7 lies about your vagina The vagina is often a taboo subject and people don't talk a lot about vaginas. Today we break down some of the most common myths about the vagina. Let's see what are the most common lies that people believe.

**Lie no 1:** **Discharge is disgusting** **True:** **DISCHARGE IS NORMAL** and not something disgusting. You know how you might have a white stain on your pants? That is normal, it is something your body does to clean and moisturise your vagina. That is lovely! **Lie no 2:** **Your vagina should not smell** **True: VAGINAS SMELL**, let's just accept that. The smell is totally natural and can change depending on time of month, what you eat, hormones etc. But, it is normal! Anyone who shames you for it, does not deserve to be near it. (Please be aware of the smell that indicates some diseases) **Lie no 3:** **It has to be tight** **True: VAGINAS ARE MUSCLES**, they stretch, move and get wider without becoming loose. Don't use a "vagina tightening cream", they are dangerous and completely unnecessary. If you want to do something to help after having a baby, do some Kegel exercises. **Lie no 4:** **You have to wash it** **True: VAGINAS ARE SELF CLEANING!** That is amazing, right? You don't have to wash it from inside. Please, trow away your "vaginal wash", because you really don't need it. Vaginas will smell and produce liquid, but that is all good stuff, not something you should wash away. Don't fall for those "cleaning" vaginal products such as perfumed wipes or gels, as those will throw off your pH balance. **Lie no 5:** **There is a perfect vagina** **True: ALL VAGINAS ARE PERFECT.** There is not "normal" or "perfect" vagina. The vulvas we seen in movies and porn only represent one of the million beautiful vulvas out there. Skin color changes, labias change, skin texture can change, and it is all beautiful. **Lie no 6:** **All girls have vaginas** **True:** Gender can seem confusing, but simply put, some people are born with the genitals that match their gender and some are not. It does not have to be complicated, and quiet honestly, **someone else's genitals are none of our business!** **Lie no 7:** **The G-spot doesn’t exist** **True:** Yes, **the G-spot exists**. If you can't find it, study the anatomy better and work harder.
