So now plastic surgeons are convincing women to voluntarily subject themselves to Genital Mutilation under a procedure called 'Labiaplasty'.
In a disgusting effort to create a market for their procedures, some doctors are now insidiously convincing millions of women that protruding or asymmetrical labia are 'unsightly'. They use phrases like 'tidying up' when it comes to labia.
According to the CBC news in Canada, genital mutilations were the 'most increased aesthetic surgery in 2013'.
If this bullshit is not actively and successfully fought, we will have a generation of people believing that labia are unsightly...and millions of women living in shame of their labia.
Before you laugh this off, consider the following:
In some countries, doctors successfully created a market for circumcision that now requires male children to be mutilated as a baby or risk having a 'weird' penis. This is marketed for 'health reasons' although the rest of the world simply teaches male children how to wash themselves.
Is anyone not aware of the dire negativity imposed on women by the beauty and fashion industry where women's bodies and skin are permanently flawed as they fall short of the plastic, photoshopped ideals?
MEN, lest you think this a 'woman's issue', ask yourself if you want to live in a world where women are even more afraid to show you their vaginas.
MEN have to help women understand that their labia are beautiful in ALL shapes and sizes!! Stop the mutilations!! Stop the shaming!
