After reading other peoples' messages from the class, I feel so much better about myself. When we were sitting around discussing our vagina's favorite car, favorite song, ect., I felt that I was the only one horribly uncomfortable. Like most of the other students I was not raised where speaking about vaginas was ok. In my house growing up not even the words period and tampon where not allowed to be said! When I told my mom what book i was reading for a class she was grossed out! She could not believe that I would spend money on a book with such a discusting topic. The sad thing is, is that I felt that way too before I read the book. Now, even though i am not completely done with it, I am serioulsy so glad to have opened myself up to this topic and maybe eventually feel comfortable talking about it. I too hope the next generation of females are more confident and excepting of their bodies than we are. Life would be so much more fun!
