Your vagina is perfectly normal
Graham Holloway, Jan 23 2020
A healthy vagina should taste just like that – a healthy vagina. The vaginal PH is between 3.5 and 4.5 (although it can change during the menstrual cycle) [1] so the vagina is fairly acidic in its taste. This idea that the vagina constantly needs cleaning has been driven largely due to the fact we live in a male dominated society that, for an incredibly long time, has decided that normal vaginal tastes and smells were unnatural and dirty. Due to this mindset, many companies these days push products meant to change the vagina’s natural smell and taste. Truth be told though; the vagina requires very little cleaning and how much cleaning you do is up to your discretion as the vagina is more than capable of cleaning itself [1] and this cleaning is evident by a mild white or yellowish discharge [2] but, much like the PH balance, discharge has been known to change during the menstrual cycle [3]. The idea that the vaginas natural smell and taste are unnatural and dirty can have nega

Sex Positivity and What it really means
Anonymous, Jul 02 2019
Sex positive means having an environment where one could talk about sex positively without the fear of being judged. Sex positivity is "an attitude towards human sexuality that regards all consensual sexual activities as fundamentally healthy and pleasurable, encouraging sexual pleasure and experimentation.” It is the feeling of liberation and freedom to talk about sex in a positive manner which should be appreciated by society. The terms and concept of sex-positive (or, alternately sex-affirmative and sex-negative are generally attributed to Wilhelm Reich). His hypothesis was that some societies view the sexual expression as essentially good and healthy, while others have a generally negative view of sexuality and seek to repress and control libido. Other terms used to describe this concept include pro-sex or pro-sexuality. The sex-positive movement does not, in general, make moral or ethical distinctions between heterosexual or homosexual sex, or masturbation, regarding these ch
