ADVICE

Language for Going Down

  • Normalize going down on vulvas by using terms like "going down" or reclaiming "giving head".
  • These terms help destigmatize oral sex on vulvas and promote inclusivity.
INSIGHT

Shame and the Hygiene Industry

  • Shame around vulva smell and taste is learned, fueled by a billion-dollar feminine hygiene industry.
  • This industry preys on insecurities, creating unrealistic expectations about natural scents.
ADVICE

Vulva Hygiene

  • Clean your vulva externally with mild soap and water; avoid internal cleaning.
  • Internal cleaning disrupts the vagina's self-cleaning ecosystem and increases infection risk.
