Guy Mansplains ‘Vulva’ Vs ‘Vagina’ To Women And It Goes About As Well As Expected

Women are used to dudes mansplaining all types of subjects to them — politics, technology, our own jobs, sexual harassment, feminism, our opinions, things we never asked for their opinion on in the first place — you name it. But one man took things to another level over the weekend when he mansplained a body part women possess that he does not.

It all started when The Guardian tweeted an article titled “Me and my vulva: 100 women reveal all.” The article was about a photo series (and film) created by Laura Dodsworth called Womanhood, where she shares “stories of 100 women and gender non-conforming people through portraits of their vulvas” meant to decrease stigmas around women’s bodies.

Naturally, this seemed the perfect opportunity for a man named Paul to educate us gals on our body part’s correct name — which he believes is “vagina.”




If there are any more Pauls reading this, the vulva is “the external female genitalia that surround the opening to the vagina; collectively these consist of the labia majora, the labia minora, clitoris, vestibule of the vagina, bulb of the vestibule, and the glands of Bartholin.” The vagina is located in front of the rectum and behind the bladder (i.e. inside the body). This is actual irrefutable scientific fact, no matter how completely convinced Paul is otherwise.

It seems poor Paul may be forever known as the Man Who Tried Unsuccessfully To Explain Female Anatomy To Females.
