No two vulvas are exactly alike. Could you pick out your own?! 🤔

We brought in a pencil drawing artist and found an incredible group of women who agreed to have their labia (the folds of skin around the vaginal opening) drawn.

The catch? They weren’t allowed to see the finished product right away. Instead, we hung their drawings alongside a collection of 12 completely unique sketches, all displayed on a gallery wall—and asked them to identify their own.

Only 2 out of the 5 in the group were able to correctly pick out their own labia.

It’s about time we start making these conversations everyday conversations. Flex is breaking the stigma and confronting the topic head-on—with better period products, educational content, and Flexpert support.
