Forget navel gazing...get out that mirror!
Warning: Links contain lots of talk about girlie bits and not in the happyfun way..

So over on stupid_free, a post is made mocking a post in vaginapagina discussing using hydrogen peroxide to cleanse themselves. wieimmer starts off the fun with this:

Oh, gosh. I'm a girl and I totally cringed at that. Seriously, can there be a TMI note? As much as I appreciate vag-cleaning tips, I'd appreciate a bit of a warning before I click on that. D:

People basically tell wieimmer to grow up, and how could she consider the links TMI when it says right in the post what it's about. Things still aren't horribly wanky until this exchange takes place:

bluemamie: If you were my daughter I'd send you to the bathroom with a hand mirror and some Planned Parenthood tracts. Stat.
:)

dindin: Because no one's ever complete without having examined their vagina with a hand mirror.

chrushdmb: actually, every women should examine themselves with a hand mirror.

dindin: Um, no. Every "women" doesn't need to, really. Frankly I have better things to do with my time and I'm well acquainted with my own anatomy.

crushdmb: Yes, yes you should. I've had doctors actually suggest it. And how long would it take? Five minutes? Tops? And what is more important than your health?

dindin: Hey, you want to sit around with a hand mirror, and your own crotch be my guest. I'll take care of my own health, thanks.

And it just goes downhill from there.

	This explains to me how Athena and... those other two goddesses I can't remember (Diana? Artemis? Something. has forgotten most of what she learned of Greek mythology) stayed virginal. They were banging each other! :D (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	But with goddesses "virgin" does not follow from "never having sex". Just ask Ishtar. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yeah, I think Hera could renew her virginity by bathing in some spring. Also, if I remember correctly, there was a period in the middle ages where they actually DID decide that lesbian sex didn't count, as it were. There's some poem by Aphra Ben that's basically like "Isn't it great that we can screw like bunnies and still be virgins, lol." (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Artemis/Diana (yay Romans!) and Hestia, I think. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Whose Roman name was "Vesta", hence "Vestal Virgins". (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That'd be Hestia. They kinda rhyme! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I should probably made it more obvious that it was supposed to be an extention of the above sentence, in reference to Hestia, yeah. Sometimes I forget that the intertubes do not actually function like real-time face-to-face conversations. (Reply to this)(Parent)
