Pussy Portraits

Product Information

I love my beautiful c**t, it’s a gorgeous pinky red colour. It’s been appreciated by partners, too. I didn’t have sex until I was 25. I married in the 1970s and got a divorce on the basis of non-consummation: on our wedding night my husband said he had a headache. I thought, ‘Fair enough’ – but it went on for three years. It’s taken me years to get myself into a safe situation where I can do and say whatever I want. Honour killings still happen, even here in Britain. http://gigapeta.com/dl/3778872a9e9bab | http://rapidgator.net/file/a03b58b68160f a30a1dec06ccdd2b474 My early experiences of womanhood started with the women who raised me: my nan taught me about enjoying yourself, your body and who you are. My mum is my best friend, there’s nothing that I don’t share with her. I decided I wanted to wax my vulva, and I asked [her] to do it. My mum gave birth to me so there’s nothing that I have that she hasn’t seen. And I trust her.

I went to the doctor and, although I was too young [24] for a smear test, she did one anyway. I was sent to the hospital for a colposcopy, which involves a camera going into the vagina. A consultant said, ‘I’ve been doing this for 30 years and I’d be surprised if it wasn’t cancer’. Two weeks later it was confirmed. I felt hot, sweaty, shaky. ‘Cancer’ means dying, that’s what we all think it means. I was just 24, I couldn’t understand how this could be happening. I was surprised that I wanted to do Manhood because I thought my next project would be about women but I felt this gap. I felt like I knew women really well but I didn’t know men really well. Although it followed a similar setup to Bare Reality and Manhood, Laura felt Womanhood was different to the first two. I had a stage 1B grade 3, which is small, but nasty. Thankfully it was caught early. I had my cervix removed, the surrounding kind of tissue area and the top third of my vagina and, thank God, didn’t need further treatment, like chemotherapy. I can get pregnant, but because there’s no cervix there’s a high chance of miscarriage or early birth.Even Laura’s use of the term ‘vulva’ instead of vagina has caused some confusion on social media, with some people misunderstanding that the term is correct to describe what can be seen on the outside. Bare Reality made me feel comfortable in my skin as a woman. Womanhood made me feel powerful as a woman.’ Hollyoaks confirms truly mind-blowing twist as Peri Lomax and Romeo Nightingale’s huge secret revealed Dr Naomi Crouch, chair of the British Society for Paediatric and Adolescent Gynaecology, has also noticed a “marked increase in girls and young women seeking labiaplasty” over the last few years.” Shame is a really big problem for human beings,” she sighs. “Where I’ve found that, generally, men are under pressure to be ‘enough’ – big enough, getting laid enough, rich enough, man enough – women feel like they’re ‘too much’ – too fat, too hairy, too saggy, too female. Frankly, we just need to be as we are. Yes, you can look at the photos and go ‘Wow, we all look really different’, but it’s also about connecting with the honesty of these stories. Because if you find yourself feeling admiration, pride and inspiration for another person, it becomes easier to apply that to yourself, too.”

When Bare Reality finished, I felt very comfortable in my skin as a woman. I felt very tender, proud and protected. http://gigapeta.com/dl/3767764a6a648e | http://rapidgator.net/file/34e9da0b7cbd5 899bc65032bf8a060bfFirst there was 100 sets of breasts, then there were 100 penises and now photographer Laura Dodsworth has completed what she calls an ‘unexpected trilogy’ by photographing 100 vulvas. http://gigapeta.com/dl/3770442a061a4d | http://rapidgator.net/file/8e039c91b5ec1 a0c3bcfd40e8b539bcb

When I was a teenager, I’d go and spend the weekend with him. One night he got into bed with me and started touching me. The next day I confronted him. His reasoning was that he wanted me to realise that I had a beautiful body and that sex was a wonderful thing. I was like, ‘You’re not the right person to be teaching me any of this because you’re my father.’ I continued having pain, but I kept being told it was normal. It turned out I have endometriosis, uterine polyps and fibroids, which was a blow on top of a missing ovary. The really big deal was finding out that if I waited too long, I would be unlikely to conceive naturally, if at all. http://gigapeta.com/dl/3778529a70dd4b | http://rapidgator.net/file/ef2fab7e195fc b384ebb1eb23c4c1940 I never wanted to have children until I developed reproductive health problems. When I was 19, I had a Mirena coil fitted and that caused me to get pelvic inflammatory disease, which was excruciatingly painful. I grew a cyst on my right ovary very rapidly. I was in and out of A&E and I had to suspend my studies at uni. In the end I had emergency surgery that resulted in the loss of my right ovary and fallopian tube and they drained five litres of fluid from the cyst.http://gigapeta.com/dl/3774725aa02654 | http://rapidgator.net/file/015c0e90f05f9 f955635481b8a56939c I was awake throughout the procedure. He injected anesthetic into the labia and up into my bottom – and then just sliced away. In reality, my labia were probably quite small pieces of skin, but to me they felt like big elephant ears. I lay there thinking how much better my life would be afterwards.

Over a few weeks, I bled a lot between periods, and also after sex with my boyfriend at the time. I googled bleeding and it came up with lots of different things: an STI, hormonal imbalance, cervical cancer.

Undressing

When you talk to women about their vulvas, so many stories come up. I felt like I learnt new routes. A lot of the stories that came out were actually very difficult. It was things like traumatic birth, bad sexual experiences or even something innocent like starting your period for the first time. I was afraid of penises my whole life. First I wanted to have one. Then I entered puberty and my breasts grew, and I knew there was no way I was going to be a boy. Then I was hurt by penises. I was molested by my father and I had teenage interactions with boys who put pressure on me.
