridicule because of their natural form. | |||

"I commented on the post you mention, in fact mine was one you copied , I said 10/10 neat and tidy which it is but that’s not putting anyone else’s noonie down ?! Mines not the prettiest hence why I don’t have any pics on here of it so I wouldn’t judge other people’s. As a bi lady I appreciate all shapes and sizes of lady parts x" It's the 'neat and tidy' that implies that the opposite is 'untidy and messy'. I'm sure you didn't mean to put anyone else down. | |||

"Hmm I'm not sure. I have seen a number of threads also celebrating large labia, but those "neat tucked away" ones don't tend to get slagged off in the process. Its that same thing you see in any body type thread, bbw or thin, big boobs or wee boobs. People will put down one group because they're not in it, or to garner favour with the other group. So I've been no help whatsoever, sorry " You're right. But why can't people understand that in order to be complimentary you don't need to qualify it with a derogatory comment about others? Ie "Your flaps are hot, I like small lips". Rather than "they're so much nicer than the beef sandwich some women have!" | |||

"I think porn has a lot to answer for - people consider a particular aesthetic to be the more desirable one. And the main one, if that makes sense? I think people see smaller labia as being natural, larger as being less so. " I hadn't thought of people seeing larger labia as unnatural! | |||

"I think porn has a lot to answer for - people consider a particular aesthetic to be the more desirable one. And the main one, if that makes sense? I think people see smaller labia as being natural, larger as being less so. " I'm guessing there are many, many people who watch porn who don't make comments like 'looks like a kicked over trifle'. I watch a lot of male gay porn and I don't refer to penises in a derogatory manner. Some think it's funny to refer to genitalia as something we laugh at in a comedy way. It's like any comedy; if it's aimed at you you may not find it funny | |||

As a guy I think that is totally unnecessary. I was brought up well and told if you can't say something complimentary - say nothing. I only post pics of my bits to people that ask, and whether they like them or not, I'm stuck with them. So I just get on with it. As for the ladies, I JUST LOVE THEM ALL. | |||

I think due to the prevalence of images of labia as being a particular way, some people think it should be. Look at the increase in cosmetic surgery for labia reduction. | |||

"Referring to labia as beef curtains or a smashed kebab reminds of the Inbetweeners. I have looked at mine before and thought they remind me of mating slugs though. I would not refer to someone else's in that manner." | |||

"From being derogatory about long labia? I don't know if this breaks the rules, referring specifically to another thread, but I feel I need to in order to confront the way people talk so disparigingly about large lips. On another thread started by a lovely lady with no intention of putting anyone else down, people felt the need to describe her vulva as: 10/10 No Turkey neck roadkill flaps here lol From what I can see it’s a similar to mine, everything inside and no ham so on that basis I have to award it a solid 10. Nice neat and tidy. 9/10. In stark contrast to some on here that resemble a kicked over trifle. Bang tidy A definite 10 , very neat and tidy x Neat n tidy Obviously some posters used complimentary language which didn't imply that large lips were ugly. Larger lips didn't even need to be mentioned at all in order to pay a compliment. Since around 50% of women have these so called untidy, ham/turkey neck/beef sandwich, messy, car crash, kicked over trifle type of labia, what exactly is to be gained be demonising them? " the irony of many making the immature comments couldn't even get a meet, let alone one with "perfect lips" time for some on this site to grow up... | |||

"Women's bodies have faced high levels of scrutiny since time eternal, yet onnthe whole, we are far less familiar with our most intimate areas than we should be. If you haven't seen it, I can highly recommend the recent TV programme "100 Vaginas" - no, it's not a Fabs bio but a fabulous piece to accompany a photographer's work to familiarise 100 women with their vaginas. I wish I'd seen it as a teen, when such insecurities usually start." I agree, that was a great programme | |||

"The men think they are being funny I think. I can't work out why the women would use phrases like that, I really can't. " I can't either - whatever happened to the sisterhood?! It's such pointless and silly spite in any case because no-one, absolutely no-one can help the genitals they're born with. It shouldn't come as any surprise that these can vary so much from woman to woman in size, shape or pigmentation in the same way so many other body parts do too since we're all unique and therefore different from one another. | |||

"I kinda wouldn't give it much energy. Some people are dicks on here, but they're allowed to be and they're allowed to like what they like too. The forum is filled with insensitive bellends and trolls so it's no place for the sensitive. If ppl says stuff that offends you then they've just proved that they're not you sort of person (along with being a bit twatty) but you can't change their view just by saying you think they're wrong. It's just a difference of opinion on what is acceptable to say. Let them crack on and they'll just make themselves look like idiots and alienate themselves from half of the vagina owners on fab....

None of us know how often someone has felt battered by such playground assaults. We don't know what may trigger something. Yes, it can be brutal but easy to ignore IF you feel resilient. I have been told mine is too dark and scary for oral. If I'm feeling vulnerable another such comment may hurt. If I'm feeling strong it's easy to brush off. I've had too many years challenging derogatory comments about vulvas on here and ignore them now. I wonder if ignoring them becomes condoning and then enabling? | |||

"I think you can extend that to "why bother being mean?". To coin a cliche, if you have got something nice to say don't say anything. We've all got opinions and straight talking is fine but if it's potentially upsetting to somebody, why bother. Just be nice people " It doesn't need extending. I know this and I apologised. | |||
