It's MMMMonday! Each Monday, we bring you special, maintainer-curated content intended to enrich your VP experience. Please note that you can find past MMMMonday posts using the "mmmmonday" tag.

Also, a quick reminder about the other places you can find VP: vp_bulletins for local announcements; contact_vp for questions and feedback on the way VP is run; the Vulvapedia for basic questions; and don't forget about our sibling community over on Dreamwidth!


Hey superstars! Do any of you do any volunteering? Would you tell us about it in the comments? We'd love to hear about all the cool things you're involved with! (Since folks may wonder: if your volunteer job is political/divisive in nature, we do still want to hear from you - just please keep safe space in mind when talking about what you do. Thanks!)

cervarix vs gardasil?

Im supposed to be getting the hpv vaccine soon. Google has notified me that there are 2 types available. Anyone have a suggestion about which one i should get? Are there any differences between them?
Also ive heard that gardasil hurts ALOT... That its the most painful shot and can cause pain for days after the shot; how true is this?

Please help me find this vagina book!

I figure if any comm on LJ can help me with this, it would be you folks!  This is about vaginas, but not mine...

The BF and I watched a movie the other day called My Awkward Sexual Adventure.  Funny little Canadian production.  In the movie, there was a coffee table book of labia.  The BF thought it would be something interesting to see, but we couldn't catch the title other than the word Blue.  The cover was blue and the one photo that the character turned to (twice) had a blue hue to it as well.  My googling keeps bringing up the big vagina coloring book and stuff by Naomi Wolf, but none of it looks like what I saw in the movie.  Does anyone know what I'm talking about?  Or is this book just made up for this movie...

And, as a side note, Google Chrome doesn't seem to recognize plural vagina.  I find that highly amusing.  Is it supposed to be like deer?  Haha!
