I've got a good one for you all. Apparently, it's become popular with the younger crowd (like, teens & early 20's) to clean the inside of their vaginas. As in, cram a soapy washcloth or baby wipe up there & scrub-a-dub. Please, if ANYONE here is doing that - STOP IT! It's not good for you & will actually promote infections. Washing your external genitals really is enough. Kids of like how you're not really supposed to be cramming Q-Tips in your ear to get the wax out.

Oh yes, let's make a beeline straight from poop to p***y.

I think there is probably a lot of peer pressure to smell like a rose garden down there. Perhaps it's because being a cunning linguist is so much more an open topic of discussion these days (thanks to Carrie, Charlotte, Miranda and Samantha) and a lot of embarassing stories about stank v-j have probably made the rounds. I know comedians are definitely more open about riffing on this subject. But it must be a dilemma- trying to find that correct balance between being "healthy" while also not attracting the attention of stray cats and flies.
