Anchor 1

There is not a lot of online material that allows you to get a better (and wiser) impression of what a real vulva looks like. Here are a few webpages though, not to be missed:

Me and my vulva, 100 women reveal all / The Guardian

Why I photographed 100 vulvas / BBC

Here is a small selection of the many websites where you can find illustrations of the vulva:
