Vulva

The vulva (from the Latin vulva, plural vulvae, see etymology) consists of the external genital organs of the female mammal. This article deals with the human vulva, although the structures are similar for other mammals.

The vulva has many major and minor anatomical structures, including the labia majora, mons pubis, labia minora, clitoris, bulb of vestibule, vulval vestibule, greater and lesser vestibular glands, external urethral orifice and the opening of the vagina (introitus). Its development occurs during several phases, chiefly during the fetal and pubertal periods of time. As the outer portal of the human uterus or womb, it protects its opening by a "double door": the labia majora (large lips) and the labia minora (small lips). The vagina is a self-cleaning organ, sustaining healthy microbial flora that flow from the inside out; the vulva needs only simple washing to assure good vulvovaginal health, without recourse to any internal cleansing.

The vulva has a sexual function; these external organs are richly innervated and provide pleasure when properly stimulated. In various branches of art, the vulva has been depicted as the organ that has the power both to "give life" (often associated with the womb), and to give sexual pleasure to humankind.

    The Dead

    by: Wolf

    Is it wise to come to me
    To guide you spiritually
    Dead eyes stare back from the void
    Reflecting what I see
    I am the key that locks the door
    The link between the worlds
    Take my hand
    Dare to walk with fire
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Step aside leave them be
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Sacrilege, final sleep
    I am here to satisfy
    Your curiosity
    If you think it's worth the risk
    To be stuck with me
    There are things you cannot see
    That's why you come to me
    Take my hand
    Dare to walk with fire
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Step aside leave them be
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Sacrilege, final sleep
    Was it wise to come to me
    To guide you spiritually
    Your dead eyes stare back from the void
    Now you're stuck with me
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Step aside leave them be
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Sacrilege, final sleep
    Let the dead rest in peace
    Step aside leave them be
    Let the dead rest in peace
