So you guys are upset over the double standard or what? I understand that. I really would be pissed if I was in the situation where my child was in trouble for saying her vulva itched but the boy wasn't for saying his penis burned.

Now, what? How does that have to do with being upset over the word vagina? I understand you're saying you get upset when people misuse the word? Umm... well, no. It's not something that bothers or upsets me.

I think, basically, we just say vagina. It's just like saying "my penis itches" instead of "my urethra itches." Who cares if someone refers to their private as vagina instead of pointing out the particular part of it. Most people, especially those with the vagina, do actually know the difference in their vagina and vulva, labia majora, minora, urethra and asshole. It's just common to say "vagina." It's kind of like just speaking of the entire area. Vagina.

So I really just don't see it as a big deal. I think misspellings tend to irk me a tiny bit more than the misuse of a word, but neither bother me to the point of actually getting upset or irritated.

I hope you set the teacher and school straight for harassing a child who used correct anatomical nomenclature.

I know the anatomical difference, but what's the big deal? I'm not an anatomy student, so I just label everything down there the vagina, and it suits me just fine.

The only time "vagina" upsets me is when someone calls the whole damn thing a vagina.

I applaud anyone whose able to get their heads up there to 'see their vagina's.

Nope.
