#1 I want to be more confident in my own pubic part.

When I was young, I noticed that my pubic was not the same as other girls, even other women. Mum thought it must have been something wrong with me, so I took me to the doctor. The doctor said it had no problem, but it would change over time. This is my first sex education: finding myself different from everyone else.

Since then, I have been in pain for my differences and feel that no one will love me, so I have used all sorts of ways to shrink my labia (and have searched for surgical information). I was afraid to try sex because of it, and I didn't like it until now because I couldn't enjoy the process. Fortunately, however, no one has ever criticized my pubic part.

As I grew up, I gradually accepted myself and helped me to be more confident in other ways, like admiring the paintings of the Vulva Gallery. If I think every girl's pubic part is beautiful and full of strength, then I can also look at my own pubic part:) (Recommended reading:"picture" vagina, uterus, ovaries!) 12 pictures to understand the female internal reproductive system )

#2 thank my pubic and accompany me all the way.

When I was growing up, I didn't worry about what the Yin minister looked like, whether it met the man's "standards", until I became a stripper, and saw the yin of the A-piece actress, only to realize that my pubic "is not perfect": It has no bright color, nor is it complete without scars. I began to feel that my pubic part was not cute at all, so I became more and more concerned and even ashamed to show my lover. I've used a variety of creams and repair products, even to do laser hair removal, just to make it look "perfect."

Now I, still on my way to "love myself," I began to thank myself for my pubic part and loved what it was like.

I am a mother and have a five-year-old child. Since having a baby, I have learned a lot about the body, including seeing how amazing and strong it is, because the mass media has always stressed that the pubic part will change completely after production, during pregnancy, I had worried about whether the inner Yin would become different, the vagina will become flabby after childbirth, but this is not entirely correct. I think it's a wonderful thing to be able to carry life in my body! When I finished having a baby, the vagina gradually recovered over time, not as "vaginal conditions gradually go downhill", as some people say. I really hope someone will tell me about it during pregnancy to eliminate anxiety.

Now, when I look at my own vagina and feel the power I've never seen before, because I know it can bring a new life into the world, it's a great thing!
