On Seeing the Vagina Monologues
I saw, as my yearly tradition at least once, the Vagina Monologues. As always does the show made me think. What I was thinking about mostly is the fact that I have never seen my own vagina. I’ve seen other people’s but never mine.
The main reason I haven’t seen mine is because I’m physically disabled and bending into those impossible positions that many women have to get into to look at their vaginas is just about impossible for me. I can’t get on the floor and get back up easily. Usually if I’m on the floor it requires an EMT crew to come get me up. I don’t think that would appreciate doing that just so I could satisfy my feminine curiosity. Secondly, my legs don’t come apart very easily.
I would like to see what my vagina looks like. I’ll consult my OBGYN and see if she has any ideas. Maybe there are cameras or something and I could have a picture when I’m having an exam. I don’t know if this would work but it’s an idea.
I was thinking a digital camera. You could save or immediately delete.
