"Clitoris" Is Not a Bad Word

I read a blog post about sex and marriage that came up on my Pinterest feed. In this post was the word "clitoris". What a gem, the clitoris. Except in the post, the word looked like this:

"Cl*tor*s"

As if it's a naughty word. Hint: It's not!

Here's a friendly reminder to everyone that the female anatomy is not dirty. Or shameful. You don't need to bleep it out or use cutesy little nicknames or hide certain letters. Same with male anatomy, but people don't seem to be as freaked out about le peen*.

Because the words for female anatomy are just as worthy of being used properly as the elbow or the ear lobe, here's a video clip from Grey's Anatomy that I love way too much.

*Yes, I know I just used a cutesy nickname for the penis. Oops.

Breakup Lyric

Period Fairy here! I haven't posted in a while--sorry about your tears.

U by Kotex had a sweet breakup song thing on Facebook. As you might guess, people were writing breakup songs about pads or tampons that have failed/embarrassed them. Yesterday U by Kotex asked us, the fans, to write a lyric for someone named Sarah to use in her next breakup song. A randomly selected lyric writer would win one free U by Kotex product.

Here's what I wrote:

My face wasn't the only thing you made red. 

And then here's a short video for you to enjoy. It's me! Doing a happy dance. Contain yourself--it's pretty impressive.

So, uh...what's up with that? ...I WAS THE RANDOMLY SELECTED LYRIC WRITER! Hooray!

Give me some lyrics of your own! Email them to jessie(dot)mullins5(at)gmail(dot)com or leave them in a comment below! COME ON! Get creative. Have fun. I'll feature them all in the next blog post.

Much love,
Period Fairy

P.S. Breaking the cycle totally pays. I'm gettin' some free tampons, suckas!

BONUS PICTURE!

VAGINA!

I get tickled with joy whenever I hear that word (vagina!) in movies. We can say that now!! Vagina. So, every time I hear it, I will post the clip for you to enjoy as well.

Period Fairy hopes you all had a wonderful Christmas (or whatever you celebrate) and wishes you a fantastic new year full of health, humor, love, and other good stuff.

We should all get shirts like this! And if you don't have a vagina...well? Wear it anyway??
