Vajayjay By Any Other Name: Unpacking the Vagina, Vulva, and Pubic Hair with Nurses.

The Little Black Dress of Women's Health

Join us for a candid conversation with sexual health nurse, Barb, a veteran with over two decades in the field, and Peta, the founder of the Women's Health Education Network. This podcast peels back the layers on women's anatomy, shedding light on the misconceptions and myths that have long clouded the truth about female bodies. From the intriguing history of the clitoris, once erased from anatomy books, to the modern-day vanishing act of pubic hair, we explore it all. Barb brings her expertise and humour to discuss the unnecessary and often unregulated market of feminine hygiene products, the unrealistic portrayal of women’s bodies in the media, and the startling lack of knowledge about female anatomy among the general population. Prepare to be educated, entertained, and enlightened as we dissect everything you thought you knew about women's health and reveal the facts that everyone should know. This is not just a podcast; it's a movement to reclaim the narrative around female anatomy, one laugh and one truth at a time. Join us on this journey of discovery and dialogue, where no topic is off-limits, and uncover the beauty and complexity of women's health.
